It’s been a long time since I’ve seen any fighting. I can’t remember my last shootout: it’s been months. The nightmare is ending. Al Qaeda is being crushed. The Sunni tribes are awakening all across Iraq and foreswearing violence for negotiation. Many of the Shia are ready to stop the fighting that undermines their ability to forge and manage a new government.

Not yet. Did you notice Yon said he hasn't seen any fighting in months?

My statues are falling
Like feathers of snow
Their voices are calling
In a whispering world
Waiting for the morning glow

Heaven is calling
From a rainy shore
Counting wounded lights falling
Into their dreams
Still searching for an open door

In morning dew
A glorious scene came through
Like war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

Pure moments of thought
In the meaning of love
This war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

An arrow of freedom
Is piercing my heart
Breaking chains of emotion
Give a moment to pray
Lost innocence to find its way

Fields of sensation
A cry in the dark
Hope is on the horizon
With a reason to stay
And living for a brand new day

In morning dew
A glorious scene came through
Like war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

Pure moments of thought
In the meaning of love
This war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

Salaam Allah alad donia alal'insaan
Ah, ah o ah
Mata nahia behob ou aman
Salaam Allah, Salaam Allah
Salaam Allah alad donia alal'insaan

In morning dew
A glorious scene came through
Like war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

Pure moments of thought

-the missing Christian families are well loved. I hope they go home soon.

I just love the pics of Muslims and American soldiers attending mass.

Neither have any of us in central Baghdad. It's amazing.

NO fighting in MONTHS? Never heard THAT back here in America.

One thing I did hear through the grapevine was that a local boy,who is in Iraq as a doctor,said there has been a sharp drop in wounded and injured coming in to his field hospital.

My whole extended family has been praying like crazy that this war would end successfully with Iraq free and pacified. My niece's husband just deployed in September, and so the war has an even more intense interest. He is complaining that he can't find any action. We are just thankful.
