Congratulations to the Lions of Mesopotamia for winning the Asian Cup. You did not let us down. You brought a smile and joy to our hearts, and took the pain out of our chests even if it was for one day.

Below are two video clips taken by my friends when they took the streets celebrating the soccer victory. Despite the daily horrors, people defeated their fear and celebrated for the first time since the war started.

Congratulations to the Iraqi Soccer Team and to all Iraqi people! This is a day that unites Iraq. I hope for many more days like today!
I join with David above, in congratulating the Iraqi people on their wonderful win. United you stand, divided you fall.

BT,
I knew you would blog about the victory. Congratulations to Iraq and Iraqis.
Congratulations. Now, to quote Younis:
"I want America to go out," he said. "Today, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, but out. I wish the American people didn't invade Iraq and, hopefully, it will be over soon."
