Iraqi insurgents "mostly eliminated"

Gen. Webster advises us that we have all but won.

"I do believe, however, that the ability of these insurgents to conduct sustained, high-intensity operations as they did last year, we've mostly eliminated that."

He said that about 1,700 suspected insurgents had been captured during Operation Lightning, including 51 foreigners.


Wow.. Those evil foreign fighters are again mentioned, and they are all of 3% of those captured. What no one ever mentions is that about 5% of those fighting for the US Armed forces are also foreign fighters.

as to the views of Gen. Webber, Iyad Allawi (past interim Iraqi PM) presents his own, his claim; this is the start of civil war.
