Unbelievable. The BBC (News 24) have just acknowledged while reporting today's suicide bombing that the violence in Iraq is down and that the country is stabilising. Of course, they say it's all because of the Iraqi army (and it is to some extent...but let's not pretend that the Americans and, to a lesser extent, the Brits, weren't the driving force).
Incidentally, I just finished reading Michael Yon's "Moment of truth in Iraq". I recommend it to anyone seeking an honest and unbiased report on life in Iraq over the last couple of years. It strikes an excellent balance between the combat missions and diplomatic endeavours that have gone unreported for so long. Great read.
