Isurgents Loosing

BAGHDAD, Feb. 6 - With a hero who gave his life for the elections, a revived national anthem blaring from car stereos and a greater willingness to help police, the public mood appears to be moving more clearly against the insurgency in Iraq, political and security officials say.

In the week since national elections, police and Iraqi National Guardsmen say that they have received more tips from the public, resulting in more arrests and greater effectiveness in their efforts to weaken the violent insurgency rocking the country.

This news and the story about Iraq "Fighting Fire with Fire" render Teddy's rant for more Iraqi support useless. Not that Kennedy's rant wasn't just an idiotic attack on Bush and the US Military to begin with or to imply that the Iraqi's were not already striving or motivated to provided a greater portion of the security, simply proves their ongoing dedicated and have been; to bad Teddy missed this.

This story indicates signs of the Iraqi population as a whole being dedicated to stopping the insurgents, ending the strife, and driving for their freedom… Good signs, all in all!
