Did you know that the Iraqi government is now in control of four of eighteen provinces? Of course not. The media doesn’t talk about stuff like that, because it doesn’t sell copy, or create controversy.
Progress may be slow, but there is progress. That is sometimes hard to admit in the midst of Iraq’s pain and suffering, but the pain and suffering is not being promoted by the Coalition. Sometimes we lose sight of the difference between good intentions poorly executed and evil intentions well executed.
