"Iraqi villagers kill 5 insurgents"

Interesting news brief from Australia's ABC:

The residents of a small Iraqi village have killed five insurgents who had attacked them for voting in last weekend's national elections.

Several other insurgents were also wounded...

The insurgents' cars were then set alight.

Al-Mudhiryah's tribal sheikh says his people are sick of being threatened by Islamic extremists.

There's the possibility that this is a fake report or some other form of propaganda. If not, it's pretty good news.

Meanwhile, some on the other side are not so happy. However:

Anyone who thinks this is bad news has one thing in mind and it isn't the welfare of the Iraqi people. Only a sick mind would hope for bad news and belittle good because it doesn't go well with their political agenda.
