By The Associated Press – 1 hour ago
IRAQI SUPPORT: The portion of Baghdad where Iraqi security forces are in control with minimal help from the American military has grown only slightly in recent months, to just over 8 percent.

SUSTAINABLE SECURITY: A key issue is whether the U.S.-trained Iraqi forces will be able to hold the line.
