>> well, we are learning that soldiers dressed as american soldiers, were actually talking english when they knocked on people's doors. people thought it was a u.s. patrol even though u.s. soldiers are rarely seen on the streets of baghdad these days. the attack happened just 15 miles south of where i stand here the fox news baghdad bureau. it's a sunni neighborhood. which has been a haven for the so-called sons of iraq. these are the insurgents you were talking about who some two years ago turned on their former pay masters, al qaeda. and forced alongside the americans that helped bring about a degree of stability that is enjoyed here in iraq today. there are some gruesome details coming out. one daughter talks about how her mother was gunned down after she went to the door thinking it was the americans. the killers opened fire, shooting her and her two sons. those among the 24 people killed that you were telling us a short moment ago. indeed, seven were found alive, still handcuffed, lucky to be very much alive today. this is actually going to provoke a wider problem here in iraq. the so-called sons of iraq have been waiting to be incident be grated into wider iraqi society. unfortunately, the government has been neglecting these people and they're increasingly marginalized which is just adding to the political turmoil here. now, al qaeda thrives on turmoil. this is particularly, however, a revenge attack because they -- the sons of iraq turned on al qaeda back in 2007. all in all is creating intense circumstances here. we just had elections but no new government is formed and is getting people worried that there could be increased violence in the weeks ahead. harris, back to you. >> heart rendering to think four people opened their doors to those killers think they were americans. dominic reporting live from baghdad. thank you. here in the u.s., two american women known as jihad jamie and jihad jane now facing federal terror charges. one of them turned herself in yesterday, 31-year-old jamie paulin ramirez dubbed jihad jamie in the jihad jane flu to the u.s. surrounding to the fbi. she is a former nursing student in colorado. one of several people detained in ireland nor plot to kill cartoonist. charged with conspiracy to commit terrorism. this woman la rose already facing charges in the case. she is the one used the internet screen name jihad jane. according to prosecutors, the two women knew each other, they had worked with a grouch muslim extremists based in ireland. julie joins us from the washington newsroom. >> hi, harris. attorneys with the u.s. attorney's office in philadelphia would not tell us whether ramirez is now cooperating cooperating with authorities in cass. we know jamie flew from ireland to philadelphia with her 6-year-old son knowing she would be arrested as soon as she landed. the 31-year-old mom is ho is reportedly pregnant remains in custody and her son is now in child protective custody in philly. federal prosecutors accuse ramirez of plotting on line to attend a terror training camp along with 46-year-old colleen la rose known as jihad jane who is from pennsylvania. la rose pleaded not guilty last month in a philadelphia court to recruiting islamist militants and women like ramirez with passports. prosecutors say she is the one who urged ramirez to join her and others in europe in a location she described as, quote, like a training camp as well as a home. the indictment also quotes that revealing online exchange between these two american women, which la rose writes, quote: when our brothers detefned our faith, they are terrorists, fine. then i'm a terrorist. ramedz responds online, quote, i am what i am. last month authorities in ireland detained ramirez and six others linked to la rose in a plot to kill a swedish cartoonist. asked to bring her son to the jihadist camp and she married a man she met online the very day she arrived in europe. ramirez is scheduled to appear in court on wednesday for detention hearing in philadelphia. she could face up to 15 years in prison if found guilty of a conspiracy charges against her. harris?
