Erratic Reports

RE: “Iraq Announces It Will Reinstate 20,000 Hussein-Era Army Officers

To the Editor:

This article was so erratic that it was hard to pay attention to. It begins by talking about the reinstated army officers, moves to a discussion about the elections, and ends with discussion of Christians being murdered in Mosul. None of these things are tied together in the end and the reader is just left wondering what the heck they just read. Reinstating 20,000 army officers that supported Hussein seems like something that Americans would be or should be interested in, but instead we are given the run-around because perhaps we wouldn’t understand the motives for such a move, but one thing we do understand is the murder of those like the majority of Americans, Christian. Why do most people read the newspaper? To find out things that we do not already know, so why pretend it is anything less than that. Give us full and complete reports that are not peppered with other irrelevant information.
