So Old I'm Losing Radiation Signs

While browsing for pictures of Iraq on Yahoo search, I came up with a few sites that uplifted me a little about Iraq.
I think I've heard ALL the bad news come out of Iraq as of now, and never really noticed that I haven't heard that much good news. Seeing as such, before I made up my mind about the situation, I thought this was yet another attempt by the media, (Fox News, Al Jazeera, and the likes excluded) to brainwash people. Now, the only good news I hear from Iraq is from my dad who has friends in Kurdistan Iraq, the Good Iraq as he jokes. Now, my dad also has friends in Baghdad, and those guys have a hard time trying to get home to dying mothers and pregnant wives who will give birth very shortly, my heart goes out to them, knowing that I may one day be in that situation, but hopefully not.
Back on topic, as I was browsing through the search engine, I came up with sites here and there that promoted the good news. Now, I didn't read through all of the two sites I'm giving you now, so forgive if there is some garbage amongst the links. By garbage I mean obviously nationalistic bullshit. But I don't think there is from the sites themselves, although I can say nothing for the critics and/or fans who post there.

Trying to provide you with oposing arguments/links, I did another search on google, and let's just say that I don't need to sort through all the bad news and provide it to you, it's only the word "Iraq" and a click away.
