Well, I admit, I am very disappointed in the Iraqi's and their ability to form a stable, UNITED government. When one thinks of the TREMENDOUS opportunities that a stable nation would mean to the CITIZENS one has to wonder what they heck they drink over there. Heck, there is no reason for corruption, they can all be rich if they just develop their country to its potential. However, IMHO either the terrorists (whomever they may be) are holding back for some reason or maybe, just maybe the Iraqi's are coming to their senses and realizing what a tremendous opportunity awaits them. Hope its the latter. Somethings going on for it to have calmed down so much, I dont see how just 30k more troops made all this difference. jdn
