Iraq
Coordinates: 33°N 44°E / 33°N 44°E / 33; 44
Iraq (/ɪˈræk/, 
i/ɪˈrɑːk/, or /aɪˈræk/; Arabic: العراق al-‘Irāq, Kurdish: Êraq), officially the Republic of Iraq (Arabic: 
جمهورية العراق Jumhūrīyat al-‘Irāq; Kurdish: كۆماری عێراق Komar-i ‘Êraq), is a country in Western Asia. The country borders Turkey to the north, Iran to the east, Kuwait to the southeast, Saudi Arabia to the south, Jordan to the southwest, and Syria to the west. The southern part of Iraq is within the Arabian Peninsula. The capital, Baghdad, is in the centre of the country and its largest city. The largest ethnic groups in Iraq are Arabs and Kurds. Other ethnic groups include Assyrians, Turkmen, Shabakis, Yazidis, Armenians, Mandeans, Circassians, and Kawliya. Around 95% of the country's 36 million citizens are Shia or Sunni Muslims, with Christianity, Yarsan, Yezidism, and Mandeanism also present.
Iraq has a narrow section of coastline measuring 58 km (36 mi) on the northern Persian Gulf and its territory encompasses the Mesopotamian Alluvial Plain, the northwestern end of the Zagros mountain range, and the eastern part of the Syrian Desert. Two major rivers, the Tigris and Euphrates, run south through the centre of Iraq and flow into the Shatt al-Arab near the Persian Gulf. These rivers provide Iraq with significant amounts of fertile land.

Mandatory Iraq
The Kingdom of Iraq under British Administration or Mandatory Iraq (Arabic: الانتداب البريطاني على العراق al-Intidāb al-Brīṭānī ‘Alá al-‘Irāq) was created in 1921 following the 1920 Iraqi Revolt against the proposed British Mandate of Mesopotamia, and enacted via the 1922 Anglo-Iraqi Treaty.
Faisal ibn Husayn, who had been proclaimed King of Syria by a Syrian National Congress in Damascus in March 1920, was ejected by the French in July of the same year. Faisal was then granted by the British the territory of Iraq, to rule it as a kingdom, with the British Royal Air Force (RAF) retaining certain military control, though de facto; the territory remained under British administration until 1932.
The civil government of postwar Iraq was headed originally by the High Commissioner, Sir Percy Cox, and his deputy, Colonel Arnold Wilson. British reprisals after the murder of a British officer in Najaf failed to restore order. The most striking problem facing the British was the growing anger of the nationalists, who continued to fight against the imposition of British authority. British administration had yet to be established in Iraqi Kurdistan.

Mesopotamia
Mesopotamia (/ˌmɛsəpəˈteɪmiə/, from the Ancient Greek: Μεσοποταμία "[land] between rivers"; from Ancient Armenian՝ Միջագետք(Mijagetq), Arabic: بلاد الرافدين bilād ar-rāfidayn; Persian: میانرودان miyān rodān; Syriac: ܒܝܬ ܢܗܪܝܢ Beth Nahrain "land of rivers") is a name for the area of the Tigris–Euphrates river system, roughly corresponding to modern-day Iraq, Syria and Kuwait, including regions along the Turkish-Syrian and Iran–Iraq borders.
Widely considered to be the one of the cradles of civilization by the Western world, Bronze Age Mesopotamia included Sumer and the Akkadian, Babylonian, and Assyrian empires, all native to the territory of modern-day Iraq. In the Iron Age, it was controlled by the Neo-Assyrian and Neo-Babylonian Empires.
The indigenous Sumerians and Akkadians (including Assyrians and Babylonians) dominated Mesopotamia from the beginning of written history (c. 3100 BC) to the fall of Babylon in 539 BC, when it was conquered by the Achaemenid Empire. It fell to Alexander the Great in 332 BC, and after his death, it became part of the Greek Seleucid Empire.

Bodies of Iraq Troops Killed by IS Flown to Baghdad | VOA News
Islamic State group militants attacked an Iraqi army position in the northern governorate of Kirkuk, killing two military officers and wounding three soldiers, Iraq’s security media office said in a statement on Sunday. The Iraqi Security Media Cell said militants belonging to the extremist group late on Saturday targeted the military position in the district of Dibis with light and medium weapons but did not provide further details. IS, in a late Saturday statement, claimed responsibility for the attack on their website. This comes amid an Iraqi military crackdown on IS sleeper cells near the country’s borders over the past month.

