It is too perplexing to consider that Arabs expect a higher standard of humanity from Americans than they do from themselves.

Well, I guess they know themselves best.

I'm not really sure why we're in a public relations war with terrorists, or any enemy of our country

Because, unlike WW II, we do not have either mandatory press censorship or an official governemnt propaganda organization.

You need both to win wars.

Are you saying that in the 1940's the news media was liberal and wanted us to lose like they do now, but couldn't do it because of censorship?

I'm saying that you don't have any idea what they were, and it doesn't matter, because if they printed or spoke then as they do now, they would have been in a Federal prison until September 2, 1945.
