More progress with Iraqi troops. I think it is looking more and more like the folks who said we couldn't make good in Iraq were wrong.

Iraqi special forces backed by US troops have killed 84 insurgents in a raid on a lakeside training camp near the city of Tikrit, officials say.

A 240-strong Iraqi commando unit engaged in heavy fighting before seizing the camp, 160km (100 miles) north-west of Baghdad, on Tuesday.

Iraqi officials confirmed that at least seven Iraqi commandos died, alongside insurgents from a number of countries.
