Double standards?

"Mr Rumsfeld said the footage was a violation of Geneva Convention provisions banning the photographing or interrogation by media of those captured in battle.
Extensive footage, however, has been released of US troops holding and searching Iraqi POWs, and of Iraqi dead."

<<We weren't angry before, just determined>> The Iraqis got angry as a result of your determination. You wouldn't expect them to react nicely, would you?

The assault will grind to a halt in less than 48 hours, that because the original tactic/strategy didn't work.

Witness the Iraqi government offering cash rewards for prisioners. The invaders will be hunted down for the money they are worth. Hence they attacking the weak side of the forces just to achieve their own propaganda coup.
