Every time I see this puppet on the tube he's got nothing but good news on how things are for the Iraqi people now that we have "liberated" them.
I would really like to see an independent report of how the man-in-the-street is faring now, not lip service propaganda - you'll just have to trust me - we can't show you the videos bullshit we are getting fed by these fascists in power.
Where are the embedded reporters at now? I want to see video and stories of how great things are in Iraq now that we have crowned ourselves king of the oil field.
I suspect the offing of an American soldier everyday is a better indication of how things are going. Bremer reports that most of Iraq is relatively quiet except for a certain area called the Sunni Triangle.
Well, let's get some video cameras out to where YOU say things are going well and see for ourselves. We already know things are not well in the Sunni Triangle or Baghdad.
A bigger test of whether or not the resistance is made up of Saddam Loyalists or infuriated Iraqis who don't care about Saddam but are fighting an aggressor invasion is - if there is resistance after the Hussein family is killed or captured. If resistance continues, what will be the excuse then?
1. I ran into an interesting article yesterday. If was either here
or on whatreallyhappened.com. It was written by I believe a woman who worked for an organization that sent her to Iraq to see how it was going. She interviewed a lot of people. It is a mess. The people they are putting in charge have no experience. For instance, the person hired to design the airport to be more efficient has no airport expeirence. An American wandered in and was looking to do some voluteer work. He was hired to be in charge of the garbage department. He has not experience. The new chief of police is American. His experience was as a manager of a small section of a police station in the states. One offical told her that it looked like the plan was to make the Iraq's so miserable, they'd do anything the US wants. The main aim is total confusion. The Bush people should be in jail in Guantanamo.
It's too bad that none of the corporate media will give us believeable truth. Today's jubilant high-fiving over the killing of Saddam's sons shows that it's unlikely that we'll ever get an objective view of what's going on.
That's too bad. Maybe Edward R. Murrow's "This ... is London" was similar to today's reports from Baghdad, but somehow I doubt it. The U.S. threatens reporters who don't kowtow to them. Back in Murrow's time, journalism was more professional than it is today.
