HOO-AH: Are We About To Win This Damn Thing?

Hat Tip to my buddy Michael @ Michael Yon: Online Magazine

Al Qaeda is on the run

Major operations against al Qaeda have begun in northern Iraq. Al Qaeda is in serious trouble. These are not ad hoc operations, but are deliberate, systematic, well-planned and working.

I’ve been watching this unfold for months but have not reported due to sensitivity, but the real shooting has started and Maliki has announced it. There is every indication that this series of operations could be the death blow for al Qaeda in Iraq.

AQI can continue to murder people here and elsewhere for years to come, but their grip on Iraq is weakening faster than I can track. The Iraqis and Americans have seized the initiative.

Al Qaeda is on the run. Due to these operations, I anticipate an increase in US casualties, but the operations are working.

I’ll be in the middle of these operations bringing you the good, the bad and the ugly, from up close.
