More Bad News from the Heartland of the Sunni Insurgency
Bad for Democrats, that is:
The violent strain of anti-Americanism in Fallujah and the surrounding area has ebbed almost completely. People here know Americans are not the enemy. They know Americans protect them from murder and intimidation from the head-choppers and car bombers. They know Americans provide medical care to Iraqis hurt by insurgents and even to insurgents wounded in battle.I'd say that America is going to wake up at some point and realize that we won in Iraq, but I don't think it's going to happen. With absolutely zero coverage of Iraq on TV news, it's doubtful people know or care about the Petraeus victory. No, we'll go into fall's election with a view of Iraq based on BDS and two year old information completely unchallenged by the major media outlets.
So, bad for the Democrats? Not really. What people don't know can't hurt them--the Democrats, that is.
