No More Kicking Doors Down?

I sound like a broken record! More good news for the Left to ignore. If I can find it so easily, why can't the Media? Them their poor misguided followers in the population might start to feel better about the World today.

No More Kicking Doors Down?: "The war has changed. No longer are Marines kicking in doors and battling insurgents with continuous gunfire. Instead, they are walking through the war-torn streets of Iraq, the same streets that just a few short years ago were the sights of horrendous warfare, where Marines are now continuously greeted by hoards of children, with their parents or guardians watching, smiling from a distance.

Now, with the future of their children at stake, the Iraqi people are taking their own 'stand' against al-Qaeda, giving the Marines tips on the locations of weapons, explosives caches or 'bad guys,' when they used to be scared to give such tips in fear of insurgents reprisal.

'The Iraqi people have so much fear that they won't be able to provide a good life for their children,' said Maj. Guillermo Rosales, commanding officer, Company F, 2nd Battalion, 24th Marines, Regimental Combat Team 1. 'The Marines are working with the (Iraqi Police), going out on patrols with them and the reaction from the people, seeing us work together like that, is overwhelming. They say that they feel more secure when we are in the area.'

This security felt by the people, given to them by the presence of Marines, has prompted the people to help locate enemy weapons 'hide outs' in the area and rid the area of insurgency."
