A new blog i have discovered, Boots on the Ground, has some very good insights into what is happening in Iraq. It is written by an American Infantryman stationed in Iraq. In a recent post, he talked about how frustrating it is for them to see only the negative things that are happening being reported on the news:

For so many years America has always cut and run when it's soldiers die, pathetic weak leaders we have. Despite many many resistance cells and fedayeen cells that get uncovered and arrested or killed, which we find these cells all the time, despite all the successes (you never hear about in the news) we've had in cracking down on these guys, they still manage to hit us. We can make this Iraq a great place, but it is going to take patience and time.
