The incident underscores dangers faced by Western contractors in Iraq as heavy convoy strikes disrupt supply lines and drive workers to riskier jobs.

Army finds no proof of widespread POW abuse in Iraq
An Army inquiry into interrogation techniques in Iraq found no evidence that abuse by U S military police or intelligence officers is widespread. The review is ongoing and not a criminal probe of last fall’s cases involving the 372nd Military Police Company. Brig. Gen. Janis Karpinski said she saw abuse photos and urged independent investigation. Amnesty International alleged a pattern of torture and called for a full inquiry. A U S occupation spokesman said abuse is being aggressively investigated and careers and charges will follow.

Denny McKeown notes cicadas bring free soil aeration and little damage to plants while Kritsky estimates Brood X at least 5 billion in southwest Ohio. The insect’s chorus, though loud, is unavoidable and some gardeners fear the afterglow of dying bodies. Plants benefit from nutrients as bark and trees remain unharmed.
