Almost from Day One of the US occupation of Iraq, numerous protests by Iraqis have been reported by the media, even by the English-language media for the American audience. We have even read some reports of US troops firing onto Iraqi protesters.
My questions:
Has any researcher or organization collated available reports of Iraqi protests against the occupation, unpaid wages, and other problems, riots, instances of sabotage of pipelines and power lines, attacks on the US troops, etc. with a view to producing (preferably constantly updated) statistics of Iraqi protests (a la Iraq Body Count at <http://www.iraqbodycount.net/>, Iraq Coalition Casualties at <http://lunaville.org/warcasualties/Summary.aspx>, and Marc W. Herold's "A Dossier on Civilian Victims of United States' Aerial Bombing of Afghanistan" at <http://www.cursor.org/stories/civilian_deaths.htm>)? Has any researcher or organization mapped the social geography of Iraqi protests (visually, if possible), a la Mark Ellis-Jones, "States of Unrest III: Resistance to IMF and World Bank Policies in Poor Countries in 2002," April 2003, <http://www.wdm.org.uk/cambriefs/debt/States%20of%20Unrest%20III_04.03.pdf>?
