The Other Iraq

KurdsThis morning I watched a commerical on FoxNews that was called, "The Other Iraq: Thank You" Essentially, it is the Kurdistan Development Corporation broadcasting to the world, "We’re done with this war, we’re ready for business, but before we do that… we want people to know we are thankful."

This is cool on a few fronts:
The Kurds are alive and well. In fact, I’d say that this is a sign that they are ready to thrive in the new Iraq.
– The Kurds are ready to become independent, at least economically. I think it’s unrealistic to think that people will be going to Iraq for tourism any time soon, but it’s not unreasonable to see American companies begin to invest there.
– The leftist press has the wrong story on TV. Clearly, there are great things happening in Iraq but the press only likes to cover the negatives. It’s a political year… obviously there are people who want to see their team win in November.
