In our writings here and elsewhere, the two of us have spent a great deal of time, ink, and energy discussing the Iraq war and attempting to convey stories about the mission that can't be found in the mainstream media. We've criticized the quality of the media's own reportage on events in the Middle East. We've pointed out episodes of anti-war bias, ignorance, and outright fabrications ad nauseam, all the while seeking to "correct the record" with a better reflection of events and developments as they actually are, rather than as they appear through the mainstream media's anti-war, anti-Bush prism.
Why have we spent so much time and energy on this pursuit? Because the evidence we see suggests a very different picture of the situation on the ground in Iraq than the one which the media presents day in and day out.
