Pacification of Baghdad

Here is the latest (January 17) map of trends in ethno-sectarian violence in Baghdad, from the Multinational Force Iraq (MNF-I). The green areas are predominantly Shiite, the blue are mostly or predominantly Sunni, and the brown areas are closely mixed. The yellow-orange-red inflammation indicates “incidents where deaths occurred from any means that were clearly ethno-sectarian in motivation, to include car bombs.” The methodology for determining what constitutes ethno-sectarian violence is explained here.
This map and other charts may be found in the January 17 briefing slides of Lt. Gen. Raymond T. Odierno, and in the report by Anthony Cordesman, The Situation in Iraq: A Briefing from the Battlefield, published on February 13.
