War

Iranian terrorists have been poring into the United States through both Canada and Mexico over the last 18 months. Several hundreds have and are forming terror cells ready to strike at America's soft underbelly should the US invade Iran, or even bomb their nuclear facilities. Despite the press in full knowledge of this, as well as the government, nothing much is said or done and the borders remain porous. Worse still, the "catch and release" rules are still in effect. Hundreds of middle easterners have been caught and released INTO THE US pending hearings. If they don't show up on the shoddy and necessarily incomplete terrorist watch list, then they are free to move into the house next door to you. Asa "Lying Weasel" Hutchison, the man who may now replace Bernard Keric as Bush's Homeland Security director, has issued orders to border patrol agents not to speak to the press about it. The insanity of this policy has to have a reason, but what? Can it be simply PC politics, not wanting to piss off the Latino vote? Say it ain't so, George. The election is over, and it does not appear as if anything is going to change. That is until the first terror strike is traced back to the border. I'll be damned if I can figure these spineless morons in government and Big Media out...  

Yosseff Bodansky, director of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare, a man truly tapped into US and international intelligence services, is warning of a possible nuclear attack on US soil. Not ten years from now, but in the near future. He believes there is a very good chance that Al Qaeda has obtained one if not several nuclear suitcase bombs from the former Soviet arsenal. So why aren't Dan Rather, Peter Jennings and Brian Williams mentioning it?  

Afghan elections continue to be underplayed in the media, except to call them into question. What! Who would question an election where it could take up to two weeks for some ballot boxes to arrive by donkey? Perfect election or not, Karzai has a 70% approval rating and had no need to cheat...

The US needs to take a Kerry "sensitivity" lesson from Thailand, who shot first and asked no questions later when they killed more than 100 Muslim radicals connected or not connected with recent bombings in southern Thai towns bordering largely Muslim Malaysia. The Thai's don't give a flying fuck about complaints from the Left press; they just do what needs to be done to protect their nation...GW, take note...

So...the US is in the heart of Waziristan, bin Laden country, and there is little talk of bin Laden in the press, (except by Theresa Heinz Kerry's conspiracy theory), when officialdom has long placed him there. The reason is because he is likely in Iran, protected, along with son Saad, by the Iranians... 

The good news on Pakistan is that Musharrif has passed the point of no return, and his life and his presidency depends on a successful war against radical Islam in Pakistan. The bad news is that if he loses and is overthrown by radicals, those radicals will inherit some 50 nuclear warheads and delivery systems...radicals by the way, who will likely be closely allied with bin Laden and company...If the radical Islamists ever gain control of Pakistan, Pakistan instantly becomes the lynchpin to any possible Armageddon...  

Little reported, a 9th, yes 9th Iraqi nuclear scientist was assassinated in late February in Baghdad. Who is killing the scientists, and why? Obviously somebody is very afraid of what they might have to say... October reports of two disassembled buildings thought to be housing sophisticated machinery necessary to nuclear weapons production, have fallen on deaf media ears... The Bush administration reportedly had no idea these facilities existed....double mum's the word...    

...the capture in Iraq of Al Qaeda operative Hassan Ghul, the likely source of the 17 page letter reportedly written by Abu al-Zarqawi to Usama bin Laden, paints a grim picture for Al Qaeda's future in the country. Their last hope of success is to instigate a civil war, which they are attempting now with suicide bombs and rumors of blame. The next 6 months are crucial, as al Qaeda will go all out to prevent a new Iraqi government from taking over...

...lost in the Zarqawi letter, at least in the left press, is that it means the Bush plan backed up with resolute determination is working better than even its most ardent supporters thought.  The plan has brilliantly sucked more Al Qaeda and other radicals into the country to be captured and killed, and clearly has them disillusioned and desperate. Despite Zarqawi's frustration and confession that the Americans are "suffocating" their effort, he added with classic Arab machismo, "...they [American forces] are the biggest cowards that Allah has created."...     

...the bounty for Zarqawi has been raised from $5 million to $10 million. Not good enough in a part of the world where they don't really comprehend money like we do. Make it $10 million dollars and a good milking goat, and Zarqawi gets dumped on the front porch of the Green Zone by sundown...

