The technology of nonstop news and the Internet means that allegations that would have been carefully checked out a generation ago no longer are. We now have a 24-hour-a-day news cycle. News gets used up very quickly and there's a constant hunger for new tidbits. |
The thinking is that the regular Iraqi army, the ones ... sitting out there in the desert, would fold pretty quickly. But as you move up the echelons within the Iraqi military, it becomes more difficult to predict exactly what and where things are going to break. |
