Baghdad Vibrant but Still Dangerous, 8 Years After US Invasion
US foreign policy changed the moment Islamic terrorists attacked the United States on September 11, 2001, and then-President George W. Bush declared a global war on terror. Soon afterwards, US forces attacked terrorist strongholds in Afghanistan, but the Bush administration also considered Saddam Hussein's regime a threat and the US invaded Iraq in March 2003. Eight years later, the capital still bears the scars of war. Ayman Oghanna reports from Baghdad.

Multiple Iraq Blasts - Baghdad
co-ordinated bomb attacks in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, has killed at least 63 people and injured around 185, say officials. blasts hit various locations, including al-Amil in the south and Halawi and Karrada closer to the centre. The bombings are the worst in months - and follow the withdrawal of US troops This is a whole rash of co-ordinated bomb attacks of the sort that we saw during the worst of the insurgency. One would assume that Sunni-based insurgents are behind it. The problem is the current extremely heated political climate. The vice president - Iraq's senior Sunni politician - is hiding out in Iraqi Kurdistan with a warrant on his head on charges of involvement in terrorism. A lot of Shias, including the prime minister, will no doubt conclude that this is his revenge - that he or people close to him will have unleashed this as revenge against the Shias and it Looks like a planning capability only available to al-Qaeda in Iraq, which is a mainly Sunni insurgent group.

Deadly Legacy - Iraq - August 2010
Seven years after the invasion of Baghdad, the Iraqi people are experiencing a devastating legacy. Babies are being born with severe deformities and cancer at a rate, which makes the effects of Hiroshima look tame. "Here look at her. So many things are wrong with her. It's all because of the fighting", says one stricken grandmother. The baby she clutches in a little pink towel has a cleft lip, a deformed arm, six fingers on one hand, and a kidney that bulges through her abdomen. Yet the doctors in this children's hospital in Baghdad are unfazed. "We see multiple cases like this", they say. Like all of the parents whose babies lie under the gravestones in the 'Childrens Graveyard', the doctors suspect that the cause may be the depleted uranium weapons used by US forces during the war. However they don't have the resources to provide much-needed data on what they describe as an "alarming increase". The Ministry of Health may refuse to comment on the problem due to suspected "pressure from the American Forces". Yet walking through the pock-marked centre of Baghdad wearing radioactive suits, workers from the Environment Ministry let the readings speak for themselves. Their clean-up may be ongoing, but whilst the Ministry of Health keep their silence, parents living in the areas around Baghdad say they are "too scared" to have more children. SBS

Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi Army parades in Baghdad's Sadr City: 'Victory Festival' after US withdrawal
The Mahdi Army, a militia formed in 2003 by Muqtada al-Sadr, went on parade in celebration of the withdrawal of US troops. In the "Sadr City" district of Baghdad, al-Sadr addressed the crowd via video link and congratulated his army for their "victory." The celebration was titled "Victory of Resistance and Liberation Festival," and comes as a formal event to mark the withdrawal of the US military from Iraq last December. Muqtada al-Sadr said, "America bet that the Iraqi people would receive it with flowers and that the young and the old would chant for it, but we bet that they would by targeted by bullets and stones, and this is exactly what had happened. The sounds of the weapons of the resistance deafened their ears and scared them, and they could not do anything to stop them, therefore they pulled out defeated and losers."

Iraq PM: Baghdad bomb meant to kill me
Iraq's prime minister has said an explosion inside Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone earlier this week was an assassination attempt. Nouri al-Maliki said that initial intelligence on the bomb that exploded opposite the parliament buildings on Monday suggested he was the target. However, he denied that the explosion signaled a deterioration in security in the area, which is meant to be one of the most secure in Iraq. "The preliminary intelligence information says that the car was due to enter parliament and stay there and not to explode. It was supposed to explode on the day I entered parliament," he told the Associated Press news agency on Saturday. Al Jazeera's Jane Arraf reports from Baghdad.
