The End or The Beginning?

The War Continues

Quote:
The circus lions of the U.S. media faithfully refrained from reporting on the June 9th launch of the largest U.S. military offensive in Iraq since the fall of Baghdad, leaving Americans blissfully unaware that George W. Bush lied about more than the existence of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.

Anti-US Opposition In Iraq And The So Called Roadmap
An Interview with Robert Fisk

Quote:
There were good guys as well as bad guys among the Americans as there always are in armies, but the people who I talked to, the sergeants and captains and so on--most of them acknowledge that something had gone wrong, that this was not going to be good

Bush Wars by Steve Perry

The Bush Lies Marathon, Day 3

Quote:
1) That WMDs went to Syria


2) That everybody fighting occupation forces is a "Saddam supporter" or "Ba'ath remnant"

3) That Iraq was behind the October 2001 anthrax attacks (Ok, that one got exposed pretty quickly, but still...)

4) That cronies and family of Bush aren't personally profiting off the war on Iraq or the war on "terror" (although that's not the main reason for the war, just a little side benefit)

5) That there are links between Venezuelan President Chavez and Al Qaeda.

6) That Bush is seeking a viable Palestinian state.

7) That the U.S. cares about whether Saddam "gassed his own people" beyond propaganda purposes.


8) That the U.S. cares about mass graves beyond propaganda purposes.

9) That Bush was going to get Osama "dead or alive"

10) That Iraqi cooperation with U.N. inspectors could have prevented the war

Really Korgul, you could have saved that Yawn and not post at all man. It really does seem quite rude.

It is interesting reading after all, thru someone elses effort.

In reply to the first article in the first post......

I guess the reporters from "Znet" don't watch CNN, because it's certainly been on there, and reported on the the same:

Quote:
launch of the largest U.S. military offensive in Iraq since the fall of Baghdad
It's called Desert Scorpion.

The "US media circus lions" bit is really indicitive of the caliber of journalism we're dealing with here, not to mention this nugget:

Quote:
leaving Americans blissfully unaware that George W. Bush lied about more than the existence of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.
What does the fact that we're still attacking Baath Party loyalists (even if our news agencies weren't reporting on it, a fact which your source seems to be unaware of) have to do with WMD, and our nation's awareness of the existence/nonexistence thereof?

Man, I really hate these kinda of threads, and I do like to hear opposing viewpoints, but that's one crappy piece of writing.

Thud,

Shhh, do not trash the piece, Club liked it because it bashes the US and the Bush administration. We wouldn't want to burst his bubble.

Yawn is right. Bush continues his lying to the American people.

What else is new?

Edit: for spelling
