Sunnis Urged To Join Iraqi Police

BBC

Senior Sunni Muslim clerics in Iraq have urged their followers to join the country's security forces.
Sunnis form the bulk of the anti-US insurgency, which frequently attacks the police and army.
A Iraqi government spokesman said the call on Sunnis to participate in the security forces was a welcome change.
Later, four policemen and a passing driver were killed by a car bomb in the so-called Sunni triangle, a stronghold of the insurgency.
The bomb in Khan Bani Saad, 20km (12 miles) north-east of Baghdad, exploded as police were checking it.
In another incident, a US marine was shot dead while conducting a security operation in the western city of Ramadi, the US military says.
