But that's just how it seems to me.

We don't know about half of what's gonig on there. I guess everyone is too busy caring about the Michael Jackson trial.

To be honest I don't even think the "general" people even care about Iraq right now. Not from what I've been able to tell anyway. I think the "caring about Iraq" thing had it's peak just prior to the elections (when Iraq was important, of course). Now with them over, I guess people don't want to pay attention much.
And the media has always had it's tricks up it's sleeve, by either telling too much, not telling enough, or exaggerating things. It sucks.
