Arthur Chrenkoff's Good news from Iraq series continues (it is cross posted at his own blog and at the WSJ). For a country that is being rebuilt almost from scratch it is remarkable to see the progress being made on so many fronts. It is information you'll never see via established media channels, because good news doesn't sell...or perhaps doesn't meet with the media's natural biases on this story. Arthur's regular reports are outstanding pieces of true journalism and it's well worth investing your time looking through it all. What really stands out is the length of each report: there is plenty of good news in Iraq and we are lucky that Arthur has the foresight to put this regular compilation together.

Regardless of your views of the merits of the war, it is vital to get Iraq's rebuilding right. It seems that many of the critics of Bush and the Iraq war are still arguing the war when the far more important debate should be about the peace. On that score overall America is doing a good job.
