Aid Workers Find Iraq Too Unsafe to Help 1 hour, 10 minutes ago By MARK FRITZ, Associated Press Writer Relief workers stepping gingerly into the postwar pieces of a police state are finding something akin to anarchy in Iraq (news - web sites): angry urban areas that need water and medicine but that are too unstable for somebody to safely deliver it. The military push to Baghdad has left behind cities empty of police officers and filled with chaos, casualties and the rampant looting of everything from medicine to ceiling fans, humanitarian workers say. Baghdad itself has hospitals overflowing with so many dead and wounded that the Red Cross has lost count.
