Big News
So somebody want to tell me why I'm not seein' or hearin' this EVERYWHERE????
Iraq takes control of military in ‘gigantic’ step
But of course they have to offset this great moment by letting us know that violence persists.....
Duh. It's a war. Of COURSE violence persists. But think about it. Finally - we have handed the reins back to the Iraqis. Oh - we'll be there to help, just like when your child learns to ride a bike. You stay, you guide, you pick 'em up when they need it - but THEY do it.
So I'm thrilled to hear this. It's a big step in Iraq's moving into a new life......

He left last week for another year over there.
I look at Iraq like Afghanistan. But with more free radicals.
