Merry Christmas

UPDATE: Michael Yon sends along a Christmas thank you letter from Iraq.

This Christmas has seen some merriment in places where it was not present last year. One place is Iraq. Don’t tell our Democratic friends. Another is Bethlehem. I don’t buy the Tribune’s theory that it is “The Peace Process” that is responsible. Maybe the Palestinians are desperate for some tourist dollars. They have driven away almost all forms of commerce as they turn the West Bank into a Hobbesian nightmare. Whatever it is, it’s nice to see it. More Christmas spirit here. Look closely. Those are Shiites attending mass.Merry Christmas.

    That is indeed good news. How sad when political primacy trumps that good news in any direction.

    Best wishes to you, your family, and other posters and readers….

    It’s snowing a little bit up here, so it is time to engage my sons in a little snow fight….
