BAGHDAD, Iraq -- Authorities found the mutilated bodies of 60 men
in Baghdad in the 24 hours ending Tuesday morning, likely the latest
victims of the sectarian death squads that roam the capital.

The bullet-riddled bodies all had their hands and feet bound and
showed signs of torture _ hallmarks of death-squad killings, police
1st Lt. Mohamed Khayon said.

The victims were from 20 to 50 years old, and their bodies had been
dumped in several neighborhoods.

a Sunni parliament member told The Associated Press. "They (Shiite
militias) consider Sunnis terrorists who must be killed. If the zero
hour is coming, we will take the decisions needed to defend ourselves."
