CNN's Islamist Sniper report

There has been much said this week on 'blogs and in the MSM (Fox News Watch, Reliable Sources, etc.) regarding CNN's report on Jihadi snipers killing U.S. Soldiers.

As biased as I believe Michael Ware is in his reporting for CNN, this is one report that I think CNN was correct to air. I'll go further and state that as a military/insurgent tactic, this is preferable to suicide and IED bombings targeting Iraqis standing in line for jobs or merely picking through trash for rags.

We are at war, something that those of us who understand that repeatedly attempt to convey; we should expect the enemy to target our soldiers and Marines in uniform on the battlefield. We certainly have our snipers.

CNN's report can only prompt the Army to expedite whatever measures they are taking to counter this threat.

While I do believe that for some reason the U.S. public is chickenshit and weak-willed in this war, hiding the truth from them is not the answer.
