In the second hour, John King intros possibly the most honest look we've seen at the daily reality of life in Baghdad -- the executions, the horrors of bound and tortured bodies discovered every morning, the unbelievable grief and hate and fear. The piece comes with a graphic-content warning.

Length: 4:20 / 4:31 / 5:49

Michael gets dragged out of bed at 3 a.m. to respond to a breaking news story that Muqtada al-Sadr is currently in Iran. The US government paints it as his having fled there in fear for his safety; however, there is no proof that he is there and certainly none that we have him on the run.

(I don't think anyone is surprised by these allegations, but let's face it... it will be a long, long time before anyone accepts US "proof" about anything again. And from this administration? They wouldn't be believed if they claimed the sky was blue.)
