Iraqi paper: Areas surrounding Baghdad have become more violent than any time before

http://www.azzaman.com/english/index.asp?fname=news/2007-04-03/kurd.htm

<snip>

International media representatives and their companies are apparently no longer interested in covering stories of sectarian violence claiming scores of victims every day.

Only deaths in the range of hundreds of innocent Iraqis today capture international media attention.

...

While the troops are busy with Baghdad, the villages, towns and cities surrounding it have become more violent than any time before.

Baquoba is so violent that many ordinary Iraqis do not dare leaving their homes. Kidnapping incidents are on the rise and now take place during daylight.

Attacks by insurgents on U.S. troops on the fringes of Baghdad and nearby areas are reported to have surged, with nine Americans killed in the past 48 hours.
