"What do I see instead, a bunch of people condemning our military for fighting back against this onslaught of lies and paying a few reporters to get the truth out."

The truth defined and paid for by the American military in occupied Iraq isn't likely to be regarded as the "truth" by the Iraqis. If you can't see this, you're an idiot. The kneejerk support of everything we do is for fools - just like you.

What lies has Al Jazeera told? You said they do so almost everyday so name 30 of them they've told in the last month.

If the US Military wanted to tell good stories, then they shouldn't hide behind Iraqi reporters and media outlets. They should start up their own newspaper that clearly shows who writes the stories and then see if Iraqis want to buy it and read it.

THAT's the honest way of doing things. This buying of reporters is just DISHONEST.
