Finding one US Special Forces incursion to pick apart doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of the war was won in "secret" missions we never saw on TV performed by special forces. While we were watching a ton of troops drive across a sandy landscape, missions we didn't see were winning the war everywhere.

So the question I must ask is why were cameras present for this specific mission? [/QUOTE]I would say the answer can be reasonably deduced. They likely knew the mission was a lower probability of threat. Besides, the other "war winning" missions were very probably quite unsavory things to see -- not good press. As well, weren't those military cameramen? I mean, maybe they *did* film other missions, and simply did not release them. [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]
