ESSAY
"The Iraqi Conflict"
Categories
Excerpt (first and last two sentences)
"As was seemingly inevitable two weeks ago, the United States and its allied
forces have begun a campaign to rid Iraq of the Saddam Hussein lead government.
I would like to focus on how Bush and the media have reported the war thus far
and how the world public seems to be reacting....
...I argue that it may be in the psychological warfare that Hussein has the US
beat. Encouraging civilians to treat this was as a jihad, a holy war, and
purposefully putting them in front of US guns and missiles will help him win
world support, or at least reinforce what he already had. In the meantime, Bush
calls for patients, as our troops continue there march north to Baghdad."
