The NY Times reports today that senior U.S. commanders are ready to begin thinking seriously about drawing down troop levels in Iraq, yet another subtle suggestion of progress in stabilizing a post-Saddam Iraq. The Times reports that U.S. commanders almost universally see signs of improvement, but perhaps an even more telling factor is that the Times is willing to give credence to the viewpoints of actual military commanders on the ground instead of the opinions of anti-war politicians and protestors.

One would almost be tempted to think that coalition forces and the new Iraqi government forces are not only slowing ending the Iraqi insurgency, but the American media insurgency as well.
