I couldn't keep from thinking how much this dripped of the Euro elite egalitarian viewpoint,,, does any one really think the vast majority was led down a pathway of lies. "Yeah right, all of us americans , we were dupped by GWB and his media machine",,,,, give me a break,,,, tell me another fairy tale.,,
goodluck -- propaganda alert ========= In the wake of the events of 11 September 2001, it now seems clear that the shock of the attacks was exploited in America. ... it was used to engineer a state of emergency ... expose how news was fabricated and made to seem real. ========== The terrorists who struck today have again shown their contempt for the innocent. They showed their fear of progress and their hatred of peace. They are the enemies of the Iraqi people. They are the enemies of every nation that seeks to help the Iraqi people. By their tactics and their targets, these murderers reveal themselves once more as enemies of the civilized world.
All nations of the world face a challenge and a choice. By attempting to spread chaos and fear, terrorists are testing our will. Across the world, they are finding that our will cannot be shaken. We will persevere through every hardship. We will continue this war on terror until the killers are brought to justice. And we will prevail.
goodluck -- propaganda working: -- But they also demonstrate how a coalition of the willing - far-Right officials, neo-con think-tanks, insanely pugilistic media commentators and of course well-paid PR companies - worked together to pull off a sensational piece of intellectual dishonesty. Theirs is a study of modern propaganda. === From the UN -- Security Council denounces ‘terrorist criminal attack’ on UN headquarters in Iraq
Syrian representative Fayssal Mekdad 19 August – Members of the United Nations Security Council today condemned in the strongest terms “the terrorist criminal attack” against UN headquarters in Baghdad, resulting in deaths and injuries, and vowed to further intensify its efforts to help the people of Iraq.
“The United Nations is in Iraq on a mission of peace, and for the reconstruction of the country and to support the Iraqi people. Therefore it is all the more shocking that this attack occurred,” Fayssal Mekdad, the Deputy Permanent Representative of Syria, which holds the Council’s rotating presidency for August, said in a statement following a briefing by Assistant Secretary-General for Political Affairs Danilo Türk. http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=8020&Cr=iraq&Cr1= ========== From the RIGHT WING PRESS: The New Ground Zero What's that about no link between Saddam and terrorism?
Wednesday, August 20, 2003 12:01 a.m. EDT
Yesterday's bombing at the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad is a bloody reminder that the epicenter of the global war on terror is now Iraq. This isn't new, but it's taken on new meaning as increasingly desperate terrorists realize just what's at stake.
Sergio Vieira de Mello, the U.N.'s top official in Iraq, put it well in June when he arrived in Baghdad to take up his post. "I have been sent here," he said, "with a mandate to assist the Iraqi people and those responsible for the administration of this land to achieve . . . freedom, the possibility of managing their own destiny and determining their own future." The U.N. envoy was among those killed yesterday.
Mr. Vieira de Mello's vision of Iraqis running a free Iraq is global terrorism's worst nightmare. And it explains why American defeat in Iraq has become its top terrorist priority. Yesterday's bombing was notable in that it wasn't against U.S. soldiers but against non-American civilians trying to restore normalcy to post-Saddam Iraq. http://www.opinionjournal.com/editorial/feature.html?id=110003911 ======== FROM THE LIBERAL PRESS: "The goal is to deny the American occupation force the ability to pacify Iraq, to prevent the Americans from winning the hearts and minds of the people. If Iraq is in constant chaos, the United States can never move on to the next stage." - LOREN THOMPSON, a military affairs analyst. http://www.nytimes.com/2003/08/20/international/worldspecial/20ASSE.html?th
