48 Dead in Guerrilla Violence Suicide Bombing in Khalis Targets Iraqi Troops

"The NYT says that US troops keep taking the northern border town of Telafar and then losing it againt to the guerrilla movement. Telafar is largely Turkmen, and most of the Turkmen there are Shiites of some sort. But some are radical Sunnis, and foreign fighters, especially Syrians, find it easy to get to Telafar from Syria."

Well I guess we are learning important knowledge, not to long ago Iraq had an endless uncontrollable border that could not be patrolled. But I think it is becoming clear that there are specific crossing points where most of the crossings take place. I am sure that most of the old smugglers know exactly where these point are and now even we here in Miami a starting to get an Idea of where they are. I only hope that the powers that be, are also watching reading and learning.
