Reply #9: Wow, what an article. That is a MUST read about the side we never

hear about, and it comes from someone who has a 1st-hand account of the injuries and suffering. Thanks for providing that link.

Here's another snip:

"I really don't know why it's not out there for all of us to see. The question is why isn't our news media reporting this night after night so the American people can know about it. If you know about it, then why isn't CNN or NBC pushing this stuff?

What you see on TV and what you see in reality, is like night and day. The embedding of the journalists seemed to sterilize the war. When I heard them report, it was like it was a football game. The true effects of war are just awful. I'm now hearing estimates of upward of 30,000 in terms of civilian deaths. Let alone, all the Iraqis who have been injured."

Once again, the link to the entire article: http://www.alternet.org/waroniraq/20254/
