U.S. General Says Iraq Violence at it's Lowest Point Since '04

[FVZA_Colonel]

Source: Associated Press

By PATRICK QUINN

BAGHDAD - Violence in Iraq is at its lowest levels since the first year of the American invasion, finally opening a window for reconciliation among rival sects, the second-ranking U.S. general said Sunday as Iraqi forces formally took control of security across half the country.

Lt. Gen. Ray Odierno, the man responsible for the ground campaign in Iraq, said that the first six months of 2007 were probably the most violent period since the U.S.-led invasion in 2003. The past six months, however, had seen some of the lowest levels of violence since the conflict began, Odierno said, attributing the change to an increase in both American troops and better-trained Iraqi forces.

"I feel we are back in '03 and early '04. Frankly I was here then, and the environment is about the same in terms of security in my opinion," he said. "What is different from then is that the Iraqi security forces are significantly more mature."

Violence killed at least 27 Iraqis on Sunday — 16 of them members of a U.S.-backed neighborhood patrol killed in clashes with al-Qaida in a volatile province neighboring Baghdad. Thirty-five al-Qaida fighters also died in that fighting, Iraqi officials said.

1. Have him get back to me when --

-- it hits it's lowest level since '01

[roamer65]

2. Victory won't be until all troops are home.

...so let's just declare victory and bring them home NOW.

[Rockerdem]

3. Not gonna happen now...

That window of opportunity closed earlier this year when a new Congress took the reins ... and dithered weakly on this subject. Significant troops will be in Iraq for most of your remaining lifetime.

A co-worker offered to bet me $500 that, if Sen. Clinton is elected, that more than 50,000 troops would still be in Iraq by the end of her first term. I wouldn't take the bet.

[Spinzonner]

4. Oh Goody

Let's dig up all the Iraqi's and Americans who would have been alive but for Bush's invasion and give them the good news.

[Clanfear]

5. That is great news.

I see no way anyone could look at fewer incidents of violence as nothing but great, given the situation.

[SunDrop23]

7. I agree and disagree, since...

it is being used to convince people that the "surge" is working, we are "winning the war," and as a way to give people a warm fuzzy feeling about the "war."

But yes, less violence means less human casualties (military and civilian).

[SunDrop23]

6. Self-delete

[humbled_opinion]

8. Here we go..

Wait till the spin starts.. Republicans are going to beat Democrats to death with the wrong side of history stick... More stories on the success of the surge and eventually Merikans are going to start believeing that it was all worth it ... Iraqi Freedom... and all that BS...
