Good grief. I am about fed up as anything today. I am tired of the mainstream Media(Yes Fox that means even you) and their lack of coverage of the great things happening. I hate to say but even the Conservative Blogsphere doesnt cover this like it used too. Can't we talk about the pressing issues of the day and still cover the brave Americans and Iraqis and the compelling story that is unfolding there. What a great story. What a great picture of what we are fighting for and why its important.

Thank you bnelson44 for taking time the time to post this you have made my day. If it wasn't for post like yours and Milblogs, I would have not clue of whats going on.

Great article, and an excellent tribute for Armed Forces Day for the Mayor of Tel Afar to thank our military and recognize their contribution to freedom.

"Are you truly my friends?" he asked through a translator. "Yes. I walk a happier man because you are my friends. You are the world to me. I smell the sweet perfume that emanates from your flower of your strength, honor and greatness in every corner of Tal Afar. The nightmares of terror fled when the lion of your bravery entered our city."

This means a lot to the troops, I am sure.

these are the kinds of stories the white house should be promoting - to counter the MSM coverage of iraq.
