The United Nations reports a surge in Iraqi executions last month raising fears of revived death squads after the 2003 invasion. Despite this the overall November death toll fell to 659 from 979 in October, with over 8,000 killed this year. A funeral procession bombing near Baghdad killed 17, signaling continued danger. Local residents express fear and limit cross-neighborhood visits.
