What haven't you heard about the following good news that has taken place in Iraq? Because the MSM (mainstream media) doesn't, or won't, report it.
Tragically,
the lack of reporting the positive things that are
happening serves two purposes: #1 to undermine the
world's perception of the United States, thus
minimizing support, and #2 to discourage American
citizens.
There's so much progress that goes on in Iraq day in
and day out thanks to the efforts of our troops.
Things that did not exist under Saddam Hussein -- like
freedom. So help pass this good news on to
others and tell them what the MSM won't:
-Did
you know that 47 countries have reestablished their
embassies in Iraq?
-Did you know that the Iraqi government now employs
1.2 million Iraqi people?
-Did you know that 3,100 schools have been renovated,
364 more are under way, and 263 new schools are now
under construction -- 38 new schools have already been
completed in Iraq?
-Did
you know that the Iraqi navy is operational? They
have 5 - 100-foot patrol craft, 34 smaller vessels
and a naval infantry regiment.
-Did you know that Iraq's Air Force consists of
three operational squadrons, which includes 9
reconnaissance and 3 US C-130 transport aircraft
(under Iraqi operational control) which operate day
and night, and will soon add 16 UH-1 helicopters and
4 Bell Jet Rangers?
-Did you know that Iraq has a counter-terrorist unit
and a Commando Battalion?
-Did you know that the Iraqi Police Service has over
55,000 fully trained and equipped police officers?
-And that there are 5 Police Academies in Iraq that
produce over 3500 new officers each 8 weeks?
-Did you know there are more than 1,100 building
projects going on in Iraq? They include in addition
to the 364 schools, 67 public clinics, 15 hospitals,
83 railroad stations, 22 oil facilities, 93 water
facilities and 69 electrical facilities.
