The security situation in southeastern Iraq "is now relatively stable" and improving daily along with economic conditions...

Maj. Gen. Graham Lamb told reporters that British and other coalition troops in southeastern Iraq have successfully worked with Iraqis to provide security, repair power plants, restore water and sewage services, repair schools and roads, and circumvent oil-smuggling operations..

"I've wandered around the markets and watched the quality and the quantity of the produce increase month by month."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Merry Christmas to our awesome British ~ and other Coalition ~ allies, NON-UN-ilateral, ping!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you want on or off my Pro-Coalition ping list, please Freepmail me. Warning: it is a high volume ping list on good days. (Most days are good days).
