| The awakening movement may have existed before the surge, but the commitment to the us mission still may have been linked to the surge. the anbar police force was instituted in april of 2007. the surge was announced in janurary of that year. i think than anticipation of the new strategy did have an important effect on the iraqi people, but i could be wrong. i dont agree with the premise of the war itself so theres isnt really a need to convince me one way or the other. ok who else likes the smiths? > Here's a good video to watch > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8s_NpaQGC8 > > > > Im not sure that the awakening councils were really active > > before the surge.
