because you were there to see it firsthand and make accurate comparisons.
I could say the same thing about WB and G-man's claims that the surge is succeeding. But it's seems an asinine point since none of us really know what the fuck is going on overthere.
You don't have to take mine or G-man's word for it.
Several highly acclaimed field reporters (including pulitzer-winning N Y Times reporter John Burns, quoted on page 1 of this topic) as well as military and government officials, as well as statistics of declining violence, as well as Iraqis feeling comfortable enough to move back into the formerly war-torn areas, as well as intercepted Al Qaida, that say they don't have what they need to fight and are leaving,
all demonstrate an improving situation in Iraq.
You could just read the articles posted that G-man, myself and others have quoted here in the topic. If you and Whomod weren't burying your heads in the sand and pretending these facts don't exist.
But, of course, you're patriotic, and not partisanly anti-American, are you?
