After a few months I wonder how many al Qaeda will still be in Iraq. The death toll for them will obvioulsy continue to rise most likely. They have no place to run to for the most part.

Now that their old friends in the 1920 Brigades have turned on them, they’re in real trouble. The wrath of the 1920 Brigades may have as much significance as the Sunni tribes have had in al Anbar because they know where these guys hide, where they hide their caches, and where they make their VBIEDs, where their financiers are, and probably many other key pieces of intel.

Al Qaeda’s infrastructure and apparatus is being destroyed.
