Thank You, Britain
Sure is nice to see that we still have at least some friends overseas

And somewhat along the same lines, here's an interesting little article from TownHall.com entitled "Shhhh... The Surge Is Working". Here's a wee bit;

This turnaround in Baghdad is confirmed at home by the media's near-deafening silence. If it seems like you've heard less about how Iraq is spiraling into civil war in the weeks since the surge was announced, this is why. Even some discordant voices in the media are starting to wonder what's happening. Time magazine worries that it's "Quiet in Baghdad. Too quiet.". That's right -- a dramatic reduction in violence is actually bad news.

It's too early to claim victory just yet; the operation is just two weeks old. But U.S. troops have been able to accomplish all of this with just one more brigade in-country, with four more on the way by May.

Hey Britain... any chance we can swap the Time magazine fifth columnists for the 18 Doughty Street crew?

Please?
