As far as the surge being responsible for the Greatly Appreciated Decrease in the Level of Violence in Iraq: One could argue that it is the expected Victory of the Democrats in November that has cause in Insurgents to put their AK47's under their beds, and Wait until November. If Iraqi insugents believe that the US Occupation will End thru American Political Action, why would they risk their lives fighting Americans when they are set to leave anyhow? No OCCUPATION....NO INSURGENCY JMOHR, Excellent points.
