Baghdad.Australian Defense Minister Brendan Nelson arrived in Baghdad Saturday on an unannounced visit to Iraq and met with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to discuss the coalition's efforts to improve security in cities such as Baghdad, the government said. Australia, a staunch supporter of the U.S.-led Iraq war, has about 1,400 troops in and around the country. Al-Maliki and Nelson met at the prime minister's office in the capital's heavily fortified Green Zone, and al-Maliki "underlined that Iraqi forces are unified in battling terrorists and outlaws, and are now fighting shoulder to shoulder throughout Iraq" Source: AP

The press needs to put this kind of news on the front page. They put plenty of bad news on the front pages. Could they put some good on it too?

Americans should take cheer that our military is helping the valiant forces of Iraq fight for freedom and security in their nation. Because, before this is over, the Iraqis themselves are going to show the entire world how to dispose of terrorism.
