BAGHDAD - Hundreds of followers of a radical Shiite cleric in Iraq have taken to the streets to protest a proposed security agreement between Iraq and the United States. If they add each weeks demonstration numbers to a cumulative total they can reach the million man protest goal in about 60 years.
The supporters of cleric Muqtada al-Sadr say the proposed deal would lead to a permanent U.S. occupation of Iraq. They held their protest Friday in the southern city of Kufa and shouted slogans such as: "No to America."