Did you know…the original Pentagon name for the Iraq War was not Operation Iraq Freedom but Operation Iraqi Liberation? Fortunately someone awake at the switch caught the unfortunate acronym—OIL—in time….    

…the above harkens back to December 7, 1941 when the acronym for the US Navy at Pearl Harbor was CINCUS…sink us…

…bin Laden is likely in Iran. Solid sources have reported him there since at least August 2003. He’s said to be in the guise of an Iranian cleric, with a short beard, and in good health. We’ve known his son Saad has been there for over a year now. Note the elite media and US military still acting like he’s in the border region between Afghanistan and Pakistan… I wouldn’t expect the rhetoric against Iran to heat up until nearer the election…

…interesting to note that following the colossal, lame-brained American failure to capture or kill bin Laden at Tora Bora in 2001, the Christian Science Monitor reported from the ground, based on interviews with bin Laden’s own cook and others from the Tora Bora area, that although most of the 1,000 plus Al Qaeda escaped to the border region near Pakistan, a smaller group led by bin Laden broke off and headed in the direction of Iran…

…the most bizarre thing to me about the capture of Saddam is the reaction of the left and how concerned they are about the “humiliation” Saddam “suffered” by having his homeless mug put on television…are these people some special, yet to be medically classified kind of INSANE?

…has the far left suffered Frog in the Pot Syndrome, FPS, as the wacko dial inside their collective skulls has been slowly turned up over time so that they never noticed it happening? A question for our times deserving of serious inquiry…

…try this on for “humiliation” left wing wackos…in the name of poetic justice I suggest Saddam be put to death in any one of the worst ways he had others put to death.  Two examples: 1) Raped repeatedly and put feet first—slowly—through Uday’s notorious wood chipper; 2) Raped repeatedly and forced to drink gasoline, shot in the stomach and lit on fire to burn from the inside out (as people stand around laughing). Oh I know it will never happen, but a man can dream can’t he?

…liberal democrat Charles Rangel, clearly one of  the most persistently ridiculous partisans in Congress, called the killing of Uday and Qusay Hussain “illegal assassinations”… Never mind that they chose their own deaths, refusing surrender with gunfire and wounding three American soldiers at the outset…

...a photo of the Bush twin daughters was found on a wall in Uday Hussain’s opulent digs, no doubt a source for sick rape-murder fantasy…also found was a massive porn collection, a stash of heroin, a bar full of expensive booze, boxes of Cuban cigars, an array of gold plated weaponry, and the piece de resistance—piles of human excrement left by his adoring citizenry…in fact looters enjoyed the triumphant moving of their bowels in Hussain palaces and Baath party buildings all over the country…nothing says ‘thanks for the memories’ like a steaming pile of shit…

Uday Love Stories…after having his thugs pull women off the street for him to rape, after satisfying himself through violent sex, after assuaging his post-orgasmic depression by beheading and further dismembering their bodies, good old Uday would often have these women put into sacks and delivered to the doorsteps of the women’s families.  But it gets worse… His ex bodyguard reported one incident where Uday repeatedly raped and beat a woman for several days, several days during which he starved his vicious attack dogs. When he was done with her the woman was slathered up with honey and thrown to those dogs, who literally ate her alive… I would venture a wild guess that Mr. Rangel, if it had been his daughter, would not be squawking about “illegal assassinations…”

Babes on Ice…doctors interviewed in Baghdad report that they were ordered by Saddam to put the bodies of dead babies in cold storage to be saved up for sanctions protest marches. When enough dead babies were gathered to make a good show, a march was organized, complete with tiny caskets, wailing parents and television coverage decrying the horror of UN sanctions…meanwhile, Saddam was building palaces and stashing away billions in gold and cash…

…”stretched thin” is a common refrain heard about the US military. So tell me then, why on earth do we need 100,000 troops stationed between England, Germany and Italy? With the Cold War over, this sounds like another case of Old Think bureaucratic paralysis…

…methinks a New Think multi-national, multi-religious division or two of elite warriors trained to handle Middle East style terrorist warfare with 1 in 10 fluent in Arabic would go a long way in winning the long term war on terrorism and completing the Middle East makeover…this could be internationally funded and otherwise supported—who the hell is against exterminating terrorists—so as to greatly reduce this inane notion of US imperialism, a notion which only empowers the terrorists… 

