Progress In Iraq
Even the Sunnis are now starting to blame Al-Zarquawi and Al Qaeda for the bombings, in the latest attempt to create a "Tet" offensive:
"Neither the Americans nor the Shiites have any benefit in doing this. It is Zarqawi," said Khalid Saadi, 42, who came to the hospital looking for his brother, Muhammed. Saadi said he hoped that sympathies in the city, considered a hotbed of support for the Sunni Arab insurgency, would turn against al-Zarqawi's faction.
The question I have is, is this really news, or is it just the first time that AP has found it worth reporting?

It's probably news in the Blue States.

It is news that so many the people in Ramadi are turning against Zarqawi. When my son was stationed there a year ago most of the people seemed to think Zarqawi was some kind of hero and that the Americans were to blame for all their troubles.
