Once, just ONCE, I would like to see a high-profile well-produced media piece or two showing the American public what has been accomplished over there. Throughout this conflict I've had to go to millitary sites to see photos of the schools going up, local Iraqi people interacting happily with our soldiers, people voting. Some solid success numbers wouldn't hurt, either. My heart aches when I think of how little public support our millitary has received, how little gratitude. While I feel it would be a mistake to immediately pull completely out of there before the Iraqi defense is stronger, I definitely think some high-profile high-fiving is in order. Wouldn't that be refreshing? Thank you, armed forces, for keeping us safe and helping secure freedom abroad. Thank you for posting this.
