Iraqnophobia

An unusually strong fear of the success that the Iraqi people are having in Iraq (with elections, democracy, and a constitution; with relatively few terror attacks, and a huge renewal of hope). Usually brought on by years of declaring that the US couldn't possibly succeed, followed by years of success among US and Iraqi forces.

"The mainstream press seems to be suffering from Iraqnophobia. They rarely mention the monumental success that the Iraqi people have been able to secure with our help, and they continually mention every time an innocent person or soldier dies for the cause of freedom."
