The Media's War on War

THE TRUTH DONT MATTER NO MORE

The mainstream media in this country and around the world has begun to take matters into their own hands while reporting war stories. Recently, Reuters, a very powerful and influential news agency, was busted doctoring photos of the destruction in Lebanon. The did not only do it once by the way, and I have even heard reports saying they actually have software to screw with their pictures. Amazingly, the liberal media in this country isnt not really reporting this story, they are much more interested in every single civilian death in Lebanon and what Mel Gibson does on his weekends. Above is the reason why it is almost impossible to win a war in a world that has 24 hour constant news media with embedded journalists. When every single war plan, every shot fired, and every death is reported and obsessed over, nobody can prevail.

Now that fact has taken a turn for the worse, it thats possible. Now, not only will news outlets harp over every issue that hurts the cause, they will take it upon themselves to make the news. Obviously this is very dangerous. Neither the United States, nor Israel, will ever get a fair shake in the media, especially overseas. Unfortunetaly, many world leaders, including here in the states, sincerely care about what other people think. This is a war where we must look past the fact much of the world either sypmothizes with terrorists, or are terrorists themselves. We must look at successful wars of the past, and use those harsh tactics to defeat terror, even if those tactics are bloody and unpopular. Liberals cannot keep this country safe, I honestly do not know what will happen if they get into power. Negotiating doesnt work, and all those people want to do is talk. Talk to Hezbollah, talk to Hamas, talk to Syria, talk to Iran, talk to North Korean, Id even be willing to be that they would want to talk to Bin Laden. Britain negotiated with Hitler in 1938, and thank God they did. It saved the world a terrible war and millions of lives. Oh wait, nevermind. Keep negotiating.
