Fallujah, some 50 km west of Baghdad, has been relatively calm since more than a year and a half ago after Sunni tribes and anti-U.S. insurgent groups turn up against al-Qaida in Iraq network, cooperating with the U.S. troops and Iraqi security forces.
Rifts emerged between predominantly Sunni insurgent groups and the al-Qaida network after the latter adopted a hardline and exercised indiscriminate killings against both Shiite and Sunni Muslims.
