Doubtful. This area has been recently cleared of AQI. I highly doubt the Shia have warehoused in al Qaeda country.

Yes, I know it's been recently cleared of AQI. My Brigade did the clearing. However, nature abhors a vacuum, and the locals over there are cracking down on AQI all by themselves. Finding such a large cache of Shi'ite weaponry in that area is an interesting development.

AQ of various branches have been tracked to Iran as a safe haven. Why is it expected that there’d be no support from Iran filtered in to AQI as well as the Shiites?

We are dealing with a culture that has an extremely flexible concept of honor and loyalty.

Thank you for a job well done and your insight. I try to follow Iraq as closely as possible and appreciate input from someone who has been a part of it.

Ahh. Well you would certainly know better than me. Sitting thousands of miles away I draw my conclusions, with no attachments at this point to boots on the ground. Although my neice’s husband will be heading over there shortly.
