Progress Report on Iraq

Let's hope you didn't have to hear this good news here first. Yesterday, the Associated Press reported:

Since the Baghdad security crackdown was formally launched on Feb. 14, there has been a sharp drop in the number of victims of sectarian death squads. The number of bodies found has dropped by nearly 50 percent - to 494 last month as of Feb. 26, compared with 954 in January and 1,222 in December.
