Is this story more good news from Iraq?

I do not think you are unwelcomed on this or any other thread.
I dont see you being moderated or cut off, yes it is a free and open board. And it seems you have been respected since your entrance. Much of what you say in your latest post, I agree with. And Im not saying we should bury our heads in the sand and only see the good. I dont need to repost what I thought about the thread title, actually it was a question, is this story more good news from Iraq. I thought it was, and I love reading av8torntn's posts on the subject, as he has been there.

US military deaths in Iraq lowest in 14 months

US commanders say the strategy is starting to work and that levels of violence are dropping, allowing for a possible drawdown of the 160,000 or so troops now deployed.

"The surge unquestionably is what has been the catalyst that has created the opportunity to have more forces operating in more places at the same time and to deny Al-Qaeda and the extremists safe-haven and to take away sanctuaries."

Thanks to all for their service!

Just saw a poll one in five democrats hope we lose the war in Iraq.
How dare we call them unpatriotic.

Maybe this will have a good effect in the future.
