Please see #202. Plenty of proof that the Iraqi military was in control of these places at the time we moved it, just do FR searches of the archives using Mosul and Kirkuk for search words. Go back to April 2003. (But don't ask us to do your grunt work.)

Good grief. Can you read? Mosul and Kirkuk, as everyone knows, were along the line of control between Baghdad and the Kurds. You presented proof of fighting along that line - not any proof of Iraqi troops within the Kurdish controlled territory. None.

If you want to believe that Baghdad had political or military control over the area where the Ansar enclave existed, fine. I don't care if you have a strong desire to believe something that is completely untrue. But don't run around pretending to present proof of it by posting crap that doesn't even come close to saying that.
