A frontpage NYT piece today says the U.S. and Iraqi allies are "quickly
losing control" of the provincial capitol Ramadi, which the Times
says is larger and "strategically more important" than its sister
city: Fallujah. (Really?) "The city is chaotic," said one sheik.
"There's no presence of the Allawi government." Allies of the
U.S. are regularly murdered, Iraqi security forces are suspected
of collaborating with guerrillas, and there's little
reconstruction since no contractors are willing to work with the
U.S. At one point, Marines walked towards some Iraqi national
guardsmen, who muttered, "Here come the sons of dogs."
