The surge has not worked until a day goes by when there is NO killing in Iraq. And when they have established a democratic government where every man, WOMAN, and child is equal, and safe in their homes and on the streets.

And since this is NEVER going to happen because these people want a sectarian government, it makes this cause DOA!

FOOLS!

[Looks like things are finally on the upswing for Iraq and her people...which in turn, is good news for America and the President...and bad news for Bush haters, who aren''''t getting the violence they thrive off of.]

I love how the surge''''s resounding success has barely been covered by the media. Liberal media? Na, could''t be.

I love how they forget the reason for the surge in the first place. How many of those goals have been completed ? Was it 5 out of 18 ?

Brave volunteers who fought and died so that we may live in peace and freedom. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Good job U.S. military. Continued success in Iraq will bring the political parties to reconciliation. Hey LIBS, hurry up and surrender, victory is in sight!

Meanwhile, I keep my fingers crossed and hope that all the embedded Shia keep their feet firmly on the path of "democracy"...

"The officer said eight militia members were killed; the U.S. military said in an e-mail to The Associated Press that it killed an "estimated" 11 fighters. The reason for the discrepancy was not immediately clear.

In a later statement, the U.S. military said the operation was targeting a suspect who was "reportedly responsible for attacks against Coalition forces.""

The reason for the regular discrepencies and vague assertions in US military reports is because the US military consistently crafts its reports to deceive the US public and it is harder to lie consistently than it is to tell the truth.

There is good reason to believe that Mahdi groups are targeted in part because Sadr''s group is a competitor with US favored elements for influence in Iraq.

Sadr actually seems more moderate and constructive than our leadership - which is not saying much. He is nationalistic too. I guess those things make him a prime target.
