GEN Petraeus on Capitalism in Baghdad

The surge in Iraq is working and entrepreneurialism is a big part of that.

Here’s a great update on the progress in Baghdad, Iraq, as GEN David Petraeus, U.S. commander for Multi-National Force-Iraq, walks through the markets of Baghdad in a now secured area of the capital city. Note his relaxed nature, not worried about his personal safety, and perhaps even more importantly his affectionate relationship with Iraqis.
