In this article, the author discusses his observations on the pro-Iraqi war stance taken by the newspaper Washington Post. The author states that its editorial pages have expressed an over-the-top pre-emptive enthusiasm. Instead of examining the factual basis for targeting Iraq, the author observes that the newspaper has focused on less relevant news stories. His impression is that the newspaper's news coverage has toughened considerably--beginning to puncture various propaganda claims and to explore contradictions that might better have been examined long ago.
