First,

There is NO surge.

The percentage of troops added to the total amoung already there, is not a "surge."

The term surge is a political-media buzzword.


Second,

The troop number being added are too low to have any effect long term, Boon Me.

Baghdad will likely be quiet for the next 2 or three months. The insurgents and militias members have faded away, and they will be adapting to the new tactics by the U.S.

Expect more violence to being in about May.
