Bad headline. It should read: Najaf sees BEST fighting since 2003
"Marines Kick the Most Ass In Najaf Since 2003"
I agree, and I would rewite this as well:
A renewed uprising among the country's majority Shiites would cause severe problems for Iraq's fledgling interim government as it tries to gain popular support and for coalition forces that are already struggling against Sunni militants.
"Routing Sadr's thugs by killing them by the carload would cause serious problems for the terrorist forces and assist the stabilization of the Iraqi regime"
