An agreement has been reached....

[gbarton13]

It appears both sides agreed to an agreement for the new Iraqi Government. This is definately good news. Read more about it here...http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/meast/03/15/iraq.main/index.html

I just noticed something on the article's page on CNN. I am amazed how optimistic CNN is about Iraq. They announce an extremely positive news story of the Kurds and the United Iraqi Alliance reaching an agreement and for a picture in the article, they have a burning car...Gotta love the optimisum!! :happy64:

Very good reading.

Interesting about the state of emergency extension by Allawi.

Could this be an aggressive stance towards insurgents?

I thought the same thing! TOO funny.

Good Find! It's great to hear there is progress happening in Iraq! This year seems promising for more progress and hopefully the dinar will benifit well from it.

Im really having a hard time with how they are explaining (or lack of explainaton) of the insurgency and why they are having so much trouble with it. And why the heck with 140,000 American miltary men why can they find one guy. Sure, seems like they have no clue on how to stop it.

Just my opinion, but I think that this statement is grossly unfair to our troops. We have 140,000 men there on the ground, and you want to blame them because so far they haven't found 1 guy on the run in a country of 25 million? Do you realize that a fugitive like Eric Rudolph was on the run for 5 years right here in the U.S. before we finally caught up with him? It's not like the entire 140,000 are all hunting for Zarqawi without doing anything else. The entire country is being secured by our brave soldiers. Give our guys a break. They are doing a great job over there in difficult circumstances.

Agreed! Very unfair opinion.

And, didn't it take a little while before Saddam was apprehended?

well it won't come up, go to drudgereport.com look on second page of pictures when look at stuff from Iraq.

Agreed Dinaress. This kind of thinking leads to inane sentences like "we can put a man on the moon but can't ..." There is being a backseat general, then there is being a general. Trust me, the syncronicity, talent and planning in that operation is phenominal. Reno took more days to burn down and kill all Branch Davidians including children than it took us to get to Baghdad.

Do you really honestly... HONESTLY... think this guy is our first priority? Not even close. Neither was getting Saddam. It fell into the category of "would be nice" and I'm sure that is way toward the bottom of the list. There is always an FBI most wanted in this country, so guess what? Everywhere else in the world there are also number one criminals.

We're focusing on the more than 20 million others that need power, supplies, and training up their army as well. It is more important to us that they know the joy a better lifestyle, better security, and even of shampooing with Pert than getting a high-profile criminal, because there are degrees... 20 million to 1.

Or shal I point out that with this kind of negative attitude about the situation in Iraq you have still invested in it? It seems either hypocritical or inconsistent.

This concludes this Pert advertisement.
