Al-Jazeera continues to emphasise the American killing of Iraqi civilians in its news reporting. Today's top story bears the headline "Killing of Ten Iraqis by American Force's Fire in Faluja". The story reports that in response to a call from the Imams in the city's mosques, a group of Iraqis came out to protest for the removal of American forces from Iraq. The Americans fired on the protesters, killing ten and wounding seven.

In another incident, according to the Al-Jazeera reporter, the US forces killed an unarmed civilian in the At-Tahrir Square in the centre of Baghdad. He forces believed he was hiding weapons under his robes. The soldiers took the body away and wouldn't let any of the locals approach the area.

Another story, including pictures, describes how, in spite of the American presence, many residents of Tikrit celebrated Saddam's birthday. Al-Jazeera still refers to Saddam as "the Iraqi President".

The story reports (and shows) that signs appeared on many of Tikrit's walls reading, "Yes, yes, to the leader Saddam Hussein, and death to the Americans and the Zionists". Other signs read "Happy Birthday Saddam Hussein" and "Saddam We Love You".
