A Question (or two)

Do you need a super-duper international broadcaster updating its website every minute of every day, with hundreds of correspondents having depth and expertise in numerous conflicts, to report on events in Iraq? Or do you just need a guy watching Iraqi TV?

As for the Poles (whose demotion is currently the centrepiece of the linked BBC article)- I haven't heard reports of them fighting anybody (No offence intended. Bombed yes, fighting, no). Clearly you do not just want peacekeepers for Moqtada al Sadr.
