it's really amusing how everyone is a expert when it comes to the government the war and all that shit. but what would make me appreciate you even more would be to know that you have done something good for mankind. Just remember that "What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; What we have done for others and for the world remains and is IMMORTAL." i know i haven't done anything good for Mankind myself but at least i don't talk like i know everything. well thank you and God Bless.
Let's see if half of these guys actually do reporting from Iraq now. If you want real reporting of the middle east check out Robert Fisk. Fuck the Reuters and Murdoch based accounts. They all come from military accounts. Which, lead to people telling whatever they want.
congrats. you've risked your lives to help provide bullshit proppanganda in a bullshit war for a bullshit cause.
in short, you did little to no actual service to anyone, and got money for it. i hope you or someone in your family gets shot/raped/blown up by racist douchebags on a bullshit cause. then maybe i can walk a circle or two around your house as i "report" it and pretend to give a shit.
This war is obviously bullshit but the soldiers shouldn't necesseraly take all the shit for it. Depends on their attitude really. I don't care about the punks that think its funny to go kill some people, but there are other guys who have some sense in them, and while you're there you have to be "with the cause" or whatever when they get back their able to have some sort of self reflection on the whole thing.
"They gave you those gas-masks to scare the crap out of you. They knew you wouldn't need them. But for you to play your role, you needed to be proper freaked out, so you could be a good little corporate-media pawn and talk about the "liberation" that was about to unfold."
Yes...the GIs who issued the masks they themselves had to wear were thinking about media spin during the invasion.
Hardly any US journo's have ever been into the Red Zone.

US News media is a joke, and the only way you can make yourselves feel better is to put together these little segments where you can pat yourselves on the back.
Even when the isurgents kill, the Americans get blamed. Hmm, I wonder if what they really mean is that before the Americans invaded Iraq, suicide bombings,hostage taking and sectarian violence had a whole different meaning. America's occupation is being used as the perfect excuse for violence against ordinary citizens and U.S and British soldiers(who almost never get a mention unless killed)Why does no one ever talk about the level of violence/bombings before the U.S. led invasion?
of course you fucked up their country faggots

Reporters are risking their lives? What a joke.
Very few are out in the countryside getting the real story.
