It's funny...though CNN covered it briefly, there are no news reports about the looters who are returning the loot to a Mosque. Apparently someone wrote their cleric and asked if looting was ok. The muslim (shi'a) cleric said no. Word went out and people are returning loot. It was a breif story, but last time I checked radio news at the top of the hour they are still harping on how the looting is bad and worse.

Thanks for pointing that out. There are so many stories we would never know about without Freerepublic. I bet we get lots more lurkers and freepers because of this tread, I started lurking 1998 on the old whitewater because of the press coverage, but this is so much worse. Where is the coverage now they don't have minders? Children in jails, children in hospitals shots by small arms by regime, missing POWs from last war, new weapons from Russia, Syria, Jordan etc.,UN food and supplies storied and not given to the people, stories about the living condition before the war?
Who is reporting about the terrorist from other countries and their training camps? No headlines about the suicide vests in the school. Where are the reporters getting stories about the soldiers leaving and going home and what they were forced to do? I saw one interview. Where are the stories about all brave and wonderful things ours guys are doing everyday? Thanks to all for this thread so we have some truthful history.
