Progress In Iraq

Even the Sunnis are now starting to blame Al-Zarquawi and Al Qaeda for the bombings, in the latest attempt to create a “Tet” offensive:

“Neither the Americans nor the Shiites have any benefit in doing this. It is Zarqawi,” said Khalid Saadi, 42, who came to the hospital looking for his brother, Muhammed. Saadi said he hoped that sympathies in the city, considered a hotbed of support for the Sunni Arab insurgency, would turn against al-Zarqawi’s faction.

The question I have is, is this really news, or is it just the first time that AP has found it worth reporting?
