DIDN'T THEY TELL US BAGHDAD WAS SECURE?

The mainstream media in the United States keeps telling the American public that the "surge" is working so well that Baghdad is now secure and people are out and about and enjoying life on the streets of Baghdad.

Well, not quite all the streets of Baghdad are secure.

It is a pity the MM in the U.S. has soldout their credibility to the Bush Administration and keep hiding from the American public what is REALLY taking place on the streets of Baghdad.

It is our job to be the ONLY blogger in the United States who has devoted himself to telling the public the truth about conditions in both Iraq and Aghanistan.

Daily and sometimes several times a day we bring readers of this blog updates on the latest from Iraq and Afghanistan culled from a wide assortment of international news organizations who feel the Iraq and Afghanistan wars are something worth covering unlike their counterparts in the American press who have abandoned the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. .

We hope you will keep coming back.
