.....the war in Iraq, fuck Reuters for improperly using a writer's byline on a story she didn't write. That's like reverse plagiarism, and it's unfair to put her name on something that's derogatory toward Jessica Lynch, who - though I won't consider her a "hero" - deserves a great deal of respect for her efforts and trials in Iraq, something Reuters obviously doesn't think she deserves, which they're too cowardly to admit unless it's under someone else's name, giving the easily-offended masses a scapegoat.
