Stories from Anbar

Three rare news stories about Anbar province.

Al Jazeera has a piece on the growing "hot" battle between the secular ex-Baathists and the Islamic/Al Qaeda groups.

The NYTimes has a story about a Sunni training camp whose soldiers are now trying to fight "stand up" battles with US forces. (Probably the same resurgent ex-Baathists, although I would question the wisdom of taking the US head on.)

Last, a CSM piece on the 300 dispirited Marines left in Fallujah before a handover.
