Our press has failed to convey the strong opposition of Iraqis to the continued presence of US and other foreign troops in their country. They are still repeating the bullshit line that we "liberated" Iraq. Just look at the front page of MSNBC the other day! They published a less than flattering picture of Muqtada al-Sadr, the Shia cleric in Najaf, showing him at his darkest best and in need in dental work.
Pictures such as that are used as propaganda, to reassure the gullible and self-absorbed American public that we are the good guys and they are the bad guys. This is why we like despots that speak good English and that dress in business suits, people like Allawi or Egypt's Mubarak.
