Dempsey said that battles between the insurgents and U.S. forces have been decisive and swift.

 “When confronted, our attackers have been defeated....When we have encountered fights, they have been rapid, violent and very successful on our part.”

Task Force 1st Armored Division Soldiers are battle hardened, know their communities and have relationships with local leaders and residents, Abizaid said.

There are about 25,000 Soldiers from the 1st Armored Division being joined in and around Baghdad by about 15,000 arriving 1st Cavalry Division troops, a total of 40,000 American troops are now in the Iraqi capital. Roughly 11,000 more than before the troop rotation began in January

“I feel it is a small group of people, anti-democratic in their outlook, that are trying to stop the forward movement of the Iraqi people,” Abizaid said.

Yes, sir, and the coalition will beat those foreign enemies of freedom, while we bury the domestic ones in November's landslide.

Yes, John Fallujah Kerry, that means you.
