From Bill Roggio’s “The Long War Journal”:

Camp Striker, Baghdad Province: Nine months after the announcement of the Baghdad Security Plan and the subsequent “surge” of US forces, the battle for Baghdad remains engaged. With the effort to secure Baghdad from al Qaeda in Iraq and the Mahdi Army alike, the southwestern security district of Doura has proven difficult to tame. The soldiers of the 3rd Squadron, 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment are currently engaged in a heated battle against al Qaeda in Iraq in a corner of Doura.

    Good read. Great article. Let’s get the Neighbohood Watch committee up and running. This is the beginning of a good thing for the Iraqis. Hell, send in the Sunnis from Al-Anbar. All these people need is a leader with some balls and they’ll be as strong as the Sheiks in Al-Anbar are.
    Gotta kill some more irhabis to make it happen. I got no problem with that. The only good irhabi is a dead irhabi.

    I’m glad to see those guys looking more and more like soldiers rather than the poor second cousin. That will help with the locals.
