4. These video clips are from Monday

It makes them no less tragic, but today is that much more violent.

7. It's been posted all over the internet and has been dated today

in every one of them.

11. There are at least a dozen videos of this one incident

Several were marked "June 15", but I went back and saw that there were several marked "June 20" and at least one marked as "June 19". There are also some differences with the upload dates, which makes sense if it took the photographers a day or two to get to a computer.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5i8xKaNivKY">Here is one from the June 15 -marked videos. This is probably the most widely-posted version. I am sure it is the same young woman, but if you are able to point out differences, I'll certainly look at it again. (I wish I could say "I'll be happy to look at it again", but I am anything but happy today.)

I guess this is what's called "the fog of war". Such details will be important to history, but this week in Iran, it hardly matters.

8. That clip and others like it will

be an indictment of war crimes against Iran's present rulers.

Once you start shooting people you have lost. These guys appear to be classless amateurs.


I hope they get what's coming to them.

9. Hey, how come we didn't get such graphics in the Iraq adventure?

Because there were censors everywhere to prevent alarming the US populace?

And why are the rabble-rousing emotional graphics now bruited about? Something definitely stinks here. Production company effort a la Man Who Sold the War?

10. Uhh.... we did. (nt)

17. Show me the white phosphorus Fallujah photos, show me the 4 million

refugees that fell on hard times and had to leave the country story pics, if you please.

MSM coverage of excessive violence and mass suffering of the US invasion and occupation? Didn't happen here. The reporters were carefully managed as were the pics and message.

And just try to show me the legal declaration of war, if you should choose to use that as a justification for news black-out or spin. We were emotionally duped into a military retaliation on the wrong people. And we didn't even get to see the results. In fact, many people in the US didn't even want to know what was being done in their name and with their money. They trusted the government to do the right thing, with no oversight.

A recipe for the disaster that continues in Iraq. Continue on, into Iran? Too bad the the bank is busted, and that the price of oil would skyrocket, or we probably would. Go figure.
