Not many Americans have access to any information except what they read in the papers or on TV. Furthermore, so much of what is reported to taken from the AP or Reuters or the NYT. If the view of Iraq presented by the administration has been too sanquine, that of the media has been over the top, and "facts" gathers by Arab stringers and filtered through editors who have been hostile to intervention from day one. Reports from Iraq tell us that while things have no gotten "better", they are by no means as bad as what is reported. The thing to remember is that the Muslims--all of them-- do not want us in the Middle East, they do not want us to set up a client state, and certainly they do not want Israel. If they had their way, they would get us to give us our unconditional support of Israel, which has been the cornerstone of our policy since Nixon's time. I think the Europeans, or many of them, would love to be rid of Israel.
Nonsense. Internet usage in the United States is at almost 70%.
The thing to remember is that the Muslims--all of them-- do not want us in the Middle East...
No kidding.
they do not want us to set up a client state
Of course they don't.
and certainly they do not want Israel.
The Israeli's don't need 140,000 American soldiers to keep their country from falling into anarchy or to help them wage war.
I don't know what your point was.
