What's happening in the middle east?

I don't know what you are trying to say. You are quoting news stories that have already been reported, and saying that they ought to be reported. If you are trying to say that they deserve more press, then that's probably true. I won't argue with you over that, but we have had a year's worth of news happen in the last two weeks. Something has to be cut.

In yesterday's presidential debate, the two presidential candidates didn't talk at all about Iraq, that I can remember anyway. It's not just the "liberal" press moving on to other issues.

Calling the press "liberal" is one of those things that has been repeated by the conservatives for so long, people are starting to believe it to be true without even thinking about it.
