File under: Iraqi Insurgency

#1 Sounds like a Michael Yon dispatch the time he described being with a American Colonel? (short term memory is the first to go) who suddenly reached over an Iraqi officer, took his gun, and put him under arrest!

I don't know about you, but with the training these Iraqis are getting, and the reports from our troops about how good they are getting, I hope they stay on our side!

Too bad, our "Congressional Leaders" can't grasped the rapid day-to-day progress that is being made.

Michael Yon has been out of Iraqi awhile and is now back.

He reports: I was the first to say Iraq was in civil war, and many readers were angry to hear me say it. Well, I'll be the first to say that I predict some sort of milestone for the war in Iraq will occur early in the next year. It's dangerous to predict like this, but something fundamental has changed in Iraq.

And I can feel that change from reading of our Milblogs...

Try hoping for something practical---like finding a million $ on a sidewalk, Sherry.
