9-10
Do you remember September 10, 2001? What were you doing that day?

You will not see stories about people like Iraqi Army Major Fakhir Ibrahim Mohammad in the mainstream media simply because he is proof that the Iraqis are succeeding at taking over the security of their own country. Some people—people who have actually spent quite a bit of time in Iraq and actually know what is going on there—predict that Iraq has already been won because of people like Major Mohammad.
