Yes the war should be front page material everyday. What we shouldn't see is a picture of a screaming Iraqi every week and the suppression of positive things happening in theater. Headhunter made a great point about how silent things have become because the surge has been working. If the surge was failing I guarantee you outlets like CNN would be all over it.
So hundreds of Iraqis dying a month instead of thousands is a success of the Surge?
That is good news for the Iraqis.
I mean the US has driven several million Iraqis from Iraq. Finding Iraqi insurgents to kill must be an effort in diminishing returns.
We're running out of Iraqis.
After destroying their lives on a daily basis, we charge the puppet government we installed to rebuild what we've destroyed. What a lucky deal for us.
What if americans started to think about the legitimacy of the invasion and what we are really doing over there?
Why we might have....opposition to the war.
Perhaps an opposition that no amount of equal time "good news" can bury.
