"Sectarian and ethnic cleansing continued apace. In Amriya, dead bodies were being found on the main street at a rate of three a day. People were afraid to approach the bodies or call an ambulance or the police for fear that they would be found dead the next day. In Abu Ghraib, Dora, Amriya, and other mixed neighborhoods, Shias were being forced out. In Maalif, Sunnis were being targeted. Those who were expelled from their homes would not soon forget it. They would join militias seeking revenge."
