What this says is that, at any given time, the Iraqi's know where the insurgents are. The Iraqi's aren't helping us one damn bit.

READ the article! What it says is the SUNNI'S "weren't" helping us. The Sunni's comprise 20% or less, of the Iraqis. They are now seeing the light. It is a good thing.

My interpretation is that they were unwilling to help us until their own leader was killed. And so now this ONE
town is on board with helping us.

But everywhere else, they aren't lifting a finger.

If in this one town, they were able to identify the Zarqawi supporters / kill them within 24 hours, then they already knew who the Zarqawi supporters were and where they could be found. The townfolk just weren't telling us and were content to stand by as Zarqawi's men attempted to kill our soldiers.

I'm sure in every town, the insurgents are known and could be pointed out to our troops but most of the Iraqi's are keeping the information to themselves.

If you re-read the article, you'll know that I am correct.
