When Did This Happen

al Qaeda operating in Iraq? AP printed this story? Absolutely amazing.

Although al-Qaida is a Sunni organization opposed to the Shiite Muslim-dominated government, its ruthlessness and reliance on foreign fighters have alienated many Sunnis in Iraq.

The U.S. military congratulated Amariyah residents for standing up to al-Qaida.

"The events of the past two days are promising developments. Sunni citizens of Amariyah that have been previously terrorized by al-Qaida are now resisting and want them gone. They're tired of the intimidation that included the murder of women," Kuehl said.

Do the Democrats know? Someone get Sen Reid on the phone and tell him al Qaeda is losing in Iraq. The AP wouldn't lie, not about something like this.
