I could talk about Scott Peterson or Michael Jackson, but I continue to keep this a Peterson/Jackson free zone. The Iraq war still bubbles, but not as before.
I had notices how little news had been coming out of Iraq. Now The Belmont Club, always an excellent read has two posts, here and here, about the insurgency in Iraq. His conclusion, although not yet confirmed, the insurgency is dying.
Lt. Gen. John F. Sattler, head of the First Marine Expeditionary Force, said attacks have gone from 25 a day down to about 10 a day. Fewer attacks are successful and fewer cause damage or casualties.
One big change is the Iraqi military is finally starting to come up to speed.
The danger for the Democrats is, the public will eventually wake up and realize Bush was right. But the press will do all they can to completely ignore the Iraqi success – assuming it becomes that. Just witness how much news comes out of Afghanistan.
No news is good news.
