Hi Wing! Good report. I haven't been to Nassiriyah since 2003, but my last IA partner (Major Aziz) was from there. He would tell me that that there was a huge fight going on between JAM and Maliki's and Badr Corps (inner-Shia conflict) so I found it interesting that the bombings occurred at the same time that one extremist group was laying down arms to join the political process. Keep up the reports. We'll see what happens.
