Common tragedy for Iraq refugees divided by sect


<snip>That's when Sunni lawyer Sami Humadi realised he would have to leave Sadr City, an eastern Baghdad stronghold of radical Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr and his Mehdi Army militiamen.

He lost his two sons and faced one death threat after another in the capital, which many speak openly of being divided soon into western Sunni and eastern Shi'ite halves.

He eventually fled to Falluja: "Now I'm here in this tent. It is my share of the democracy brought by the Americans."
