Geode00, this an amazing but interesting statement by the Kurdish lawmaker Othman.

>>" He also said it was a bad idea to send Kurdish troops to fight Shiite militia members in Baghdad "because they don't know the area and they don't know the people. There will also be new Arab-Kurdish sensitivities."... "<<

But somehow Bush, the Neocons et al, believe a bunch of heavily armed, and probably just a little scared Americans who generally have less than fluency with the language and culture, to say it mildly, going into Baghdad is a good idea.
But no problem...they are led by a PhD General who wrote a book on counterinsurgency.
