Which begs the question as to where these troops will come from? Elsewhere in Iraq? Probably. But can they be spared elsewhere in Iraq? No. It's not like the rest of Iraq suddenly got better and we have US troops to spare. So now we're going to make the rest of Iraq less safe, and our troops in those regions less safe, to deal with the worsening situation in Baghdad.
Big mess all round.
