Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Thus the whole country was broken into many shreds and patches of sovereignty.
As most of the population suffers through life, barely surviving, disappointed and confused day after day, hopeless, wondering what happened to their strong and beautiful country, it is in the media's power to restore, if not some of our quality of life, at least a bit of our peace of mind.
This country is undergoing great changes for the better.
First of all we have to recognize that despite all the problems - and in some cases failures - that this regime has been much more successful, much more resilient, than people had anticipated.
The nation is trying to catch up with a rapidly changing world.
The Bush-Cheney administration had betrayed some basic American values. So there was hunger for change.
With the situation now, people might be intrigued to see how a country coped with war all those years ago.
Many Americans, we know, are horrified by the posture of their government but seem to be helpless.
Much has changed since the end of the Cold War that augurs well for the survival of our nation.
We must remember that the people for whom this change represents a first taste of freedom and a new and brighter future did not allow their resolution to falter, no matter how great the suffering by which they bought this independence.
