Csmonitor: Disorder deepens in liberated Baghdad
The US administrator for central Iraq left the post Sunday after just
three weeks in office. BAGHDAD – Fearful of going out after dark, waiting up
to 10 hours to fill their cars with gas, spreading rumors in the absence
of reliable media, watching landmark buildings set on fire and wondering
who is in charge, the residents of this capital are growing increasingly
impatient with the deepening disorder that is plaguing their lives more
than a month after US troops took over the city. "My worst fear is
chaos, of all hell breaking loose, and it seems like that is happening," says
the Jenan Khadimi, an American-Iraqi who teaches architecture at Baghdad
University.
