The media won't see Iraq is close to secure. To see it, to report on it, is to admit Bush and Blair were right, to admit that the Middle-East can be changed by introducing Democracy, and to admit they the media were WRONG!!

Right on the mark. Mortar attacks in the Green Zone are down to almost zero for the month, compared to almost daily attacks before the elections. Once we catch Zarqawi the foreign fighters will flee. Even if we don't catch him, his network has been decimated beyond repair.

It will be some months before the news media recognize it, and a few months more before they acknowledge it, but the war in Iraq is all but won.

Collectively, the media presstitutes are dumber than a box of rocks.

Despite the danger, Iraqi men keep applying for Police and Military jobs. That must be the main employment opportunity hirer.

What about Road maintenance, Utility mainyenance, Garbage pick-up? Are people in those jobs "targets" also?
