Fallujah Secure

By Chad Evans on War
IN THE BULLPEN

.....As various reports indicate, terrorists have been going in behind the U.S. Army and Marines to set up footholds in previously cleared portions of the city. This is where the Iraqi Army has been deployed. These small groups of terrorists though are small in numbers and do not have any communication with each other, according to military analysts on the ground.

With the major combat now over in Fallujah, I cannot help but laugh at the media yet once more. Prior to the start of the invasion of Fallujah, the media was running around making the statement that this was the first offensive in an urban evironment since Vietnam. The media warned of American bloodshed reminiscent of Vietnam as well. Again the media cannot be proven more wrong more times that what has happened during the war in Iraq.

I’ve often wondered why the media chooses to look poorly on our military rather than stay objective and simply report the facts. Then again, the media has lost it’s news gathering ability and only editorializes the news rather than just reporting facts. We see this in every single area of the media’s reporting.
