insurgent attacks

i don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but more iraqi citizens are dying in iraq than american soldiers these days, although it seems the insurgent attacks are growing more frequent. i guess that blows the theory that the attacks are motivated by the american prescence in iraq, or as one blogger postulated, by the so called abuses of abu ghraib. simple fact is: the insurgent attacks are motivated by the desire to kill and maim and nothing more. the reason they are doing it in iraq is because it makes the american media place the blame on our president rather on the insurgents themselves where it rightfully belongs. i am thinking that if the media would stop using the attacks as a platform from which it can spew it's hatred of bush, the attacks would lessen, if not stop all together. i will say it again. george w bush is not the one to blame for the acts of radicals in other countries.
