The Arab Street Speaks Again (From Baghdad)

This story deserves much more attention than it's getting.
"BAGHDAD (AFP) - More than 100 children held in a prison celebrated their freedom as US marines rolled into northeast Baghdad amid chaotic scenes which saw civilians loot weapons from an army compound, a US officer said. "Around 150 children spilled out of the jail after the gates were opened as a US military Humvee vehicle approached, Lieutenant Colonel Fred Padilla told an AFP correspondent travelling with the Marines 5th Regiment."
"Hundreds of kids were swarming us and kissing us," Padilla said. "There were parents running up, so happy to have their kids back."
