Why does the Drive by Media only report the bad things about the war in Iraq? Why do they only focus on the few bad things some soliders have done? Instead of telling us about some of heroic things that have happened. Why do they not tell us about the people their that love and want our help in giving them FREEDOM?
My brother told me he couldn't walk down the street without having Iraqies surrounding him and thanking him giving him flowers, hugging him, shaking his hand, women old & young Kissing his cheeks.

MORE THAN 3079 PEOPLE KILLED IN IRAQ SO FAR, THIS MONTH. I WOULDN'T KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE GOOD NEWS IN THAT. EVEN THE SOB SADDAM WOULDN'T HAVE KILLED THAT MANY PEOPLE. NEARLY 3000 AMERICAN TROOPS, PLUS MILLIONS OF IRAQIS. IF YOU WANT GOOD NEWS, LOOK AT SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN IRAQ.

Yes, I certatinly am. And you are absoulouotlly 100% correct to say that all what comes in the national news is only bad about Iraq and nothing good at all. Iraq is a historical country and was one of the richest in oil (before american invasion ofcourse) and richest in arabic heritage. It is true that it had a president who was a dictator before but what does this affect America which suddenly came rushing to invade it. Actually this invasion is meant for OIL only, oil only! America brings this bad news of Iraq to hide its bad doings, which is worse, in Iraq. What can you say about a person who starts a fight and blames everything on the victim by saying "It's not my fault, it's his fault". Strange isn't it. To tell you the truth, I am shamefully and angrilly tired of my country doing this.

Because when people are getting blown up daily and when people are being burned alive in front of policemen, it matters little that Iraqi citizens kiss the hands of soldiers. yes, they may want freedom, but security is also extremely important and if you can't walk outside your home without being shot at, freedom matters little.
It's a civil war and people like your brother are in the midst of it. Hopefully, he will make it back alive.

Why don't you travel over there and report back to us when you return?
