#1 Don't get to big a head. It seems that they wait for someone in authority to say it's getting betterr, then do something, and the MSM says see, it's not getting better.

#2 Me and my Iraqis that I advise are part of all this and it is better...The new kids in town shoot back with vigor and then chase after you. The bad guys made the mistake of shooting at our commander and he shot back with a tank...we haven't had much trouble since...

#3 Excellent to hear, TopMac! Attitude is contagious!

Do they apply their fervor equally to both Sunni and Shia baddies?

What is the size and sect makeup of the unit you advise?

TIA!

There's nothing that can change one's outlook like getting hit by a tank round or two! :-)

But the whole things sounds a lot like whack-a-mole. Is it? There must be more to it than driving in and watching the bad guys take off to just go ply their trade somewhere else.

#6 Tank vs AK47... peace through superior firepower!

So how one calls the former targets? Misty 1, Misty 2, Misty 3...? ;-)

See the neck ties article, that surely helps too.
