BAGHDAD (Reuters) - "When U.S. and Iraqi forces step up an offensive against militants in Baghdad, 4,000 Kurdish soldiers will be there on the frontlines, taking part in their first major operation under Iraq's new army."

Doesn't seem like the brightest idea for mid- to long-term peace and stability. Importing Chechnians to "pacify" Moscow would make as much sense.
