Iraqis seize on Egyptian unrest in protests

None

Iraqis are seizing on Egypt's unrest to protest what they call corruption in their own security forces, rampant unemployment and scant electricity and water supply.

 

There have been small scattered demonstrations across the capital as Sunni and Shiite clerics warned in Friday prayers that poverty, oppression and corruption could spark similar uprisings in Iraq. (AP)