ISIS Killing Rooms Of Mosul Are Filled With Bodies And Mystery
MOSUL, Iraq — In March, VICE returned to Mosul for the first time since the war against ISIS was declared over eight months ago. While life may be returning to normal in the eastern half of the city, on the other side of the river — where the fighting was most intense — the scale of rebuilding that needs to be done is monumental. It’s estimated there are still 8 million tons of conflict debris that need to be moved before reconstruction can start, equivalent to three times the size of the Great Pyramid of Egypt. About 75 percent of that rubble is in West Mosul, and it’s mixed with so much unexploded ordnance that experts say this is now one of the most contaminated spots on the planet. In the Old City, where ISIS made its last stand, residents have slowly started to come back – a few bus...

Indians Dead in Iraq | MEA Identifies Dead Bodies in Mosul as Indians
Iraqi authorities confirmed on Tuesday that 38 out of 39 bodies found in an Iraqi mass grave last year were Indian construction workers. The workers were abducted when Islamic State militants overran Mosul in 2014. The bodies were found buried near the village of Badush, northwest of Mosul, in an area that Iraqi forces recaptured last July.

MOSUL, Iraq — In March, VICE returned to Mosul for the first time since the war against ISIS was declared over eight months ago.
While life may be returning to normal in the eastern half of the city, on the other side of the river — where the fighting was most intense — the scale of rebuilding that needs to be done is monumental.

About 75 percent of that rubble is in West Mosul, and it’s mixed with so much unexploded ordnance that experts say this is now one of the most contaminated spots on the planet.
In the Old City, where ISIS made its last stand, residents have slowly started to come back – a few business owners hoping to repair shops, and families who have no other option but to live in their damaged homes. Some water tanks have been trucked in, and electricity cables have been temporarily patched together along some streets, but the place feels deserted, and in some ways the scene was not that different from how it looked shortly after the fighting.

---------------------------------------
CAPTION: As the U.S. body count in Iraq for October reached 100, a bomb exploded in a Baghdad neighborhood, killing at least 31 Shiite job seekers. ( Oct. 30)
----------------------------------------
[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE]
(Various from Iraq Blast 2)
The victims this time were men who simply wanted jobs. They had woken up early to join a line for day laborers at a market in Baghdad's sprawling Sadr City neighborhood. Just after sunrise, next to food stalls and kiosks, a bomb exploded. It killed at least 30 people and wounded more than 50.
Most of the victims were Shiites, as is most of the surrounding neighborhood.
The U-S military still has Sadr City under a tight cordon as part of its search for a Shiite death squad commander. The week of U-S roadblocks and checkpoints had appeared to help dampen the violence here, until today.
(something with U.S. troops -- maybe the video from yesterday)
The bombing comes on the same day the U-S announced the death of the hundredth U-S servicemember this month.
The news came without any fanfare -- it was a Marine who died fighting Sunni insurgents in Iraq's vast Anbar province.
Since the war began, the death toll has only been higher in three other months -- the last time it was any higher than this was almost two years ago, in January 2005.
The military attributes it to a surge in violence during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which just ended, and an ongoing operation here in Baghdad to clear insurgents.
(standup)
News about the death toll comes at a particularly sensitive time for the Americans, not just because of the upcoming midterm elections. The Iraqi prime minister is putting pressure on the U-S to let him take control sooner of his country's security forces, and this high death toll could certainly be a factor in those discussions.

News about the death toll comes at a particularly sensitive time for the Americans, not just because of the upcoming midterm elections. The Iraqi prime minister is putting pressure on the U-S to let him take control sooner of his country's security forces, and this high death toll could certainly be a factor in those discussions.

Islamic State group militants attacked an Iraqi army position in the northern governorate of Kirkuk, killing two military officers and wounding three soldiers, Iraq’s security media office said in a statement on Sunday.
The Iraqi Security Media Cell said militants belonging to the extremist group late on Saturday targeted the military position in the district of Dibis with light and medium weapons but did not provide further details.
IS, in a late Saturday statement, claimed responsibility for the attack on their website.
This comes amid an Iraqi military crackdown on IS sleeper cells near the country’s borders over the past month.
Iraq’s Counter Terrorism Service launched airstrikes targeting the group’s positions in the western desert of the Anbar province and in the Hamrin mountains near Kirkuk, killing 27 militants.
IS’s territorial control in Iraq and Syria was crushed by a years-long US-backed campaign, but its fighters continued with sleeper cells that have killed scores of Iraqis and Syrians. (AP) #iraq #news #voanews

More than 100 people have been killed and 150 injured in a fire at a wedding party in northern Iraq. The blaze tore through a large events hall after fireworks were lit during celebrations. Early reports indicate the building may have been made of highly flammable materials, contributing to its rapid collapse. Madison Watt reports.

