The Sounds of Peace

Col. Stephen Davis, commander of Marine Regimental Combat Team 2, which is responsible for much of western Iraq, quoted in yesterday’s New York Times:

“We’re not going anywhere,” he told the murmuring crowd, adding that as long as there were attacks against Iraqi or American troops the house searches and roadblocks and bridge closings would continue.

“Some of you are concerned about the

attack helicopters and mortar fire from

the base,” he said. “I will tell you this:

those are the sounds of peace.”


--My God.--
