60% of Baghdad not under control

More evidence of the "surge" at work:

BAGHDAD - Security forces in Baghdad have full control in only 40 percent of the city five months into the pacification campaign, a top American general said Saturday as U.S. troops began an offensive against two al-Qaida strongholds on the capital's southern outskirts.

That's 60% of the city that's not under control. And, somehow I have my doubts about "full control" anywhere. Even the green zone gets a mortar round now and then.
