Was this an excerpt? I didn't notice the part of the story apologizing for all the prior erroneous stories telling us taht a different Sadaam General would be heading the Falujah brigade. Being in the liberal media means never having to say you're sorry.

Well, to be fair, it appeared that for a while a former Saddam guy would be heading the brigade, until he was replaced. I still haven't figured out what happened to him.

The media had that story right, the former Republican Guard general was going to be appointed -- but then the Shiites and Kurds started objecting and the marines switched horses to Latif. See Link

I think the deal was real, but was called off because the guy they wanted decided he couldn't do what the US wanted him to do.
