The Awakening willing to fight al Qaeda in Afghanistan ping.

The last couple of sheikhs who did that were assassinated so the value of this is huge.

Not so sure this is a sound idea. Perhaps they would be better serving by integrating more closely with the Iraqi military and police forces and soundly securing larger areas of border crossing between Iraq and it's seven neighbors. Let the US and NATO take care of al Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan.
The Iraqi Sunni have no military equipment and expertise to go in and take out Bin Laden forces. It is not practical. What is the US supposed to do. Train them to fight like our Marines then set a battalion or so of them loose. Don't make any sense to me. There are plenty of Afghans now on our side fighting al Qaeda and the Taliban. Why throw another element into the battle that is ill trained in the type of warfare required to take out large numbers of enemy in remote often mountainous regions.
