Misreporting Iraq

Confederate Yankee Bob Owens has a couple great posts, here and here, that completely obliterate a couple stories that the MSM and moonbat lefty blogs are pounding as proof all is failed in Iraq so we should retreat in defeat. One was that some of the Sunni Sons of Iraq were threatening to go on strike because they weren't being paid but that was resolved a couple weeks before the British press ran the story. The other was the slight uptick in violence by the Iranian backed Mahdi militias in the south, well Maliki gave them 72 hours to disarm and go home or get crushed and he has the forces in place to do just that.
Meanwhile a new friend of the Barnyard, Eric at the Tygrrrr Express has an excellent post about a soldier that served two combat tours in Iraq only to begunned down in Chicago outside a Cubs game. The upside is that great heart still beats as a transplant saving a life even as his was lost.
