My brother is in the Army. When he was in Iraq, part of his job was the excavation of mass graves. We are talking about hundreds of bodies per site. Why has this received so very little coverage?

This isn't a secret...here it is. There was no big secrecy involved. This was not classified.

The Liberal press wants people to believe the "its all about oil" lie.

With a push on recruiting for the military and the status of the president's reputation falling, the mass graves are being pushed under the table so that the public does not know about this. In fact military members when sent over to war are being told that they are not to discuss what they see, hear or do over in the war zone due to the fact that it could jeopordize their lives, the lives of others and the status of our countries force protection. By you posting this question tells anyone reading that your brother has violated the trust of the government and the trust that the military placed upon him to keep that information classified. Needless to say, he can be brought up on charges for acts of espionage.

Because you are watching the wrong TV and reading the wrong newspapers. It is known that many of our journalists and teachers of today are either products of the 60s or their offspring - the touchy-feely politically-correct group. They actually think we can negotiate with terrorists. Also, they think Pres. Bush "stole" the 2000 election. He played the game and won. They can't accept it. Try changing the rules in a poker game after the cards have been dealt! They don't want you to know the good news, also, we cannot show schools and hospitals at this time because it would pinpoint them for the terrorists. Watch FOXNEWS for issues presented with both democratic and republican viewpoints -- then do your own thinking.

There won't be coverage of the mass graves or any of the good things going on over there, because our media has a very anti-war agenda. Tell your brother thank you!!!

Because it is not important, and secondly I have never heard of any U.S military excavating any mass graves over there b/c of any type of disease, thats why we were burning them, but then they got all bent out of shape, b/c it is supposedly against their religion. If any military troops were to do such a thing it would be EOD to look for IED's and other dirty bombs.

it would in simple terms be that there lots else to be offended at in this conflict. Mass graves very just about mild in assessment to on a regular basis terrorism and probability of ongoing conflict. whilst mass graves have been contemporary in Europe, the conflict grew to become into already over. additionally, undergo in innovations that it grew to become into the conservatives who did not choose to get entangled in the 2nd international conflict; they might lots somewhat have enable the Europeans kick one yet another's butts on their very own continent. Liberals have been pushing for conflict against Hitler on ethical grounds. In Iraq, maximum liberals knew and agreed that Saddam grew to become into an extremely undesirable guy, yet that grew to become into not sufficient reason to danger people; somewhat, now they sense tricked into thinking Saddam grew to become right into a foul guy with WMDs who might definately have been nicely worth going after, yet now no WMDs have shown up and no-one likes being tricked. as a results of fact they have been tricked, as a results of fact they sense betrayed, they are maximum often angrier at Bush than Saddam, despite in the event that they might truthfully hate what Saddam did greater. Given general accusations of conservatives that liberals are godless, why might desire to creed rely? further, given the greater general association of liberal ideologies with racial variety, why might desire to race rely?

That could have something to do with the massive left wing media bias in America, tune in to Fox news.
