We read that US and Iraqi military have embarked on a new military campaign:
"U.S. and Iraqi forces have launched a new military campaign they hope will put an end to a stubborn insurgency in restive Nineveh province, seen as a final holdout for Sunni Islamist militants, officials said on Sunday.
Brigadier General Said Ahmed Abdullah, spokesman for the northern province's military command, said local forces began searching homes and conducting widespread arrests on Friday as part of the new operation to oust al Qaeda militants." (Reuters)
We assume that Pres Obama approved this operation.
So much for giving our military a new mission in Iraq!
