The title reads like a Friday night high school footbal game headline, but, in reality represents a serious situation in Iraq right now, as coalition forces work to improve conditions in Baghdad, as well as to battle insurgents in adjacent Anbar Province... a continuing challenge.
I receive emails from some on the ground who tell me things are much different (not as bad) as what's being reported in the mainstream media, but all agree that the challenges are great.
Meanwhile, back home in Washington DC, politicians take many positions, positive and negative, on the entire situation regarding the war on terrorists, with seemingly impossible divides to cross in order to reach consensus and unity.
I wish we could "fast-forward" and learn where this is all going.
