As much as I detest what Mike Nifong did to the Duke lacrosse players, their case should not have near the headlines that the Haditha case should be generating.
The reason Haditha is in a news backwater is twofold, I think:
1. The liberal media doesn’t want the truth to injure their liberal accusers, Murtha and the like.
2. They don’t have the guts to go to the streets in Iraq and investigate. Our Marines had to be on those streets, but the Greta Van’s of the world need comfy hotels, safe travel near nice restaurants, and friendly sheeple who won’t put a bullet between their eyes just for being an American.
Agreed! The only real coverage the hearings are getting is in the San Diego area. And this case is of paramount importance to the conduct of the war on terror. Plus, it’s great fun to follow (as long as it keeps going this well!)
