    Times Gets With Times & Successes In Iraq

    "Gray Lady Hedges" by Ralph Peters at the NY Post discusses the startled ripples that whipped through the mainstream media after Michael O'Hanlon and Kenneth Pollack of the Brookings Institute, published a piece in the New York Times that said that the US just might win in Iraq.  They had both been to Iraq - like the NY Times outstanding reporter John Burns - but instead relied on arts contributor Frank Rich for his opinions - from the Big Apple rather than from the Red Zones of Iraq. 

    Peters notes that all of what O'Hanlon and Pollack reported was out there in plain sight and has been reported by any number of military bloggers and other reliable military sources.  Unfortunately, the talking heads in the Green Room Zone have held sway until this recent chink in the armor Monday.  The question is - will it last?
