We need a decent TV station up and running there, something that the Iraqis will actually want to tune in to. It would certainly be big help in dealing with stuff like this.

Gee, I thought the US was in a Vietnam-like Quagmire now that that the sactitity of those psions of sanctimonious behavior, the UN was attacked by or with the help of the UN's own Ba'athist guards.

They should start the new rumor ..... the Marines are getting in a new shipment of ammunition using pork blood as bullet lube or as a stabilizing agent in the guncotton propellent loads on the bullet.

"In a lot of ways you can tell Iraqis are more acceptant of us is because (PSYOP) posters used to stay up an average of three days then they would get torn down," Chun said. "Now we still see posters still hanging after three weeks."

This seems like a small thing but it's actually pretty significant.

There's a reporter named Gary Marx who writes for the Chicago Tribune. Everything published under his byline is doom and gloom anti-American drivel.

This post will remind me to Google him soon and start tracking his stuff.

"Iraq could be a shining light among Islamic countries," he said.

That's what we're gambling on! It's sort of a last ditch chance, but at least GWB was brave enough to do it. The alternative is certainly not something we want to contemplate.

Good article and very encouraging, thanks for posting.

This is great stuff to read. I was rather surprised this morning when Rep. Ford (d) was on Fox & Friends. He had just come back from Iraq and he said the military was really doing a good job and you can't believe the things our media is saying because it's really all wrong!
