This is what I like to see. The Iraqis doing it themselves and standing up for themselves instead of the Americans.
I meant to type north of Baghdad, not north of Iraq...
Anyhow, didn’t General Petraeus just talk about how the situation in Ramadi have totally turned around as the Tribes have started to come to their senses and support the U.S. and chase Al Qaeda out of Dodge...
I think Al Qaeda started killing some of the tribal leaders, probably in order to intimidate them.
Looks like it was a bad move.
Me too. Hopefully, this will give them a lot of encouragement!
