Baghdad barrier to go on despite Maliki opposition
Picture

Iraqi residents of Baghdad's Adhamiyah district demonstrate yesterday on the streets against the building of a three-mile long concrete wall that the US military announced last week to separate Baghdad. The US military said Monday it will review measures to secure Baghdad after Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki ordered to stop building a tall concrete wall around the dangerous Sunni enclave of Adhamiyah.
