I agree with you -- humanitarian crises would be more like it! CNN reporting that Iraqi's are no longer allowed to leave Baghdad -- checkpoints around the city are now closed by the Iraqi military.

In the neighborhood closest to the airport, Iraqi military going around a neighborhood with loud speakers in jeeps telling the people to leave that neighborhood and head for the airport.

Iraqi authorities have switched off the lights in the city according to CNN.
