Why don't we see photo's like these regularly on the news or stories of our troops doing good in Iraq? or hear from Iraqi's that are glad we are there?

We need to hear the good and bad news from Iraq to make an informed opinion on the war. Do you think I am right or is the media justified not to run these kind of stories or do you think the media is running these stories and I have just not seen them?
Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master. - George Washington

The various news organs, particularly, but not exclusivly the corporate ones, are in for the bread. What will hook more viewers or that vanishing breed, readers; good news about neat stuff or pandering to our vouyerism?

That was an easy one.

Sorry, but that's all I hear is that these guys and gals are heroes, that everyone loves them.
