Is the Iraq War just merely a political conflict or really a War?

The Iraq War has been awfully quiet these days. I read historical documentaries about other wars and, every time there's a war, It would cause much panic and it would all be on the news and everything. Officials would be all over the nation trying to find recruits and signs are up.

But the Iraq war is completely different. It's so quiet and "way over there" kind of thing. People don't even know if it's still a conflict or it's over a while ago

It's so quiet they forgot. Why? It makes me think that the Iraq "war" is just a political conflict, and not really a war....

Proof!! Real easy to get to Penn Ave in Washington

Just Yesterday there were 10s of THOUSANDS of people protesting on the state Capitol lawn and Pennsylvania ave and today the Washington Post had nothing in there paper about an Historical Event. The Liberal Media Did next to Nothing to cover whats in there own back yard. So how could Anyone trust the News censorship in not reporting NEWS in a un Bias way or how about just show up to report it.

It has NOTHING to do about there resources. We had LIVE T.V. when the war started. Reporters on the front lines, but at that time it was because the Dem's and Reps were more united on that issue. 9/11 was real. Now its back to the same old censorship.

2+2 if things aren't going well over there why would they report that and make the New President look bad pulling all the troops out. That sword is double edge. How can you trust the Liberal Media to tell you the full story for any citizen to make a discussion period either way.??!!!

But you live in democracy, wait a minute that doesn't give you the right to know, just the press free to print what they like. You are objecting to the freedom of the press? I don't think freedom of the press said anything about unbiased reporting, in fact the object was probably that they could be as biased as they liked. So what you actually have is the right to be a mushroom (kept in the dark and fed on..). Now you are fortunate because modern advances mean you don't have to read a newspaper or watch TV, you can get on the net and get your news elsewhere. I do. Surely you don't want to watch war live?
