The Los Angeles Times is reporting that some cities in Iraq including Fallujah may be barred from participating in upcoming national elections because of continuing violence. The report was based on an interview with U.S. Lt. General Thomas Metz. Metz said “We’d have elections before we let one place like Fallujah stop elections. The rest of the country can go on about a process that heads right for an election.” Metz is the second highest ranking military official in Iraq.
