I have read on other threads that after victory was declared against Germany and Japan there was a considerable period of time, and the loss of a considerable number of American soldiers lives at the hands of die hards, in both those countries.

If this is the case, why isn't it being publicized to, at the very least, educate the general public as to the inevitable messiness and loss of life that follows any victory? As usual, the field is being ceded to the left's propaganda machine.

As you point out, there has been some reporting of the US' experience in post-war Germany and Japan. Word and historical perspective is out there. Unfortunately, the usual suspects (mainstream media) don't seem to be able or don't seem to want to provide a historical perspective on post-war Iraq. I suspect the Bush Administration hasn't been hammering the point because a large majority of Americans support the President and our presence in Iraq (i.e., the naysayers aren't winning).
