I'll never forget the Army Ranger I met this summer after he came off the plane from Iraq. He was talking to me and another gentleman in the airport coffee shop. We thanked him for his service. The other guy (I would guess he was a vet) asked him how things were going over there. He said, very seriously,
things are going great. Don't believe the media, they have it all wrong.I'll never forget the look in his face as he said that.
I'm not saying this to advertise my blog but I set it up specifically to try and get the message that there is a lot of good news coming out Iraq that isn't being covered by the press. Every day when I go through the various military and government press releases there's another news release about the rebuilding that's being done. For instance they're spending 10 million dollars on renovating and building hospitals, schools and government building starting in October. You don't see those things in the msm and it makes me sick.
