} Viva La Difference {

Just a brief posting concerning the difference between the troops trying to restore order to Iraq and its citizens and the terrorist who were in charge previously.
U.S. Army PFC Stephen Tschiderer, A proud memeber of " THE BIG RED ONE" while on routine patrol was shot in the chest by a terrorist (note I did not say insurgent). After being shot and protected by his body armour Pvt Tschiderer recovered his wits and within a few seconds began to return fire along with the rest of his patrol. Within two minutes of him being attacked he had secured the person who shot him and was administering first aid to him.
That is the difference between terrorists and soldiers who are attempting to bring liberty to a country that has not known freedom for centuries.Oh by the way it has not been shown on the networks as far as I know and there is video available..........perhaps the msm wants our citizens to have a different view of the reality that is Iraq.At least that is the way I see it here on Arrathorns Alley

You expect more out of reporters who should know what the word insurgent means. When they are attacking us, they are terrorists. When they are attacking their government or themselves, they are insurgents.
Insurgent, adjective
1. Rising in revolt against established authority, especially a government.
2. Rebelling against the leadership of a political party.
Therefore, they are not freedom fighters a la Che Guevara they are murderers and need disposed of.

It's the age old story, good news doesn't make the news! It's up to us bloggers to change that!
