Of course that's all they talk about. And they are still finding bodies and there is still violence in Baghdad. However, the security situation has much improved there just in the last couple of weeks and will continue doing so.

The media doesn't like to talk about things like that. I know the CNN, et al scumbags in the Palestine Hotel know about the successes in Operation Together Forward. They just refuse to pass that particular part on.
