I accept your explanations of Halliburton, Feith & Zell, and so forth, but the rest of the world generally does not.

And that brings to surface one of the worst problems I've seen in this war.. The equivalent of a "why we fight" campaign in order to explain the war to the American people in a manner that is NOT being explained by the negatively biased commercial media.

There are plenty of positive things occurring out there in Iraq, as well as the mid-east (Libya's caving in to renouncing terrorism), but they are just not being actively discussed in a manner that the American people will listen to...

And I personally believe we're not be straight with the American people in pointing out that we have a major stake in preventing Islamic militants from controlling the region and using it as an economic and political base to carry out the rest of their Jihad.
