Two stories... Baghdad, April 6 -- On the streets of Baghdad neighborhoods long 
defined by differences of faith and politics, signs are emerging that 
resistance to the U.S. occupation may be growing from a sporadic, underground 
effort to a broader insurrection by militiamen who claim to be fighting in the 
name of their common faith, Islam. Meanwhile, back in the good ol' USA, the

fast-mounting death toll in Iraq, an embarrassing month of testimony in the 
Sept. 11 hearings and flagging support for his domestic policies.
