Pittard confirmed that 100 members of an Iraqi battalion had refused to redeploy to Baghdad. The soldiers were part of the 2nd Battalion, 4th Brigade, 10th Iraqi Army Division, in Maysan in the south.

Is this the Shiite-Sunni division we keep hearing about, or is it more a regional thing? Or both. Later in the article, it said they felt they were needed in Maysan, but I don't know that they can make that decision. Maybe the problem is they need to think of Iraq as a whole, and not some local area. And they're learning from the best - our courageous military and coalition forces.
