The Iraqi Government won't put up with the crap from the media that we must. During a war, not a bad idea. You know these Journalists are dying to "sob sister" this takedown of Sadr. Belmont club More that just 'sob sister' it; the Al Jazeera types have shown themselves more than willing to make themselves useful to the insurgents by relaying and broadcasting information for them. But the logical flaw in this conception was that civilization could put aside these constraints in a moment. Hiroshima and Dresden are reminders that it could. It takes more than a moment; it's gradual and reluctant, but it happens when it is shown to be necessary. Once again, as it so many instances, Israel/Pal is the practice run that shows the direction things will go. The Israelis are blowing up the houses of terrorists, raiding bomb factories in the territories, and building a defense wall. There is a lot of wailing about this and they used to listen to it, pause, withdraw, move tentatively, wait for the next attack. By now they snort in contempt and continue doing what they have decided is necessary.
