And You Think We Have Tough Neighborhood Associations

Ever have a battle with your homeowner's association? It probably pales in comparison to the way they solve neighborhood problems in Iraq:

Former Sunni insurgents asked the U.S. to stay away, then ambushed members of al-Qaida in Iraq, killing 18 in a battle that raged for hours north of Baghdad, an ex-insurgent leader and Iraqi police said Saturday.

And they won't let al-Qaida put up an outdoor basketball net, either.
