>Is Mr Solomon saying the reporters should not have reported what the
government said? It certainly sounds like it. At some point, the
decision was taken to go to war. The decision was taken by NATO. If
to you that means it was taken by the US, then you will have to
explain why the other members of NATO are participating. Once that
decision was taken, of course it had to be reported and explained.
You mean "repeated and justified"

Maybe exaggerations?
Now that I spend more time reading your comments, I realized I did overreact
by calling them "off the wall".
I did skim read it and maybe there lies the problem.
