Unfortunately yes, but it is not their fault. We see only a small snapshot on Iraq in the news every night. We only see the bombings and the death count.
This is sortof like seeing how many people were murdered in L.A. every night due to gang violence and saying that California is a quagmire and we should have never made it a state, etc. Sure gangs are a problem, but for the most part California is a great state that functions fine. There is just a few bad neighborhoods. The same is true for Iraq.
If the partisan media and left didn't spin the war so much and showed everything that is actually being done, the public would have a much better view on Iraq.