…cultural imperialism is another matter, but even this is a misnomer, as the demand for US culture, such as it is, is still overwhelming…all part of the unfortunate yet necessary evolution of the species…

…an Egyptian newspaper recently ran an article describing Americans as cannibals, that US soldiers were actually slaughtering and eating Iraqi citizens in a crazed bloodbath the likes of which the world has never seen… And this from a country the US gives 2 billion dollars in aid to annually…money perhaps better spent on booze, bombs and cheap hookers… I say the Americans should threaten to drop a MOAB on the Great Pyramid if they persist in inciting this insanity…

…a persistent rumor on the Arab street right up to his capture, was that the US paid off Saddam not to fight, and gave him safe harbor on a secret island somewhere…then again, many also believe that Israeli’s are fine diners of Palestinian babies….apparently these culinary challenged philistines don’t realize how irresistibly succulent their young really are…bon appetite Tel Aviv!…

…before the war, the left claimed civilian deaths in Iraq could easily reach 500,000…the actual number is between 6 and 8,000. Perhaps they were projecting Saddam’s mass grave totals onto the US military…as for Iraqi military deaths, estimates range from 10,000 to 60,000, with the US not commenting except to say they don’t keep track…at least not officially. Body counts have no place in the world’s first politically correct war and besides, they lied their asses off in the first Gulf War, in fact trumpeted them at 100,000.  The Pentagon later, and much more quietly, revised the number down to 10,000…

…warm on the WMD trail…retired lead inspector David Kay reports finding long range missiles rigged specifically to carry sarin gas…the gas has to be mixed in flight so the technology is sarin specific…in addition, reams of information on WMD programs have been uncovered, and they were working on a Rycin bomb right up until the invasion...chemical weapons precursors by the truckload…what, not being widely reported?

…perhaps the most striking and important phenomenon to emerge from the war in Iraq has not been the mass uprising of the Arab Street that never happened, but the tsunami of self-flagellation that has swept over the Middle East concerning the pathetic failure the Arab media to report reality.  Those images of Saddam’s statue being toppled in Paradise Square and tanks rolling through Baghdad actually threw the Arab Street into shock. I ask you, how on earth could they be shocked by such a blatantly obvious inevitability?   The obvious answer is the corrosive, ideologically driven Arab media, which actually believed it’s own skewed up anti-American worldview, and funneled it down to said Street. They believed the truckloads of camel shit Al Jazeera heaped on them, wrote about it as fact while disbelieving the coverage coming from somewhat more reliable Western sources. Of course they had it is ass backwards, and when the force of truth finally hit them and their worldview was shaken to its core, it created a chasm of hope for a more peaceful future. The people now know they were lied to, and an angry backlash has hit Al Jazeera and the Arab media in general. The Arab Street is now more open to trusting Western news sources, and much more skeptical of their own. There is a window of opportunity here, and it is vital that we begin to fill this opening with pro-Western Middle East media outlets, though precious little has been done thus far… Without an effective media war to support our efforts towards political stability and economic opportunity on the ground, the long term War on Terror will be much longer in the winning…         

Psy-Ops in stereo…400 watt speakers mounted on armored vehicles proved too much for the tiny radical minds of the Fedayeen fighters… approaching Fedayeen strongholds US soldiers speaking Arabic launched verbal assaults, calling them homos for Allah and cowards of Islam and telling them their 72 virgins were AIDS ridden…this proved too much for the rabid Arab mind to handle, so they stormed from their cover cursing and shooting wildly at the loudspeakers. Their shouts were short lived however, cut off in mid-curse as US troops mowed them down…

…more than 100 million persons were killed in warfare during the 20^th century, with 62 million of them civilians…

Culture

The Pope has personally conducted at least 3 exorcisms since 1985, the latest of which involved a possessed young girl who spat up transistor radio parts…exorcisms worldwide are on the rise…no word on anyone at the Vatican assembling the parts into a working radio to determine if Satan was indeed hosting a right wing talk show…

