Potentially very significant development, this...

One the surface this seems like good news. Im not sure how I feel about introducing another highly trained force with guns into the situation. Sometimes the 'army' likes to join the revolt, and when that happens, youre totally fucked.

'Falluja Protection Army'
Col Byrne told reporters that the new Iraqi force would be set up under an agreement reached with local leaders.
He said it would be known as the Falluja Protection Army (FPA), and would be made up of about 1,100 Iraqi soldiers led by a former general from the Saddam Hussein era.
"The plan is that the whole of Falluja will be under the control of the FPA," said Col Byrne.

However, he said the force would ultimately be subordinate to the marines, who would remain in the area, but outside the city itself.

Smells like bullshit to me.
