Honolulu Advertiser headline prior to "surprise" Pearl Harbor attack:

82nd Soldiers on Iraq

Here, you can see a representative from the pro-war media playing damage control, and here is a great comparison between the soldiers’ Op-Ed, and a recent paper by the Brookings Institute, an increasingly neo-con “think” tank, which thinks hard about how to best convince America to keep sending its children into harms way for dubious reasons.
