"Dispatch from Iraq: A tiny bit of comfort"
Here.
There's at least one example of Iraqi gratitude. For every family in Iraq who suffered a loss from the current conflict, at the end of which there is a real hope for freedom, there are about thirty families who suffered losses under Saddam, at the end of which there was only more dictatorship and hundreds of thousands of graves.
Too many people forget this. Over and over again. Or suppress it.
