.....Much remains to be done......

First order of business must be the trial and execution of Saddam Huesein. The governmnet is in jeopardy while he is alive.

Much does remain to be done, but so very much has been accomplished.

Iraqis have been expressing a lot of hope and optimism lately.

Taking Rome in 1944 was an occasion for mild celebration. It was preceded by the goat rope of Anzio and the meat grinder of Cassino, which muted much triumphalist enthusiasm, and then knocked completely off the front page by the Normandy Invasion.

Having a legitimate elected government in Iraq is a victory long in coming. It doesn't win the war, but it helps.
