Pardon my crudenes but parts is parts. Everyone knows that there are dismembered body parts and dead bodies everywhere.To broadcast it as propaganda as radical nations do would be both assinine and disrespectful to the families of the deceased.
America does not need to sink to that level to rally the patriotism of it's citizens.

I think the U.S. media should show the us what really happened. Look, when we retaliate, there WILL be civilian casualties. As gruesome as it sounds now, the terrorists and their sponsors will have no problem circulating pictures of their dead and wounded to bolster anti-U.S. sentiment.
War is awful. Censoring the images may seem like it's in our best interest now, but remember how quick the media was to believe Saddam's pathetic "Baby milk factory" pictures during/after the Gulf War.

So the truth is propaganda? I don't want to see it either, but I want to make that decision for myself, not have it made for me by news outlets I don't necessarily trust in the first place. That's why televison remotes have an "off" button.
