Propaganda war - best liar wins?

This war is getting really weird.
1 ) There was brief mention of a General being relieved of his command in IRAQ, but no one will say anything else. No comment.
2 ) The star MSNBC Reporter, 'embedded' with the 3rd Infantry Division, all of a sudden turns up dead from a blood clot?! This is the same division that is supposedly moving 'at will' into and around Baghdad nowadays.
3 ) Both sides claim control of Saddam International airport, but no one has any pictures to prove it.
4 ) Saddam is dead, now he's not, now he's a double, now he is dead, now he is not.
5 ) US Forces have taken control of buildings in Baghdad, but only for a few minutes to 'prove they could.' ??!!??
6 ) US Troops have seized the information ministry, er, maybe not. (Dang that Iraqi information Minister that keeps showing up on TV to call US Troops cowards)
7 ) US Troops have launched 'the big one' - er maybe not just yet, but soon!
8 ) Hundreds, no, thousands of Iraqi soldiers are dead, but there are just a few US Soldiers that were only wounded.
9 ) The Iraqi people will greet our troops with open arms, er, well they are afraid to right now, but soon they will! Right now they are busy slipping in and out of uniforms so they can shoot at US troops from rooftops, but soon they will run out of ammo and THEN they will bring flowers to greet their liberators. Maybe. Eventually.
10) This whole thing is to disarm Saddam of his Weapons of Mass destruction, but now the US command has deemed it safe for the troops to take off the chem warfare suits. (Where are those dadgum WMD anyway?)
11) Never mind, US Troops are there to LIBERATE the IRAQI people, problem is they won't stay in uniform long enough to tell them apart.
12) There are thousands of people streaming into IRAQ from Jordan, Syria, Sudan and all the other neighboring countries to...help the IRAQI military! But wait, weren't they supposed to hate Saddam Hussein?
Oh, and what happened to that other reporter guy, Peter Arnett? NBC & National Geographic fired him for telling the truth.
More than once I have heard US commanders clearly state that they did not want a "fair fight", and then they are indignant when the Iraqis fight back with whatever means they have at their disposal. US Politicians are absolutely offended at a few pictures of POW's but then plaster hundreds of pictures all over the airwaves themselves. They demand adherence to the Geneva Convention, but what about those several hundred being held without charges in custody at Guantanamo in Cuba?
US Troops are there to LIBERATE the Iraqi people and WILL NOT take over the country, well, at least not FOREVER. Of course there will be a military 'police' presence to maintain 'PEACE' by any measure of force required.
This thing is NOT about oil, but that is all they have there, it was the very first objective to take control of, the administration in control of the US are all deeply connected to big oil, and now we have news that in fact deals are already being made and big oil is poised to move in as soon as it is safe. They have already sent in teams of specialists (at $50k per day) to put out the few fires that were started.
Well, who really cares anyway? As long as the price of gasoline comes back down below $2 a gallon, what difference does it make if a few thousand third world peasants are killed? I mean after all, they live in huts and they are starving anyway, and, they are godless heathens that don't even believe in Jesus Christ!
Just how did our oil get under their sand anyway?
"The Iraqi people gotta know, see, they gotta know..they..will..be..liberated. And Saddam Hussein..will..be..removed..no..matter..how..long..it..takes."
