BAGHDAD A senior U-S commander has been wounded by small arms fire while inspecting a security wall being built around a Sunni enclave in Baghdad.The military says the attack was in an area whose residents have been victims of retaliatory mortar strikes by Shiite militants — often following bombings blamed on Sunnis.
Construction of the wall has drawn strong criticism from residents who say it is a form of sectarian discrimination. Followers of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr (mook-TAH’-duh ehl SAH’-dur) say they fear Shiite areas in Baghdad, such as Sadr City, will be next to see the U-S-built barriers.
Much of the construction is being done at night by troops wearing night-vision goggles. But the officer was wounded while conducting a daytime survey. The military has not released his identity.
