You are so right, Jean, I've e-mailed foxnews about the garbage being sent over the airwaves. If we stand by and let the media get away with this, we are going to lose.
They are playing with the emotions of Americans just as they did during the Vietnam "police Action"

One thing that the media doesn't talk too much about is that a lot of the civilian casualties in the Gulf War were a result of Iraqi Air Defenses. All of the SAMs and AAA that gets shot into the sky comes down somewhere and it does a lot of damage.

During DESERT STORM the Iraqi press kept talking about civilian bomb casualties that were 30 miles from the closest targets and the damages shown were obviously caused by a falling SAM.

I'm sure that this same thing is happening in Afghanastan.

Six Thousand Faces: Leave the Propaganda to the Liars

The best information we have about the number of dead is a range from 2500 to 3600. Why would you inflate the number, and then tell us to leave the propaganda to the liars?

Great find, Jean! Indeed, there will be some collateral damage in Afgahnistan, but for every woman who might die accidentally (and that's what our collateral damage IS, unlike the purposeful murders by the Osama pig Larden demons), many more will eventually be saved from the abuse and murder of a talibunny goon, and thus the children of Afghanistan will be better off when we kill a few thousand of these 'brave' wife beating, child abusing, fanatical fools called Taliban.

Don't pause too long to mourn the collateral damage in Afghanistan or Pakistan or Iraq, 'cause the demons running those countries are killing more of their own people than we will accidentally kill with our war on the terrorists and the governments that harbor them. And besides, every time CNN or Newsweek, or the alphabet networks raise the specter of foreign collateral damage, I shout at the TV, "What about Americans murdered by the terrorists' purposeful collateral slaughter? Get a clue or get out of the way, damn you leftists bastards!"

Oh, and the best way to punish the sycophants of liberalism is to vote their heroes out --the criminal enterprise democrats, replacing them with some pubbies, some constitutional party folks and libertarians ... anything but democrats! God save US from liberal democrats!

The truth is like an injection of patriotism we need a portrait of a few victims of terror daily. We need to read about their hopes and their dreams that were robbed by the barbarians. If every newspaper dedicated space daily for a short vignette, we would all gain. May G-d raise their souls into everlasting life.

Right on. I've been pretty miffed that all the news talks about is anthrax, trying to grab the US by the nervous system just to increase ratings. They should be playing memorials to these people, one at a time. They should be reminding us why we need to continue to fight, not give us reasons to fear and back off. They keep spouting the Taleban, UN and liberals mantras to back off this war. It really disrespects the memory of these innocents.
