More Good News From Iraq

Just some good news from Iraq to go along with the unbalanced stories found in the daily MSM. War is ugly and people die. We killed seven kids in a strike that took out terrorists. Had we known that the kids were there we would have let the terrorists live in order to avoid injuring children. This is what makes us very different from the enemy. They are happy to kill their children in the name of Allah and we go out of our way to avoid involving innocent people. On with the good news:

On the issue of children, US and Iraqi forces came upon orphans who had been tied to beds for a long time and were starving. These kids had flies in their mouths, noses and ears and the flies were eating the open wounds on the kids. The Americans and Iraqis rescued these kids and gave them the care they needed. They will probably make a good recovery.

CBS News (can you believe it)

The final group of troops who are part of the surge arrived in Iraq and commanders have been taking advantage of those numbers to root out terrorists (the news calls them insurgents).

WBAL (from the AP)

A bunch of Iranian weapons were intercepted on their way to Taliban (OK technically, this one deals mostly with Afghanistan).

Fox News

Just a couple of items to balance out the news.
