No rabbits were hurt in the creation of this rant
I still think that some people here
in the world, that is don't get it.
Because of their lies in the pas, Iraq cannot claim to say the truth and it does not say the truth.
Al Jazeera does not criticize Saddam's gov't comments about Iraq when they lie. (like when they show Tariq Aziz saying that the US has not made any progress in Iraq..)
Al Jazeera does NOT report Iraqi war crimes. Al Jazeera does NOT interview US officials but only lying Iraqi officials. They interviewed a Kurd once, hoping that he would be against the US. Well, he said that war against Saddam is right and that the US is right. (they didn't expect it.. I saw this w/my own eyes)
If you are reading this post, chances are more than 50% that YOUR local nation's TV channels are not admitting that the US is morally right and putting Iraqi lies and US confirmations on the same level of doubt.
The USA is a great country because in the USA, we have the right to choose those who would tell us the truth WITHOUT having us believe it with no basis. "In God We Trust" Trust means that we believe someone without proof. In the USA (a democracy), you cannot automatically trust someone without proof. Only God (a representation of justice IMHO) "says" the truth.
Then why should we trust the tapes you say? Why couldn't they have been fabricated? Well, in such a democracy where there are no criminal reprecussions for standing out against the government, we can say whatever we want. And the more of the same thing that we see, the more we can believe it.
from different reporters
Is it an accident that there are hundreds of embedded reporters on the front lines with coalition troops? No. It is for the world to see that the US does not lie and that Saddam Hussein's regime is brutal, murderous, and oppressive.
The US reported that they did not hit any cruise missiles, but did say that there were artillery sites nearby. Now tell me, those witnesses saw 2 cruise missiles, eh? The projecticle going VERY VERY fast, they could see NOTHING but an EXPLOSION. I am 99% convinced that the Iraqis fired on themselves.
delibaretly
Also, why do you think the US didn't win in the first week? They didn't want to kill any innocent civilians.
