Hundreds of Iraqi Christians rallied in northern Iraq on Sunday to protest a new provincial elections law they say denies them their rights because it fails to give them a guaranteed number of seats on provincial councils. Amid growing criticism over the issue, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki appealed to parliament and the electoral commission to restore the quota guaranteed in the old election law. (AP)
