Follow-up to UN findings

Below there is a post that reports the UN findings that more that 3,700 Iraqis died in October. Events of the past 3 days should help to explain why that number has gone so high, and why it is clear that the US is not providing anything that approximates security for the people of Iraq.

From CNN:

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- More than 140 bodies have been found dumped across Baghdad over the past three days, police said Wednesday.

Police said 52 bullet-riddled bodies were found Wednesday, with 20 of them blindfolded, tied up and possibly tortured.

Police also discovered 29 bodies on Tuesday and 60 on Monday.

The dead are thought to be victims of Sunni-Shiite sectarian revenge killings.
