You're Kiddin Me, Right?Fox News is reporting that the civil war in Iraq was invented by the media. Now I admit it's not a complete stretch considering how we got into Iraq in the first place, with the media repeating invented stories of nuclear capabilities and stockpiles of chemical weapons, but it's a little difficult to make up real live explosions and the pictures of the resulting rubble.If anything, the opposite is true, and there are factors working against accurate reporting from Baghdad. In this morning's Post, there was a story about the morgues in Iraq being pressured not to count the growing number of bodies. What we have is a civil war, whether the Administration wants to admit or not. And all bought and paid for by the American Taxpayer. | +Save/Share | | |