…Tim Robbins, the brilliant left wing head case, has written a new play: Embedded. It’s a rip on embedded reporters, their supposed network and military puppet masters, the war, and of course, Bush. It’s a satire, naturally, which essentially means they can lie all they want in the name of humor. They have indeed admitted as much, wrapping themselves in the banner of satire. The problem is that satire, in order to be truly telling and funny, needs to have a significant basis in truth. The best laughs in Mr. Robbins’ play then, and reportedly there are many, come from those who believe the lies. “Satire” in this case, quite transparently, is propaganda. The irony then is that Mr. Robbins, in order to smear those he sees as propagandists, has himself become one…        

…I love this little ditty from the pen of A. Coulter from last November…

“The U.S. military has had considerably more success in turning Iraq around than liberals have had in turning the ghettos around with their 40-year "War on Poverty." So far, fewer troops have been killed by hostile fire since the end of major combat in Iraq than civilians were murdered in Washington, D.C., last year (239 deaths in Iraq compared to 262 murders in D.C.). How many years has it been since we declared the end of major U.S. combat operations against Marion Barry's regime? How long before we just give up and pull out of that hellish quagmire known as Washington, D.C.?” 

…there were about 12,000 murders last year in America. In all the years the US will be in Iraq, not even ¼ of that number will be murdered…as for innocent Iraqi’s killed by accident, estimates range from 6 to 8,000…

…America, murder capital of the world, right? Wrong. Not even the murder capital of North America. Mexico holds the top spot, at roughly 13,500 per year, compared to the US’s 12,500. As far as the world goes, India is the maharaja of murder at 37,000 per annum, with Russia second at 28,000. The US ranks sixth…As far as per capita murders, the US, the great bastion of violence, ranks a paltry 23^rd.  Columbia es numero uno…

…more than 100 Americans each and everyday die violently in car accidents…where’s the human cry for us to pull out of Detroit…?

…the US ranks 9^th  in rapes per capita, right in between the Dominican Republic and Iceland. South Africa, with its legions of rocket scientists who believe having sex with virgins cures AIDS, tops the list. The US leads the league in total rapes with South Africa second, followed by those gentle loving Canadians, which fill in the #3 hole…

…don’t get too panicked about this year’s flu season…in 1918 more than 500,000 Americans died of flu, while 20 million died worldwide…

…Europe hates America but loves Michael Jackson, all the more so after his arrest for child molestation…please remind me then, why do we give a free flying radical about what Europe thinks about the Iraq war? Their thinking is spoiled, elitist and generally retarded. They thought Hitler was a reasonable fellow right up until he took Poland…

…an Iraqi mother recently named her new baby boy George Bush, “…for the man that liberated our country”… She went on to say that had she had twins, the second boy would have been named Tony Blair…when Saddam was captured another child was duly dubbed, Bremer. A physics professor I know says the US probably paid them to do it…

…speaking of names…Hillary was ranked as the 192^nd most popular girl name in America before Mrs. Clinton became first lady. The name fell in popularity steadily after that, falling off the top 1,000 list in a mere nine months. Compare that to the name Adolph, which took more than three times as long to fall off the list after WWII…

…toilet ringer…former San Antonio Spur David Robinson’s wife demanded that the 7-footer have a urinal installed in the master bathroom of their new custom built home, such is Mr. Robinson’s difficulty in aiming into a standard toilet from such a height…this an Artichoke exclusive straight from an unnamed high ranking official within the plumbing community…   

…a five year-old New Jersey boy was expelled from kindergarten for shooting with his finger. Reason: School policy of zero gun tolerance. When they say zero gun tolerance to a five year old, they mean it! And the best part…a New Jersey Appeals court upheld a lower court decision backing the school! Bang! bang! sanity, yer dead!  Liberally correct America is a dead culture walking…

…new energy drink out called PimpJuice…   “Because it’s real sweet and the ladies like to swallow it", says its rapper spokesman…

…Americans are fat and unhealthy because of mental torpor concerning their physicality…at the same time Americans who do not suffer this malady are the healthiest, largest, strongest and most agile on the planet…who ever thought that a guy like Dat Nguyen, who is of 100% Vietnamese heritage, would one day be playing linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys…? Must be something in the burgers…

