Thousands Returning To Baghdad

It just keeps getting worse for the retreat and defeat crowd (h/t Blogs for Bush)

In a dramatic turnaround, more than 3,000 Iraqi families driven out of their Baghdad neighborhoods have returned to their homes in the past three months as sectarian violence has dropped, the government said Saturday.

Now what, liberals? What will the talking points be? How will you continue to call for retreat and defeat as even the MSM is having to admit that things are getting better and better in Iraq? Let’s ask Captain Ed

The Times notes that the defeatists have changed tactics. Where they previously argued that every piece of bad news meant that we should flee Iraq, now they argue that the decline in violence gives us a final opportunity to declare defeat and run away. They want to walk away from a strategic victory just to salvage their own credibility, ignoring what a stabilized and democratic Iraq could mean not just for the Iraqis but for the entire Middle East.

Oh, and BTW

Iraqi Special Operations Forces conducted a raid Oct. 29 in Khadra detaining a suspected al Qaeda in Iraq terrorist network leader and three others.

They did that with guidence from US Special Forces advisors. Looks like the Iraqi military is making great strides.
