Michigan: More Than 100 Iraqis Facing Deportation After Mass Roundup
--------------------------------------------------------------------

In Michigan, lawyers have filed an emergency injunction to block the
deportation of a group of Iraqis. In recent days, more than 100 Iraqis
have been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in one
of the biggest roundups in years. Advocates say the Iraqis, many of whom
are Christian, could face torture and persecution in Iraq.
