DO YOU HEAR IT?

During the Bush Administration there were daily headlines and very loud commentary by the press and main stream media (MSM) about the horrors of the war in Iraq. Daily, the number of soldiers who died was detailed in gory reports. There were opinions and disclosures (some actually true) about the cost and poor leadership regarding the war. A new General was finally placed in charge who dealt with the poor planning and actually turned the Iraq war around which led to victory over the organized armies as well as the insurgents. But still, the critics kept up their attacks and the body count was updated.

Now, with a new Administration in charge virtually ALL of the negative reporting has ceased. This transformation occurred virtually overnight as soon as the new President was placed in charge(?)!

Today, it is almost impossible to see anything related in the Press, the MSM, or even the Internet regarding the operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya. As well as virtual silence about the number of soldiers killed or wounded in those theaters.

So, the question is; WHY? I suspect that people are still dying and shootings and roadside bombs are being detonated. But, now we are kept in the dark about these occurrences.

I still believe that these costly wars (especially the ones in Afghanistan and Libya) are wrong and useless to the USA, and should be immediately terminated and ALL of our personnel should be returned to the US A. Then, these returning soldiers could be better employed sealing our southern border with Mexico (fully armed with orders to shoot as required).

The silence is truly deafening.
