'Iraq is peaceful' claims US Military

Yeah right.

The U.S. military spokesman in Iraq asserted Thursday that major violence is largely confined to just three of the country's 18 provinces, but fighting there raged on with at least 58 people killed in execution-style slayings, bombings and gunbattles.

Well when you say it like that, it all makes sense. Except the one little fact that makes that the dumbest statement ever. The fact that about 50% of the Iraqi population live in those three provinces.
