Disguised rebels kill 6 at Iraq school By Lee Keath ASSOCIATED PRESS September 27, 2005 BAGHDAD -- Terrorists in Iraq yesterday dragged five Shi'ite Muslim schoolteachers and their driver into a classroom, lined them up against a wall and gunned them down, an illustration of sectarian divisions ahead of a crucial constitutional referendum. The shooting was a rare attack on a school amid Iraq's relentless violence, and it was particularly stunning since the gunmen targeted teachers in a school where the children were mainly Sunnis. Classes had just ended at the Al Jazeera Elementary School in the village of Muelha, 30 miles south of Baghdad, when the shooting took place at about 1:15 p.m. Police Capt. Muthana Khaled said that as five Shi'ite teachers got into a minivan, two cars pulled up carrying gunmen disguised as police officers. The nine gunmen forced the teachers and their driver out of the van in front of students who were milling outside the school. The attackers dragged the six men into an empty classroom and fatally shot them, Capt. Khaled said. The attackers escaped.
