I know the news only has the one's who have problems with us over there and ignores the others.
USAID Fact Sheet: Rehabilitating Iraq's Basic Education System

Sorry, I tried to edit out the infuriated comment. When i saw it on paper it looked a lot stronger then I had intended. So I am not infuriated.
But I have about 10 friends who have served or are serving over there, one of whom is one of my closest friends in life, and while they are proud of the work they have been a part of, they do not relay the message to me that things are predominantly going smoothly. To the contrary they believe, and recent troop surveys back this up, that our presence there complicates our mission because of the hatred we engender among the Iraqi people. It just seemed to me that you were suggesting that, with the notable exception of Baghdad, things are pretty much going according to plan, and I dont think thats the case.  Just this week a survey of about 100 foreig n policy 
experts revealed the opinion that this thing is an unmitigated disaster. So I am still interested in hearing about who you are reading who is suggesting otherwise.
