Good news from Iraq, Part 12


Here are some stories from the past two weeks that not unexpectedly got drowned out by military offensives, terrorist attacks, beheadings, and the increasingly shrill political debate about who lost Iraq, who can get it back and why should we bother anyway. To point out such good news stories is not to deny or downplay all the problems and challenges, but to provide an additional perspective on the events in Iraq. Despite all the frenzy, only time - and not today's newsmakers - will tell which stories will prove to be of more long-term consequence for the people of Iraq.
