Apparently there is not only an Anbar Awakening among Sunni Iraqis who cooperating with the US Military to route out foreign insurgents (such as al Qaeda Iraq – AQI) but Shi’ites are becoming fed up with the thuggery of the Mahdi Army.
Evidently Muqtada al-Sadr’s Mahdi Army is not enforcing a rule of law among Shi’ites to make them feel safe. It is bad news for the Shi’ites but it is good news for the US Military. Why, you might ask? Because al-Sadr is tied to the psycho Ayatollahs of Iran and it is a good thing to drive a wedge between Twelver Shi’ites of Iran and Iraqi Shi’ites.
Anyway, go check it out at Small Wars Journal. It means we are winning in Iraq not losing as the Dems would have Americans believe.
