Media's wet dreams of another Vietnam
By all accounts fierce fighting continues tonight on two Iraqi fronts; in Fallujah against Sunni Baath-overs, and in Baghdad and the south against Shia militias. Meanwhile the world media salivates over a prospect of an all-out civil war, "quagmire" or "another Vietnam." Arnaud de Borchgrave notes in his column for the United Press International news service that the only way Iraq might turn into another Vietnam is if we let the lefty media do so. There are parallels between the two conflicts, but not the obvious ones the left wants you to buy.
