Thank you Hugh Hewitt!
I know and correspond with many Muslims.
I have broken the flat bread with many Muslims, drank tea, smoked cigarettes, shot the breeze and swapped jokes.

Today there are 65 reporters, anchors, producers, photographers and editors covering Topeka, Kansas.
Since January of 2006, only 181 have covered Iraq.
(For point of reference, the Topeka market area only has 171,000 households.)
A survey of U.S. reporters covering Iraq for major news organizations by Pew Research provides an interesting view of how reporters think of themselves, Iraq and the news of Iraq.
Most revealing is how few reporters there are covering Iraq.

I will be on WTIC, Hartford, CT for the Jim Vicevich show Tuesday morning during the 11:00 AM (Eastern) hour.
We will be discussing the current spate of awful anti-war movies and the real heroes in my documentaries.

Every morning I go to the gym and run on the treadmill.
Every morning I am subjected to at least a dozen commercials for the new anti-war movie 'Lions for Lambs.'
Despite spend several million dollars on advertising and marketing, 'Lions for Lambs' will flop--just like 'Rendition' & and 'Valley of Elah.'
They will flop because the human psyche, especially the American variety, prefers real heroes--like the original hero of the Valley of Elah, a young shepherd named David who killed Goliath then cut off the giant's head.

A show I had a very small part in, 'Band of Bloggers', will debut on the History Channel this Friday, November 9th.
(Check your local listings.)
Brian Leonard of Normandy Films, who brought this project to life, first contacted me in 2005.
Yes, that is how long it takes to develop, pitch, sell, package and deliver a show.

Before I went to Iraq in March, I left this envelope with my business partner and most trusted friend, David Chavarria.
I have left an evelope like this with him before every trip to Iraq.
It contains my will, a living will/advanced directive, last letters and some other detailed instructions.
