U.S. SOLDIER KILLED IN IRAQ. TWO OTHERS SERIOUSLY WOUNDED

Reuters News continues to report on what is happening in Iraq while FOX NEWS and the rest of the mainstream media in the United States shun reporting on anything to do with war in Iraq.

There continues to be growing signs the "surge" is a smokescreen and violence in Iraq is inching upwards

The shame of it all is the United States has 160,000 young Americans in Iraq but as far as FOX NEWS and the rest of the mainstream press in the United States is concerned it doesn't matter.

There can ONLY be one reason for the lack of Iraq War coverage by FOX NEWS and the mainstream media.

It is because very few people at FOX NEWS or any of the other mainstream news outlets ever served one day in the military of the United States of America, nor do they have a family member serving in the Armed Forces of the United States of America.
