| The media is really , really one sided, people only hear of the lives lost, and property ruined. Thats it, unless the coaliton catches a ring leader of a terror or kidknapping organization. They only report on the negative aspects of the situation in Iraq.
But , in reality to the violence, there are roads being paved, schools being built, and people , from all aspects of the Iraqi government, and the Coalition , trying their best, to make the country safe, and a better place for the inhabitants, and to keep violent terror agents, at bay.
I think, that if the news and media did cover everything, that people would have enough info to truely base their opinions on about the situation in Iraq.
I remeber reading this somewhere, Although I dont remeber, but, there are two ways to end a life in war.
By lives spent, to try accomplish your goals as a last resort, that benifits many.
And
By lives wasted, on poor judgments, and that hurt many.
I think that has a lot to do with it as well.
But, unless every coalition citizen, walks with , and talks to, to the ones there, I guess we will never know.
