Subject: RE: BS: Another Comment from the Front Lines
I keep thinking that if the f'ing government doesn't want us to "see" war they shouldn't be waging it.

Yes, we have an increased technological ability to bring it up close and that makes it more real for everyone.

Those who try to censor what we see, hear, and feel are either ashamed or worried that they will lose support for their war. What other reason could they have for not wanting graphic reporting? I don't need Donald Rumsfeld to protect me from the truth, I can see what he is all about every time he goes on television. I despise the man.
