The Last? Or Another?

BAGHDAD - The United States on Tuesday suspended all land travel by U.S. diplomats and other civilian officials in Iraq outside Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone, amid mounting public outrage over the alleged killing of civilians by the U.S. Embassy's security provider Blackwater USA.

What is the evidence of the "mounting public outrage" in Iraq?

Is the U.S. laying low while things calm down, or putting pressure on Maliki to back down? The Iraqi government is already waffling on the "ban" of Blackwater claiming it's now "temporary". But given how popular the U.S. is in Iraq, you have to wonder if there isn't a bit of civil strife brewing over occupying black ops killing their citizens.

If this was occurring in, oh say, Alabama or Mississippi, how do you think citizens would react there?
