We seem to have some really good news.

"Acting on a tip-off, soldiers descended on a building in the city of Rawah, 275 kilometers (175 miles) northwest of Baghdad, where they arrested local Al Qaeda commander Abu Muhayyam al-Masri, whose name is a pseudonym meaning, "the Egyptian," a Defense Ministry official said.

"Aides Abu Issam al-Libi, or "the Libyan," and Abu Zaid al-Suri, "the Syrian," were also arrested among nine other members of the cell, said the official, who asked that his name not be used because he was not authorized to speak to the media."

The "good news" have been covered-up by the MSM for 2+ years now, all in preparation for the Democrats rising. They wanted a 1 term President Bush and when they didn't get that they targeted the congress in the guise of "America" wanted a split party government but they only managed to pull it off by offering up a bunch of Blue Dog Democrats. Watch how fast the MSM starts reporting the positives from Iraq giving the Democrats all the credit for "forcing" change and getting rid of Rummy. If this story was a story a week ago the headlines would have been,"2 Soldiers, 1 Marine Killed in Iraq, Violence Surges" but now it's "Iraqi Forces Arrest Al Qaeda Leader; Violence Claims 3 U.S. Personnel". The tone is starting to change already from the MSM because they got what they wanted, a change in Congress.
