"U.S. commanders are offering large sums to enlist, at breakneck
pace, their former enemies, handing them broad security powers in
a risky effort to tame this fractious area south of
Baghdad in Babil province and, literally, buy time for national
reconciliation."

In the very best traditions of the U.S., throw money at the problem.
Yeah, these little deals are sure to bring nascent liberty and freedom to Iraqis.
Will these purchased people be called "National Guard and security forces?"
