For the best news coverage with a home town flavor there is no better reading than the Lone Star Iconoclast right out of Crawford Texas. Dubya's home town....Crawford Texas. I don't know if he reads it, but he should put in the archives of his soon to be Presidential Library, as it will be a part of world history.
Battle of Baghdad Cover-Up Four Years Later
Captain Eric H. May, Ghost Troop Founder
Interview With
CAPTAIN ERIC MAY
Ghost Troop Commander

CRAWFORD — April 5-8 marks the fourth anniversary of the Battle of Baghdad, the bloody battle that was the lead-up to President Bush’s infamous and untruthful claim on May 1, 2003, of "Mission Accomplished."
However, according to news sources overseas, including American military operatives and various investigators, all was not what it seemed at Baghdad Airport. They claim that the Battle of Baghdad was largely covered up as something the American public should not see, with U.S. news coverage instead focusing on a staged photo-op rescue of captive Private Jessica Lynch and later the pulling down of the Saddam Hussein statue, as symbolic of an easy victory.
Captain Eric H. May, a former intelligence and public affairs officer in the military, told The Iconoclast, "The biggest story of the war became a non-event when the truth of the matter was that it was simply too bloody an event to report." He says that this played a part in persuading the American public to forfeit "thinking for themselves" when it came to this war.
As a unique way to acknowledge and honor the fallen — and oft-forgotten — soldiers in the Battle of Baghdad, Captain May formed what he calls Ghost Troop, an independent military cyber-cavalry movement aimed at fighting governmental propaganda — a/k/a info-war.
This hometown newspaper right in Dumbya's neighborhood has given excellent coverage in many areas with some comprehensive articles on such subjects as Depleted Uranium warheads.
