The media is like the rest of us- some of it is moderate, some liberal and some conservative. Any journalist who is out there risking their life to bring news of the war to me, and is trying to be reasonably fair, has my respect. Many, like Bob Woodruff, have been killed or seriously wounded in doing a job they love- so why bust their chops? They are real Americans as much as you are.

The events that unfolded from the last few days were caused by one man driving a dump truck filled with explosives. The second dump truck was destroyed by Iraq Security Forces well outside of the city causing no injuries (except for the AIF driving). Please do not let this one man's actions undermine the efforts of the outstanding Iraqi Security Forces in Tal'Afar and the stability they have created. The revenge killings were unfortunate and the situation was dealt with immediately. I would also like to add that not even one Coalition Forces personnel was even injured in these last three days and that the people of Tal'Afar have great trust in US forces here. I would have to agree with President Bush when he said that this is a model city for Iraq. I have been stationed in Tal’Afar for about 6 months now and generally it is very very quiet.
