[caisson71]

Thank You. As an old Cav Trooper, seeing a flight of choppers with troopers on the ground gives me a lump in my throat and a cold chill.

[EveningStar]

LOL! Of course! Doh!

[El Gato]

In answer to my question above, from the aricle linked by EveningStar:

Presidential security adviser Lt. Gen. Wafiq al-Samaraei said the operation was targeting "a bunch of strange criminals who came from outside the country and among them a bunch of Iraqi criminals who help them."

"Exclusive to FReerepublic PICTURES YOU MAY NEVER SEE IN THE (terrorist-supporting) MSM"

You could fill the Library of Congress with the news the MSM won't print. I was reading an interview the Gary Sinise did and he was telling about when he was over in Iraq (he has a charity he's involved in over there) and he saw all the good things that were happening that when he asked a newsman why they weren't reporting on that kind of news he was told because bad news sells. Is it any wonder why people in this country end up betraying the troops that are risking their lives to protect their freedoms. Also they try comparing this to Vietnam but it doesn't work. Today's military is all volunteer and if you aren't willing to make the sacrifices you shouldn't join. There are a lot of us that will do what it takes to protect this nation and our freedoms. A lot of them are serving in Afghanistan and Iraq and are doing a lot of good things that you never here about. The MSM only reports on anything that a small minority are involved in that's bad because they want to belittle everyone that serves and also puts these soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen's lives in more danger. They say they do it because the public deserves to know. Well, if that's the case then they should also report on the good. The public also deserves to know that also. If the MSM was honestly fair and impartial, the polls would give a different picture of what public opinion really is.
