Haditha

I am watching the film 'Battle for Haditha', which deals with an incident from 2005. Iraqis were provided by al Qaeda fighters with the material for making bombs. And they were paid by them. Not that they had any love for the foreigners: "those f***ing  al Qaeda idiots have just murdered the English teacher." As more recent comment has indicated, joining the "awakening councils" (and being paid by the Americans) is now "the best show in town", for the Sunnis.
