al Qaeda Executes 14 Kidnapped Iraqi Policemen

If there is any doubt about the security situation in Iraq, or who is charge, this incident should settle that debate:
Iraqi police found the bodies of 14 policemen on Friday, all shot in the head, and an al Qaeda-linked group said it had killed them to avenge the alleged rape of a woman last month.

[...]A group called the Islamic State in Iraq said in an Internet statement it had kidnapped 18 men working for the Shi'ite-dominated Interior Ministry following "the rape of our sister ... Sabreen Janabi."
