Baghdad building now a landmark in anti-govt protests

The 14-story, Saddam Hussein-era building on the Tigris River has emerged as a landmark in the anti-government protests gripping Iraq. The structure has been abandoned since 2003, when it was bombed by the US-led forces in their invasion, but has now been taken over from security forces by demonstrators since October 25. They have sworn not to leave it.