…ever brilliant Animal Rights activists in a great and noble humane act, freed 10,000 minks from a fur farm… 10,000 minks so happy to be free they immediately set about hunting down and killing several hundred neighborhood puppies and housecats…

…in a related act of brilliance, eco terrorists in San Diego burned dozens of SUV’s at a dealership, the conflagration releasing more polluting toxins in the air in a few hours than 1,000 SUV’s could in 10 years of driving…the following month, SUV sales spiked higher…

…and if you think Liberals in America are crazy…in New Zealand liberals passed a law—an actual real live law—taxing animal flatulence. The Fart Tax. This is not a joke, even though it is.  I can hear the pub exchange now…“What do you do?” I work for the government. “In what capacity?” I measure sheep emissions. “Say what?” You see old man, there is entirely too much farting going on this country, and it’s a major contributor to global warming. By taxing sheep farts, we hope to change the behavior, thus reducing the amount of emissions in the air, thereby cooling the planet and saving the children. “I see. Well, for your own children’s sake, I hope you’re not the type who brings his work home with him!”

Geo/Politics

...good old Sandy Berger, stuffing top secret documents down his pants to cover he and Clinton's fat dimpled asses concerning the multiple bumbling and bungling in not getting bin Laden when they had the chances...don't let the spinners fool you: though there are copies, not all the copies are the same, and the ones Berger lifted and the ones he destroyed had hand written notes on them, notes Berger and Clinton didn't want to get out... Berger should be prosecuted, but the media will let him off the hook, as will the cowardly Republicans. Had Condoleeza Rice been caught doing the same thing, all hell would have broken loose in the press and she would have fried... 

...speaking of Bill Clinton’s penis…”little Willy” is described in Paula Jones’ deposition as the size of a bent roll of quarters…have you looked at a quarter lately? This unfortunate underdevelopment and Clinton’s long established penchant for whipping it out and thrusting it unbidden upon the unsuspecting, poses some very interesting psychological questions pertaining to sex, power and his presidency...

Did you know…that the entire Clinton White House military staff held a meeting to seriously discuss resigning en masse, such was their disgust with the unethical, incompetent and dangerous way the man and his wife ran things behind White House doors?  Did you also know that among the list of reasons was Clinton's refusal to answer repeated emergency calls from national security advisor Sandy Berger when they had Usama bin Laden directly spotted and targeted for a missile strike? For more than an hour Clinton remained locked in a White House shag-room refusing to accept Berger's repeated attempts to get the president on the line. Without presidential order Berger could not order the strike on bin Laden. When Clinton finally found himself available for the call, he couldn't make a decision and the window of opportunity closed. Bin Laden had escaped. Berger was livid. The burning question: what the hell was the president of the United States doing in that room that was more important than responding to repeated urgent calls from his Defense Secretary? ? I'll give you one guess. So tell me again liberals, why didn't Clinton's extracurricular sex life matter? Not only did it matter, it may well have led to the deaths of 3,000 people on 9-11, (along with a disgusting track record of other Clinton failures to deal with bin Laden.) So shove that up your ass-pipe and smoke it... SOURCE: Lt. Colonel Robert Patterson, military aid to president Clinton from 1996-1998, and keeper of the nuclear "football".   Patterson is the author of "Dereliction of Duty: The Eyewitness Account of How Bill Clinton Endangered America's Long Term National Security".   

…there is confirmation that Saddam paid a $10 million down payment to North Korea for an advanced, long range “No Dong” missile system that was never delivered because of the war…Axis of Evil, anyone?

