I have been curious about the situation in Tikrit, liberated from the Islamic State nine months ago. This morning’s NPR report is the best I’ve seen/heard on the subject. Sounds like a solid B grade to me, which under the circumstances is pretty good. And the first year isn’t over yet. Whatever grievances persist, returns and startup of construction are excellent signs. It is post-liberation conditions that will decide the eventual outcome of the fight against the Islamic State, not merely military prowess.
