More Good News from Iraq

From that bastion of right wing news, the New York Times reports good news on some of the worst streets in Baghdad.
On Haifa Street, at least, insurgents are attacking in smaller numbers, and with less intensity; mortar attacks into the Green Zone have diminished sharply; major raids have uncovered large weapons caches; and some rebel leaders have been arrested or killed.

But the change American commanders see as more promising than any other here is the deployment of large numbers of Iraqi troops...Haifa Street has become an early test of that strategy.
