SUBJECT: DID YOU KNOW?

Just give you an idea of the BIGGER picture. My patrols are little
compared to this:

Do you know? I DIDN'T KNOW. HOW COULD WE???

Did you know that 47 countries have reestablished their embassies in Iraq ?

Did you know that the Iraqi government currently employs 1.2 million Iraqi
people?

Did you know that 3,100 schools have been renovated, 364 schools are
under rehabilitation,
263 new schools are now under construction, and 38 new schools have been
completed in Iraq ?

Did you know that Iraq's higher educational structure consists of 20
Universities, 46 Institutes
or colleges and 4 research centers, all currently operating?

Did you know that 25 Iraq students departed for the United States in
January 2005, for the
re-established Fulbright Scholarship program?

Did you know that the Iraqi Navy is operational? They have five
100-foot patrol craft,
34 smaller vessels and a naval infantry regiment.

Did you know that Iraq's Air Force consists of three operational
squadrons, which includes 9
reconnaissance and 3 US C-130 transport aircraft (under Iraqi
operational control) which operate
day and night, and will soon add 16 UH-1 helicopters and 4 Bell Jet Rangers?

Did you know that Iraq has a counter-terrorist unit and a Commando
Battalion?

Did you know that the Iraqi Police Service has over 55,000 fully trained
and equipped police officers?

Did you know that there are 5 Police Academies in Iraq that produce over
3500 new officers each 8 weeks?

Did you know there are more than 1100 building projects going on in
Iraq? They include 364 schools,
67 public clinics, 15 hospitals, 83 railroad stations, 22 oil
facilities, 93 water facilities
and 69 electrical facilities.

Did you know that 96% of Iraqi children under the age of 5 have received
the first 2 series of
polio vaccinations?

Did you know that 4.3 million Iraqi children were enrolled in primary
school by mid October?

Did you know that there are 1,192,000 cell phone subscribers in Iraq,
and phone use has gone up 158%?

Did you know that Iraq has an independent media that consists of 75
radio stations, 180 newspapers
and 10 television stations?

Did you know that the Baghdad Stock Exchange opened in June of 2004?

Did you know that 2 candidates in the Iraqi presidential election had a
televised debate recently?

OF COURSE WE DIDN'T KNOW! WHY DIDN'T WE KNOW? OUR MEDIA WOULDN'T
TELL US!

Instead of reflecting our love for our country, we get photos of flag
burning incidents at Abu Ghraib
and people throwing snowballs at the presidential motorcades.
Tragically, the lack of accentuating the positive in Iraq serves two
purposes:

It is intended to undermine the world's perception of the United States,
thus minimizing consequent support, AND it is intended to discourage
American citizens.

---- Above facts are verifiable on the Department of Defense web site.

Telling us does not fit in with their agenda.

Instead of reflecting our love for our country, we get photos of flag
burning incidents at Abu Ghraib and people throwing snowballs at the
presidential motorcades. Tragically, the lack of accentuating the
positive in Iraq serves two purposes:

It is intended to undermine the world's perception of the United
States, thus minimizing consequent support, AND it is intended to
discourage American citizens.


The only way a consumer of US produced news media could divine the
facts outlined in your post of the positive accomplishments in Iraq is
to note the rate of reduction of US troop causalities and the
simultaneous increase in the rate of Iraq citizen casualties.

Anyone hear any SW transmissions out of Iraq lately?
