[operation clinton cleanup]

Not meant to be a chide; simply a reminder for others coming in later on to read the thread.

Didn't take it that way... You are right though, a helicopter going down with 2 souls aboard makes more headlines than a IED taking out a 6 man patrol.

Good then we're cool, didn't mean to come across all "holier than thou" and that was how it looked on the screen somehow when I read it after I posted it.

I know the folks here see this for what it is, and unfortunately you are right; the AQ/MSM will see it as somehow more important than 4 or 6 or even 20 killed by an IED. It is a sad comment on our current situation with the media in general.
