#1 Definitely one of those worthwhile articles which will be roundly ignored by the Moonbat MSM and the Kwagmire Krowd. It's to TWS's credit that they've picked it up and given it at least some circulation. Kudos to TWS.

Yon just rocks - and his stories are among the few believable accounts of what is actually going on in Iraq. From him, I gain credible confidence as well as factual knowledge. Thx, Michael.

#2 Yeah, I read the whole thing, but it is sooooo long! How can one expect the journalists to focus for such a long time? And the typical readers have such short --whatever

#3 There was some confusion on the number of attacks. The DefendAmerica article (Armed Forces Press) said - "there were 299 attacks across Iraq on Jan. 30, while there were 89 on Oct. 15. And, he added, there were 88 insurgent attacks on polling sites during the Jan. 30 election, compared to just 19 on those sites on the day of voting for the constitutional referendum."

So both numbers Mr. Yon heard were correct!
