There was plenty of progress to report, if the press had been interested. When the battle of Fallujah was over, the Marines set up a humanitarian relief station in an abandoned amusement park. Together with Iraqis locally hired and trained for the purpose and with an assist from the Iraqi ministry of the interior, they distributed rice, flour, medical supplies, baby formula, and other necessities to thousands of Iraqis. Thanks for pinging me to this article. It would be nice if the MSM would report the facts when it comes to the war in Iraq, but their leftist agenda gets always in the way.
