Return on Success! We're kicking ass!

Iraqis have had it up to here with the U.S. Their Parliament wants to restrict American operations after a "rash" of dead civilians. Boy, these people are never satisfied.

Leaders in the Iraqi parliament said Monday that they were taking steps to examine the U.S. military presence in Iraq with an eye toward possibly restricting the force's activities, in a continuing backlash over an American raid that Iraqi officials say killed 13 civilians. Iraqi leaders have complained that the U.S. military has used too much force in responding to attacks, leading to the deaths of civilians, and that the Americans have not coordinated enough with Iraqi forces.

Meanwhile, a roadside bomb in an Indiana market-like area of Baghdad killed four people Monday and injured 12.

As things continue to go remarkably well, an additional three people were killed and 11 injured, including four policemen, by a pair of roadside bombs near a day laborer site, and another roadside bomb attack targeting an Iraqi army patrol killed one soldier and injured two others Monday afternoon.

In yet another sign violence is dropping, police found the bodies of only five men who had been shot to death on the streets of Baghdad.
We're turnin' the corner!
