This story is really starting to make the rounds through the blogosphere. CBS News correspondent Laura Logan sent this report in to CBS News on the battle for Haifa Street, between the insurgents and Iraqi troops. CBS News refused to air the video on their evening news broadcast, to the frustration of Logan. Instead, CBS News placed Logan's report on their website. The video is especially disturbing since it not only shows the Iraqi security forces are unable to stop the insurgents, but also these same Iraqi security forces are engaged in their own "ethnic cleansing" program of indiscriminate killing of civilians. Logan's report completely contradicts the Bush administration's PR-spin on how the U.S. troop escalation in Iraq will provide the needed security around Baghdad for the Iraqi government.
Here is Logan's report via YouTube:
