baghdad -- the u.s. military is walling off at least 10 of baghdad's most violent neighborhoods and using biometric technology to track some of their residents, creating what officers call "gated communities" in an attempt to carve out oases of safety in this war-ravaged city.

okay blah blah blah....this is the good part.......

"they've been doing it in florida, and the old people seem to like it," joked the platoon's leader, sgt. 1st class charles schmitt, 37, as he watched his team create the public entrance to the new gated community.

In every gated community I've ever lived in, 90% of the time the gate didn't work and defeated the point.
