One Hell of a Week

Saturday, December 20, 2003

This week has been bigger than most. If we count the week starting with last Saturday, we've had:

Saturday: Saddam is captured.
Sunday: The capture of Saddam is announced to the world.
Monday: France pledging to reduce Iraq's debt. (Along with Germany and Russia, later in the week.)
Tuesday: 11 insurgents killed, 79 more captured.
Wednesday: SpaceShipOne exceeds the speed of sound, the first time a privately funded plane has done so (successfully?). Iraq's Foreign minister scolds the UN for inaction over the course of many years.
Friday: A Fedayeen cell was taken down, through the use of leads generated by the capture of Saddam. Libya chooses to give up its WMDs.

Overall, a good week for the good guys.
