Edit - Also from that article -

" British officials claim that troops are now making steady gains in winning over the suspicious Shia population in the south. Some 300 Shia militia fought alongside US forces in an attack on Iraqi positions at ash-Shatraf, north of al-Nasiriyah, last week. This is seen as evidence that Shia fighters are losing their fear of Saddam’s regime."
