    I just read the first story in the "Iraqi civilians" section.

    What a great story. Of course you won't hear or read about a story like that in the regular media.

    I got choked up when I read the line about Lt. Col. Raheem
    wanting to tell every Iraqi about his love for America.

    It's too bad that we can't see anything but the "big picture".

    I always am in awe of the stories I have heard about people looking for American soldiers who stopped to assist them years, even decades ago.

    Years from now I expect to see some young Iraqi adult tell a story about how soldiers came to their school, passed out backpacks, and changed their life...

    Thank you for posting the link.

    Thank you for reminding me to be thankful.

    Thank you for serving our country.

    Thank you for the link!

    Few people know that there is "good news" coming out of Iraq because of the good ole media.

    I'm going to forward this link to everyone I know . . . this news needs to reach more people.

    Last week, a local talk show host had two gentlemen from Iraq on his program. One had been in the US for 3 weeks, the other 4 weeks.
    Both spoke so highly of the American soldiers, and how they have freed Iraq. By their estimation 90% of the Iraqi people were thankfully and grateful to America for their freedom. They stated that they have been shocked by the media here and the negative outlook they have on the war in Iraq. They said that while there are some bad areas, like Falleju (Sp?) they majority of Iraqis better off then it has been...they go to work, go to school...things they have never been able to do before.

    It was a refreshing opinion to hear.
