Iraqis welcome coalition forces

I was watching the news this morning as I waited for Giles to pick me up and they were talking to one of their embedded reporters. (For those who don't know, embedded reporters are 'embedded' in a unit, meaning they travel into battle with them.) He said that as their convoy rolled through a village/town/whatever, all the houses had their white flags out and - I like this part - people came out of their houses and were giving the convoy the thumbs-up sign.

I hope it's like this throughout the rest of the country; it would go a long way into helping me believe that we're doing the right thing.
