>> INDC: When did things go bad for al Qaeda?

Leo: I think it was maybe … 10 months ago? Ten months, one year, that’s it. And everything began in Ar Ramadi, the Awakening of the al Anbar tribes. And when we see it’s working, Fallujans talked about the same actions and tried to save the people and save Fallujah from al Qaeda.

INDC: And what did al Qaeda do that was so bad, specifically?

Leo: Specifically, they targeted our mosques, our imams.



In other words, the "success" in Anbar had nothing to do with the "surge" or whatever else Bush has done there!!
