My father volunteered to go to Iraq and I have a couple of friends who have either been, or are over there now. My father always says, “If it bleeds it leads.” concerning the media reporting of Iraq. The media has decided to report only the deaths of soldiers and civilians in an attempt to influence the outcome of the U.S. led war in Iraq. I pray to god that most of the news does not get back to the servicemen in Iraq. The media portrays them as murderers, not the heroes they are. God bless them all, and good luck.
