Iraqi Forces Make Arrests

Yahoo/Reuters reports that Iraqi forces have captured six supects in the recent assasination of Baghdad's provincial governor. Readers should note that the arrests resulted from a tip by neighbors to a Baghdad safehouse where the suspects were hiding. The article notes snarkily, "The capture of gunmen involved in the Jan. 4 killing of Governor Ali al-Haidri would mark a rare U.S. intelligence success against loosely knit guerrilla cells that strike almost at will and have proved difficult to penetrate." Rare US intelligence success? How about Fallujah? How about Najaf?
