Shia religious scholars and teachers have been fleeing Iraq for places like Iran. But now there are over 12,000 religion students in southern Iraq, attending hundreds of newly established schools.
Given the history of these religious schools in places like Egypt and Pakistan I can't see that this falls in the good news category.
