addresses new members of the Iraqi Police Service during a graduation
ceremony April 1, 2004 in Baghdad, Iraq, one day after the grisly
killings and mutilation of four American contractors deepened fears that
security was worsening. Bremer vowed to hunt down those responsible for
ambushing the contractors in the restive city of Falluja, and those who
then torched the corpses and dragged them through the streets before
hanging them from a bridge.[Reuters]
