Guys, believe me, I can understand you're hesitation with news stories that support the US war in Iraq.
But from what I've read we have to question the BBC's negative spin on the war every bit as much as a person should question CNN's positive spin. Like most things in life, the truth is in the middle, not at the BBC's door step.

Why do we have to question their reporting (notice i didn't use the word spin)? They are a state sponsored news organization that doesn't earn a dime in advertising revenue, supported by a government that believes in the war and is commited to it. So if they critisize the war and thus thier government and paycheck, they kinda show they have some credibility.
