As soon as Sahdr called off his Mahdi Army (so as to reserve strength; probably to prepare for the eventual American withdrawal), then the Mahdi Army was no longer part of Al Qaeda? How do we explain that contradiction with "Al Qaeda" spin? More IFs that somehow get ignored when George Jr's "Al Qaeda" spin somehow becomes fact.
It's called an insurgency - a civil war. A war created, in part, by the power vacuum created by American and made worse when American leadership violated most every basic military principle understood even 2500 years ago. "Al Qaeda in Iraq" is the myth so that we ignore how incompetent this administration has been.
