Iraq Update: Fallujah Brigade Disbanded

NPR's Alex Chadwick talks with Alissa Rubin, Los Angeles Times co-bureau chief in Baghdad, about the disbanding of the Fallujah Brigade, an Iraqi-led security force in charge of keeping order in the city at the heart of the "Sunni Triangle" and a focal point of renewed battles between U.S.-led forces and insurgent militias.
