I agree that a few US soldiers have done some horrible things to Iraqis. This is in turn should naturally make some Iraqi fearful of US troops and that's perfectly fine.
some of us may not remember this (or may have been too young), but during the first Gulf war back in '90/91 CNN & Headline News were the greatest 'tactic spoilers', Saddam just had to turn the TV on to see where they were gonna bomb, lol

I have to disagree with you there Grim. I don't think sensorship of the media is the answer. I think tha tall news should be aired or be allowed to have the RIGHT to be aired at a certain point in time. What I do think also is that more DISCRETION needs to be employed by the media. You can broadcast all you like about a covert operation AFTER it's been concluded. During and before that's stupid I think we all agree on that. Here's a saying for you "Democracy is 340 days communism and 16 days democratic" think about that a little in the context of this thread and sensorship in general.
Basically, the government and the protective services should HUSH DEY C*NT AN DO DEY DAMN JOB and speak when it's all over.
hmm lawl if censorship on that level was allowed we wouldnt be having this discussion lawl.
