That worries Sheik Mustafa Kamil Shbeb al-Jabouri, a tribal leader from a town south of Baghdad and a member of the Sunni Awakening movement. Dozens of former prisoners have resettled in his area. Each time one arrives home Jabouri sits down with him for a chat. "We give a little lecture to anyone from our area who's been released from Camp Bucca and come back," says Jabouri, whose tribal fighters have been working with American troops against insurgents since 2007. "We tell them that if they behave well, there will be no problems. If not, they will...
...companies rather than Iraqis. There has been no public hearing on the draft, whose details have largely been kept secret. Iraqi lawmakers fumed last July when U.S. Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman discussed the draft during a trip to the region, "when hardly a single parliamentarian had seen it," says Kamil Mahdi, an Iraqi who is senior lecturer in Middle East economics at the University of Exeter in Britain, and who spent Tuesday discussing the law by phone with several parliamentarians. He said several believe that the government should wait until the war ends before locking Iraq into long-term deals...
...hospital in Tibnine is woefully under equipped to deal with such an influx of people. "Nobody cares about us!" yelled Kamil Mustafa, 50, a baker from the village of Ainata.

Yet Gerhard Kamil, 45, is taking aim at the 53 million-gallon Middle Eastern malt-beverage market with a new product: malt granules that become a foaming, nonalcoholic beer by adding water. The Bavarian brewer is wooing soft-drink bottlers from Iraq to Indonesia with his "PlatoTec" process, which makes tiny, layered granules of malt at about $2 per lb. Tapping the nonalcoholic halal-beer and flavored-malt-drink market positions GranMalt against Heineken's Fayrouz in Egypt and Carlsberg's Moussy in Saudi Arabia...
...bombs to fall from the sky," he says. When he regained consciousness, his best friend Alif Shah was lying beside him. "A fire was burning inside his chest," Hassan recalls. "He was dead." The tribesmen on the ridge were too dazed and panicked to count the bombs, but Kamil Shah, who watched in horror from nearby Zambar village, says "80 to 100 bombs fell that night." His brother was up on the hill, and Kamil and several other villagers grabbed a few rope cots to use as stretchers for the wounded, but the intensity of the bombing forced them back...
