Iraq - Progress

Winds of Change reports on the steady progress being made in Iraq.

Read the whole thing including the links but here is a snippet:

Operation Thunder has temporarily put a dent in the car bombings in Baghdad. Mohammed from Iraq the Model provides a situation report based on the local Iraqi media, and states "The last 24 hours or so resulted in arresting some 300 terrorists and suspects in addition to confiscating amounts of weapons." The number of arrests stemming from Thunder is well over a thousand. The insurgency appears to have pulled up shop and moved north, executing a series of four attacks directed at Iraqi security forces. The Coalition is conducting an offensive in Tal Afar, and as mentioned last weekend, an additional 4,000 US troops have deployed to the Mosul – Tal Afar region. This is twice the amount of men used in Matador and New Market combined.
