The cause runs much deeper than that. We have a culture based on the accumulation of wealth. Where does the average citizen turn to find information???? How do they know that on 9-11-06 2 quotes of Amadinejad were altered, 1 invented, and the congress making up stuff about what Al Beredei said as head of the UN Nuclear Regulatory commitee who won the Nobel Peace Prize. What about 9-11 where 3 buildings, 2 of which were hit by planes fell at near free fall speed into their own footprints. What about the fact that both Sistani and Al Sadr have explicitly forbidden attacks on US Soldiers. What about the 3000+ tons of Depleted Uranium used which posions the Iraqi environment and our soldiers. What about the fact that most of the Iraqi rebuilding money has gone into building 4 huge US military bases and a large pipeline from Iraq to Kuwait???
