OK, the invasion took only a few days. Do you think the occupation is "working",

The occupation is also over. It ended when we turned over power to the Iraqi government, and our role changed from being the occupying power, to being a supporter of the government against an insurgency.

Anticipating the obvious question, do I think the the attempt to quell or at least contain the insurgency is working?

Well its working in terms of having a positive effect, in terms of things being better then they would be without the effort. Its not working if you define that as "just about to completely succeed".