…so what did Kim Jong Il spend the free $10 million smackers on? Was it A) A few bonus plane loads of buxom Russian hookers and French brandy; B) Yet another “lifelike” statue of himself with long legs and bulging loins; C) Food for the starving masses; D) Plutonium enemas for political dissidents; E) A one week supply of LA Looks hairspray. Answer: All of the above, except for C…   

…it troubles me that the FAA, the airlines and the Bush administration refuses to spend a paltry $10 billion dollars to equip the airlines with missile defenses…what do you suppose the ripple cost to the economy of just one airliner blown from the sky with a Stinger missile would be? Two airliners? Three? Given the amount of money pissed away on nothing every year I find it unconscionable that such defense systems are not approved and installed, post haste…what, Halliburton doesn’t sell them? (Just threw that in for my legions of liberal fans…)…  

…just what kind of Homeland “Security” allows millions of people a year to cross the border illegally with no real intent to stop them? Answer? A Homeland Security more concerned with the politics of power and a reelection dependent on the Mexican vote than in homeland security…

…“We were told…” the new Liberal refrain. We were told this was about WMD and now it’s about this and that. What are you people, little children “being told” with no fucking minds of your own? Grow up Chris Mathews, Ted Kennedy and the rest of you whining Quislings. You are playing dumb to advance your own agenda. Really dumb. You were told a lot of things, and now you choose to ignore all but one, the one you think will give you political traction…not working, is it? 

…OK fine, WMD was the main selling point, but it was hardly the only reason given.  As pointed out by Solomon Bell in Saddam’s Secret before the war began, the real driving force behind the effort was the second phase of the overall War on Terror, to dismantle the Baathist regime and their terrorist training centers at Salman Pak and near the northern border with Iran.  Next to stand up a free Iraq as both warning and example to the rest of the nutters in the Middle East, to establish a base of operations right smack in the middle of the Terror Belt, and to begin the great unbuckling…    

…thank you Mr. Qaddaffi for being the first to voluntarily unbuckle…

…the Left in America wrings its hands over why the Arabs hate us. They think it is because we are 100% wrong and that we are somehow causing this hatred ourselves through our policies. Is it our policies, or is it the Arab misperception of our policies, a misperception purposely fomented by the Arab media? Of course it is more, far more, the latter. The policies are in many instances far from perfect, but they hardly warrant mass acts of terrorism against innocent civilians. So why does the Left, if they really want to know the reasons why they hate us, look at the most obvious reasons, which is Arab-Arab oppression and brainwashing by the Arab media against the US and Israel? Answer: Because they don’t want to. As long as the Right is in power in this country, the Left is more than happy to have us hated, and to have the finger pointing at our policies, which is pointing at the president they hate…  

 Media

yet another Liberal media case...CBS News ran 30 stories on Joe Wilson's claim that Iraq did not seek uranium from Niger and Bush lied about it in the State of the Union Address. Since the 9/11 Commission and the Butler Report have proven that it was Wilson who lied, and Iraq did indeed seek uranium from Niger, CBS has run exactly ZERO stories. Your Mr. Rather, are a disgrace. 

Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 911 was robustly championed by the French and the Euro Left at the Cannes Film Festival. That ought to tell you something. What ought to tell you all you need to know, was the two big thumbs up given to the film by none other than--drumroll please--the Hezbollah! Yes folks it's true, one of the world's premier terrorists organizations is out cheerleading for Michael Moore. Bravo Michael, with the Hezbollah in your corner, you're right up there with Jacques Chirac as one of the great useful idiots of the terror masters.     

The dominant Media Left is now actively creating the news and disseminating political propaganda, evidenced lately by the 'controversy' about a Bush ad showing images of 9-11. The persons appearing repeatedly on TV to complain are supported by Theresa Heinz Kerry and were given obvious talking points. 9-11 families supporting Bush and the ads and upset about the drummed up controversy, were not given air time....As for 60 Minutes and Richard Clarke, a Richard Clarke who directly contradicts his past testimony on Bush and terrorism with his current testimony, well, he's nothing more than a political mercenary and CBS knows it full well...  All this propaganda is aimed at the mushy middle, the dumbed down soccer mom suburbanites, and ethnic sheep-like urbanites....   

…a Steve Hayes cover story in the Weekly Standard titled, “Case Closed” examines a confirmed authentic 50-point memo sent from the DOD to the Senate Intelligence Committee examining Saddam’s links to Al Qaeda…The information is so persuasive only willfully blind ideologues and liars would deny it outright…enter Richard Clarke...

Hayes has a book out on the subject, called The Connection...

