Success begets success. And in tactical military situations success can begin an avalanche of successes. The sea change in Iraq is not only expanding and deepening, it has forced al-Qaeda to turn to simply attempting to survive. I have stated before I think the Surge is in mop-up operations and still trying to chase the […]

The good news keeps coming out of Iraq as the results of the Surge sink in. From Iraqis themselves we hear the following: I have been working in this hospital for about eight months and the security situation has definitely improved during that time. We used to receive about 10-15 injuries and five to 10 […]

Nancy Pelosi came one step closer to her nightmare fantasy of ‘reversing’ what has happened in Iraq last night with a wimpy vote on a bill with only sufficient funds for an immediate retreat: The House tonight passed a $50 billion Iraq funding bill that sets a “goal” of having all U.S. forces out of […]

Driving into NASA this morning I was listening to a local DC radio show (Grandy & Andy on 630 AM) which was quite stunning in its discussion about Iraq. Fred Grandy (Love Boat and US Congress candidate) is the shows more left leaning commentator and he was of the opinion (which I agree with) that […]

Addendum: Reader Kathie notes none of this would be happening if we had not gone into Iraq and exposed al-Qaeda’s true brutal nature. The Muslim world would still be naively singing al-Qaeda’s praises instead of distancing themselves from its atrocities if we had not taken the battle to them. A very good point Kathie! – […]

Oh my, what will the Democrats try to “reverse” now in Iraq with success being so far along we are now reducing our troop strength (cautiously so as to NOT lose all the gains we have fought and died for over the last 6 months): The first big test of security gains linked to the […]

Well, NBC is just burst the fantasies of a lot of far left liberals who keep claiming Bush lied about Iraq’s supposed weapons of mass destruction in order to start the Iraq war. It turns out it was all a massive deception on the part of Saddam Hussien (not Bush) who DELIBERATELY let America (and […]

al-Qaeda has a choice to make – quit Iraq and survive to rebuild another day or continue to massacre Muslims and become the enemy of Islam. While the liberal far left in America keeps pretending Iraq and the war on terror are not at a cross roads, the anger, hatred and vengeance that Iraqi Muslims […]

In the continuing joke of denial by the liberal left that things are turning around in Iraq we now have a new spin: it is too late for success to be recognized, even if it is happening. This comes from one of those liberals who cannot emotionally face the fact that (a) Iraq was tough […]
