Perhaps there is some good news coming out of Iraq. As others have correctly said, the Iraq situation will not get better until the Iraqi people take responsibility for their own security. Outside forces, including the US, cannot force anything on anyone for very long so it is up to the Iraqi people to stand up to those who would kill and maim innocents to further their religious aims.
But while signs that the Iraqi people in Fallujah appear ready to take responsibility for their situation, we have not seen concrete action to backup their brave words. History has taught us that freedom is not free. It has to be paid for with the blood of brave Iraqi men and women. We hope such people will come forward and act. Soon.
Day 2, and still no reply from O'Reilly - Aloha!
