Why should the U.S. or Israel give a *uck what the press thinks. You don't run a war assuaging the press. How on Earth would we have won WWII if we cared about the press' opinion how it was being fought. This is ridiculous. Remove the press from any war zones. That the U.S. or Israel won't be committng atrocities is a given IMHO. Look at how Islam views life, compared to the U.S. and Israel. Reality check.

We were a pretty xenophobic lot in the 40's - Japs & Jerrys, Huns & Nips could be found in all our papers and radio reports. War fought without political consideration leaves you with consequences that last centuries - The Crusades, Sherman & the Georgia thing, & the Rape of Nanking come to mind.
