Thanks for ping. Yea. That area was a hornets nest for a long time. Mostly the Saddamist where running the show. It is up to the people to point fingers. Which has been happening in all provinces on a more frequent basis. December 15¹⁵ is rolling around soon. Iraqi's have to make the choice. Either support a new government and move toward freedom for all, and a eventual quenching of the insurgency, or decide to let the horrors continue. It really is up to them.
