Citizen Smash and Kathy Kinsley, at On The Third Hand, bring to our attention this Salt Lake Tribune article. It seems the citizens of Fallujah, a hotbed of Iraqi "resistence" have had enough.
A 45-year-old Fallujah resident, told a Knight Ridder reporter:
Day and night, we are afraid, and we are tired of it. I can no longer feel proud of the resistance. They have made these bombings our everyday life.
Another Fallujah resident said:
I'm against the resistance now, and I'm not afraid to say it. I can bring you a dozen friends who say the same thing. I wish the attacks would stop. It's affecting our whole stability, our whole life.
Read the whole thing.
There is more good Iraq news in this USA Today article. According to USA Today:
Attacks against coalition forces in Iraq have dropped 22% in the four weeks since Saddam Hussein's capture.[. . .]
U.S. military officers say they are optimistic they are close to breaking the resistance. "We are winning this fight," said Brig. Gen. Mark Hertling, assistant commander of the 1st Armored Division, responsible for security in most of Baghdad.
This is good!
