Infrastructure and jobs or entertainment programs?

From today's Washington Post:

The Defense Department will pay private U.S. contractors in Iraq up to $300 million over the next three years to produce news stories, entertainment programs and public service advertisements for the Iraqi media in an effort to "engage and inspire" the local population to support U.S. objectives and the Iraqi government.

All I want to say here is that Iraqis do not need entertainment programs to support U.S. objectives and the Iraqi government. They need electricity, clean water and jobs. When these things are provided, they will love the Americans and their government to death.
