Should the "Radical Islamic" carnage in Russia, killing more than 200, receive more "Press Coverage" than Abu Grahib?<br><br>got to let your eyes adjust

no. while this was the most unfortunate happening, there were hundreds of thousands of people, including thousands and thousands of children being killed in sudan and that received very little coverage. this russian story should be big, but the abu grahib story was our own doing and threatened our ability to complete our mission in iraq (if we have a mission) and caused us to lose much trust.<br><br>"Tribal sovereignty means that, it's sovereign.

well, it's sad stuff no matter who is president and our media largely ignores it because they'd rather hype a story about some unknown pregnant woman who was murdered by her husband and give us hundreds of hours of coverage on it instead. pathetic.<br><br>"Tribal sovereignty means that, it's sovereign.
