Positive News From Iraq That You Won't Get From the Media

"Military analysts recently returned from Iraq have many positive things to say about not only our own brave Patriots in uniform, but also Iraqi forces and elections. Major General Don Shepperd said of Iraqi security forces,

"These guys are good. They're coming up to speed very, very quickly." He added that 20 percent of Baghdad is now under their watch. Major General Robert Scales praised the Iraqis as "in many ways...better than we are... I mean, they can spot insurgents by their body language and by how they act and the language they use. They can spot foreigners far better than our soldiers can... [B]eing part of the culture really means a lot when you're fighting an insurgency."

Apparently, it's not all destruction and incompetence in Iraq after all..."
