Again, you are incorrect, Kenneth...

Here is the closing paragraph from your article:

There will be more tough times, frustration and disappointment along the way. It is likely that insurgent attacks will escalate as Iraq's elections approach. Iraq's security forces are, however, developing steadily and they are in the fight. Momentum has gathered in recent months. With strong Iraqi leaders out front and with continued coalition -- and now NATO -- support, this trend will continue. It will not be easy, but few worthwhile things are.

Evidently he had reason to feel optimistic. Change is inevitable on a battlefield. The only things that remain certain are death, taxes and the timeline of history will move on.