MOSUL, Iraq — In March, VICE returned to Mosul for the first time since the war against ISIS was declared over eight months ago.
While life may be returning to normal in the eastern half of the city, on the other side of the river — where the fighting was most intense — the scale of rebuilding that needs to be done is monumental. It’s estimated there are still 8 million tons of conflict debris that need to be moved before reconstruction can start, equivalent to three times the size of the Great Pyramid of Egypt. About 75 percent of that rubble is in West Mosul, and it’s mixed with so much unexploded ordnance that experts say this is now one of the most contaminated spots on the planet.
In the Old City, where ISIS made its last stand, residents have slowly started to come back – a few business owners hoping to repair shops, and families who have no other option but to live in their damaged homes. Some water tanks have been trucked in, and electricity cables have been temporarily patched together along some streets, but the place feels deserted, and in some ways the scene was not that different from how it looked shortly after the fighting.

(30 Oct 2006) HEADLINE: New Iraq Violence, U.S. October Deaths Reach 100
---------------------------------------
CAPTION: As the U.S. body count in Iraq for October reached 100, a bomb exploded in a Baghdad neighborhood, killing at least 31 Shiite job seekers. ( Oct. 30)
----------------------------------------
[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE]
(Various from Iraq Blast 2)
The victims this time were men who simply wanted jobs. They had woken up early to join a line for day laborers at a market in Baghdad's sprawling Sadr City neighborhood. Just after sunrise, next to food stalls and kiosks, a bomb exploded. It killed at least 30 people and wounded more than 50.
Most of the victims were Shiites, as is most of the surrounding neighborhood.
The U-S military still has Sadr City under a tight cordon as part of its search for a Shiite death squad commander. The week of U-S roadblocks and checkpoints had appeared to help dampen the violence here, until today.
(something with U.S. troops -- maybe the video from yesterday)
The bombing comes on the same day the U-S announced the death of the hundredth U-S servicemember this month.
The news came without any fanfare -- it was a Marine who died fighting Sunni insurgents in Iraq's vast Anbar province.
Since the war began, the death toll has only been higher in three other months -- the last time it was any higher than this was almost two years ago, in January 2005.
The military attributes it to a surge in violence during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which just ended, and an ongoing operation here in Baghdad to clear insurgents.
(standup)
News about the death toll comes at a particularly sensitive time for the Americans, not just because of the upcoming midterm elections. The Iraqi prime minister is putting pressure on the U-S to let him take control sooner of his country's security forces, and this high death toll could certainly be a factor in those discussions.

Iraqi authorities confirmed on Tuesday that 38 out of 39 bodies found in an Iraqi mass grave last year were Indian construction workers. The workers were abducted when Islamic State militants overran Mosul in 2014. The bodies were found buried near the village of Badush, northwest of Mosul, in an area that Iraqi forces recaptured last July.
Iraq
Coordinates: 33°N 44°E / 33°N 44°E / 33; 44
Iraq (/ɪˈræk/, i/ɪˈrɑːk/, or /aɪˈræk/; Arabic: العراق al-‘Irāq, Kurdish: Êraq), officially the Republic of Iraq (Arabic: جمهورية العراق Jumhūrīyat al-‘Irāq; Kurdish: كۆماری عێراق Komar-i ‘Êraq), is a country in Western Asia. The country borders Turkey to the north, Iran to the east, Kuwait to the southeast, Saudi Arabia to the south, Jordan to the southwest, and Syria to the west. The southern part of Iraq is within the Arabian Peninsula. The capital, Baghdad, is in the centre of the country and its largest city. The largest ethnic groups in Iraq are Arabs and Kurds. Other ethnic groups include Assyrians, Turkmen, Shabakis, Yazidis, Armenians, Mandeans, Circassians, and Kawliya. Around 95% of the country's 36 million citizens are Shia or Sunni Muslims, with Christianity, Yarsan, Yezidism, and Mandeanism also present.
Iraq has a narrow section of coastline measuring 58 km (36 mi) on the northern Persian Gulf and its territory encompasses the Mesopotamian Alluvial Plain, the northwestern end of the Zagros mountain range, and the eastern part of the Syrian Desert. Two major rivers, the Tigris and Euphrates, run south through the centre of Iraq and flow into the Shatt al-Arab near the Persian Gulf. These rivers provide Iraq with significant amounts of fertile land.
