Violence Does Not Mean Failure



From Amy Proctor - Bottom Line Up Front

70% of Baghdad is secure
Reconstructing is flourishing, including schools, hospitals, neighborhood facilities (take your pick), courthouses and telecommunication centers.
77% of Iraqis feel safe in their neighborhoods
77% of Iraqis feel safe in their neighborhoods.
Almost 60% of Iraqis have confidence in the Iraqi Government to improve the situation.
50% of Iraqis feel confident that the Iraqi government can protect their families.
Economic Indicators show that for 2007 the economy will grow by over 10% and that the non-oil sectors will grow by approximately 7%.
Unemployment is only at 17.6% in Iraq, a WAR ZONE.
Over 3.7 million Iraqis receive meals and assistance.
“The people of Iraq are beginning to reject al Qaeda and other extremists that continue to foment this violence They are reaching out to coalition forces, but more importantly, they are beginning to reach out to the government of Iraq.” - LT GEN Odierno
The Iraqi Army is taking the lead in Iraq.

Of course the talking points and instinctive denials from the left will try to combat this. Every week-kneed liberal from Harry Reid ("the war is lost") to Chris "I'm tired of guys who own f****n' ranches running th country" Matthews to that "monkey posing as a journalist" Keith Olberloon. Did you know any of this? Any mainstream coverage? Keep looking and good luck with that.
