Let's compare the title of
this AP article:
Hamas, Fatah groups announce truce
and the contents of the first paragraph:
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Gunmen fired on the Palestinian foreign minister's convoy on Sunday and militants launched mortar shells at President Mahmoud Abbas' office in a daylong wave of factional violence that killed three people.
The article
eventually gets to the truce in the second paragraph. So tell me, would an article from Iraq get as rosy a headline in the midst of political upheaval, nay, civil war?
