The American people never knew, at the time, that we had been victorious during the Tet Offensive. It was the turning point in US opinion that lost the VN war at home, thanks to the media.
Watched Rumsfeld and Pace at a presser this afternoon and every question was about the casualties of the past few days and *civil war*. The media is anxious for some huge attack and one in the Green Zone that implicated the Iraqi government and security forces would have been just the ticket for them.
IMO, this is not being publicized here because it wasn't successful and shows that Iraqi Intelligence is doing a good job.
