Media Aiding Terrorists in Iraq!

Here is a GREAT article by a Lt. Col. in our armed forces that is saying what I have been saying for over a year; the “free” press seems to be interested in defeating the USA in Iraq.

Here are a few excerpts (CLICK ON THE TITLE TO SEE ENTIRE ARTICLE)…

World’s view of Iraqi reality is distorted
By LTC Tim Ryan – Guest Columnist

All right, I’ve had enough.

I am tired of reading distorted and grossly exaggerated stories from major news organizations about the “failures” in the war in Iraq. “The most trusted name in news” and a long list of others continue to misrepresent the scale of events in Iraq. Print and video journalists are covering only a fraction of the events in Iraq and, more often than not, the events they cover are only negative.

The inaccurate picture they paint has distorted the world view of the daily realities in Iraq. The result is a further erosion of international support for the United States’ efforts there, and a strengthening of the insurgents’ resolve and recruiting efforts while weakening our own. Through their incomplete, uninformed and unbalanced reporting, many members of the media covering the war in Iraq are aiding and abetting the enemy.

Ironically, the press freedom that we have brought to this part of the world is providing support for the enemy we fight.
