Also, the mainstream American media is heavily biased towards the left/liberal side of the spectrum. That side is, and has been for 30+ years, an anti-war crowd. There are very few, if any, reports on our nightly news about new schools being built, women going to work, or other major improvements in the quality of life for Iraqi citizens. By not showing anything positive coming from our work over there, it is fairly easy to turn all news reports into doom and gloom. You see enough bad reports and eventually you begin to think that that is the only way that things are in the part of the world. Good, positive news about advancements doesnt make for good ratings, nor does it support the left's cause of being anti-war and anti-Bush.
I agree with this as well. To tell the whole story would not be sensational and would not fit the agenda of those telling the story, any more than it would for Bush to say..."Go out and make a few kids fatherless". It is a sad fact that we are totally controlled by those that feed us information. There is lots of good work being done yet you have to search like the Dickens to find any mention of it. You would think the country is totally destroyed, all of the people are revolting, and the oil is shut down. I will be glad when Bush is re-elected so that we can get on with the whole story.
