Al Qaeda gunmen holding Ramadi are under attack:
Iraqi tribesmen backed by police special forces and helicopter gunships assaulted al Qaeda-linked militants in the eastern and southern outskirts of the city of Ramadi on Sunday, police and local officials said.
They said the ground forces retook a police station in al-Hamthiya on the eastern outskirts of the city after helicopters fired missiles and machineguns at militant hideouts in the area.
As long as the al Qaeda types have conveniently massed in one spot, we should be interested in helping the Iraqis kill as many of them as possible.
It isn't too late to recover from our unforced error of leaving Iraq in 2011.
