We don't know the terms of the curfew. Iraq like most industrial nations has people working shifts. I doubt that any total curfew could be implemented where no one can be on the streets after a specific hour.

Nonsens. a curfew is a curfew, controled and enforced by military or paramilitary or police means. In Fallujah, there was fighting-a-battle taking place, and hardly people thought about getting to factory shifts in time - there were no factories working, or stores opened, etc. Violate the curfew in a combatzone, and bear the consequences. That simple. It is not a basic-democratic decision by a qualified majority - it is an order and command by a superior faction strong enough to enforce to obey the command - period.
What part exactly is it that people do not understand?
