Ah, but has it been *denied* by anyone? We hear stories about the bad things that happen, but never hear about the good things. For example, has anyone heard anything about lootings recently?
Let's put it this way: let's say that every time you look at the evening news, you hear about dozens of murders that happened overnight in Los Angeles. Suppose you never hear anything else, and have never been to LA. Would you assume that LA is dangerous and deadly; that it in fact is pretty much a war-zone?
The things this guy says make perfect sense; it is highly unlikely that the things we see on TV are very widespread in Iraq, or we'd be hearing about hundreds of US soldiers dying every day...