…enter Newsweek, which did its best but managed only to make itself look silly trying to discredit the Hayes story…for an intriguing theory and a lot more insight, see Solomon Bell’s “Quagmire of Spin: Saddam’s Links to Al Qaeda”…

…France’s Le Monde, reported that the reason the US was able to storm Baghdad so easily was that Saddam's Fedayeen had so much compassion for the population that they stopped fighting." …yet another mind numbingly inane example of media bias from the Euro left…  

Did you know…a Manhattan district court judge recently ruled, to the tune of $104 million dollars, that Usama bin Laden AND Saddam Hussein BOTH played a material role in the attacks of 9-11? Hmm…I wonder why Big Media hasn’t bothered to mention that one…   

…cable news…stop the incessant recycled video-clips!! Listen you unimaginative, lazy, cheap-ass entozoons, we would rather watch the talking head talk than be forced to view the inside of Saddam’s mouth for the 3,000^th fucking time! And the same goes for the same Al Qaeda training clips we’ve seen 15,000 fucking times, trembling Mad Cows and every other clip you repeat ad infinitum… What is wrong with you people?       

…the ever objective CBS News, on the night of US Forces killing 54 Saddam Fedayeen forces who attacked a convoy at Samara, barely mentioned it before going into negative detail on previous days’ coalition losses and presenting a miserably bleak future… One sentence on the biggest military success since the post war began, followed by three minutes of the Sky is Falling…nope, no liberal bias in the media, no way… But this is more than just a natural and perhaps forgivable bias, it’s an astounding unprofessionalism, otherwise known as propaganda…

…wait! It’s a Fox News Alert! Is it Iraq? My God what’s happened?! Oh no, its not Iraq! It’s New York! Not again! What, tell us! Oh—the Rosie trial is over.  Sorry. No damages were awarded though, thank God she’s safe… Hey news weasels! Ever think you might be developing a “Cry Wolf Syndrome” by dropping an “Alert” on us every five seconds with all your crap stories? Michael Freak-Face Jackson is not an ALERT! Pretty soon you’ll have to strap a suicide vest to Greta Van Susteren and threaten to blow up the On the Record set to get our attention…not a bad idea actually…

…one more insufferable session with Greta and unindicted war criminal Henry Kissinger and she should get the Dan Rather Award for “Journalistic Excellence in Sucking the Ass of a Megalomaniac”…    

…does anyone really believe that HBO’s Bill Mahr is anything but an angry left wing ideologue? 

…Scott Ritter’s prediction of a sure victory by Iraq over coalition forces came as he again faced charges for attempting to lure a 13-year old girl for sex over the Internet.  And still CNN puts his fat head up on the screen to get his expert advice. OK fine, CNN is OK with his sexual kinks, but how on earth can they continue to trot him out as an expert when he was so utterly blind and stupid enough to predict an Iraqi victory? The man has lost ALL credibility, and CNN is well on its way…

…the BBC has been banned from Israel, Sharon calling their reporting akin to Nazi propaganda…some BBC reporters themselves have harshly criticized their employer for it’s propagandizing of the war in Iraq…

…Afghanistan was no different, as BBC World was very fond of showing pictures of dead or wounded children with a waving American flag as background…

...a British investigation found that the BBC lied and then covered up its liars in certain Iraq war reports...one lie, that Blair "sexed up" reports on Iraq's weapons, led to the suicide of weapons expert David Kelly whom the BBC falsely sited as its source. After the suicide the BBC blamed the Blair government. The Hutton investigation cleared Blair and condemned the BBC, forcing the apologetic resignation of BBC Chairman Gavyn Davies... 

…French journalist and author Alain Hertoghe was fired as deputy editor of La Croix for his new book, La Guerre à Outrances," subtitled "How the Press Disinformed us on Iraq", which is highly critical of the French’s horribly biased and inaccurate reporting of the Iraq War…he said the coverage was so negative against the coalition war effort that it was “impossible to understand how the Americans won.”

 …much the same though less extreme can be said for Big Media coverage in America, which save for Fox News and the few other right leaning news outlets, got just about everything about the war woefully wrong. This takes the issue well beyond simple media bias and into willful incompetence and propaganda on a wide scale…

…unbiased truth and integrity in Big Media, if it ever existed, is dead. Death by suicide.
