I don't get why Western media sources were attacking them for showing picures of Coalition dead, when many times on the BBC I saw dead Iraqi troops up close as they drove by.

Is there a Mr. Flibble - Al Qaeda connection?

I only saw one body that was covered up from a distance and I watch way to much war coverage. We were pretty even here.

I saw plenty of them with our coverage, but then again our media generally sucks for been hipacrits(sp?)

I didn't see many dead, and those that I did see had their faces covered in some way and were not paraded around as a trophy. They were buried in the most dignified manner possible under those conditions, unlike our men and women who were dumped in shallow graves behind a hospital and suffered damage due to rain and were missing limbs and body parts.

From what I saw of the two british dead shown on tv, it was the same as shown on the BBC, I do not recall any faces been covered...

looks like some ppl have special filters applied to their visual organs...but hey....we all have our problems,don't we?

People live differently too in other countries. I think it's like attacking a bunch of cannibals, then complaining that they ate your dead after they got some kills.
