CNN's Peaceful Stroll Through Ramadi
Interesting interview via the Corner: CHETRY: And, I'm Kiran Chetry. America' top general is in Iraq
right now, and he is actually taking a surprising step. He wants to show that
things are safe enough that he could actually walk through the streets of one of
the most dangerous areas of Iraq in the Sunni Triangle. The streets of
Ramadi.
That is where General Peter Pace is right now. CNN Pentagon
Correspondent Barbara Starr is actually traveling with him as well...Are you
guys actually walking through the streets as we speak, Barbara?
VOICE OF BARBARA STARR, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Kiran, it is an
extraordinary thing. I hope everyone can hear me. We are absolutely walking
through the marketplace as we speak. General Pace just stopped and brought some
fruits and vegetables from a dealer here in the market. He is stopping to say
hello to every little kid he can find and take pictures with them.
Read the rest of this remarkable exchange and I hope Congress is paying attention.
