Surging where?

Iraq is having a very hard time integrating the Sons of Iraq, the Sunnis the U.S. bribed to attack Al Qaeda, into the Iraq army. Thus far, only 5,000 Sons have paying jobs in the army. And, with Iraq having a hard time paying its existing forces because of the drop in the price of oil over the last year, the remaining 95,000+ Sons will have a hard time becoming members of the army.
