This is long overdue. They need to root out the terrorist enablers at the top if they ever hope to limit the damage done at the bottom.

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraqi forces on Thursday detained a senior Health Ministry official accused of being a central figure in alleged corruption and the infiltration of the ministry by Shiite militiamen blamed for much of the recent sectarian violence in the capital, the U.S. military said.

A ministry spokesman said U.S. and Iraqi forces had seized deputy Health Minister Hakim al-Zamili, a supporter of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, from his first-floor office in northern Baghdad.
