Im Republican remember..I got a handgun..And how could you be so easily offended by what i wrote??Good ol fashioned debate never hurt anyone less your on the wrong side..Ill let ya know about the French after the G8 summit this week
No hard feelings I hope??
BBC & al-Jazeera = government owned, Fox = privately owned.
And you don't suppose they wouldn't want the world to see what a monster Saddam was? Especially since so many in the region as well as in Europe tried to defended his dictatorship.
Many news services that I watched showed al-Jazeera footage to show their slanted view. This served the purpose of introducing Americans, at least, to the state sponsored anti-American campaign being perpatrated in the Arab world.
Ok, so their footage is slanted and against international law....... so why do we show so much of it?
Anyway a brit soldier is in custody today....... handed his photos of Iraqis being tortured into a high street developer!!!!!!!!!
Jose..I dont mind a good debate and rarely will I ever not answer a question u have so if your gonna edit old posts and throw in questions about WMD's and thread jacking after 5 other things have been posted or in the middle of responding at least let me know about it
..Or just start a new one..Ill answer..Always have.. WMD's or not,I dont see any difference between someone who finances 19 hijackers to fly planes into buildings or a mass murdering dictator who has given $40 miilion to encourage suicide bombings..Do i feel slightly duped by the numbers that were thrown around about them..Sure..But that doesnt mean I didnt think it was justified without em..And how do u politically threadjack a political thread??Am I missing something??Is this the 20 questions one??
Its a start to corrrecting 50 years of ****ty American foriegn policy..The House Of Saud is on notice and responding ever so slightly if only because they realise thier Kingdom is a target..Maybe we'll see some real reform.Iran eventually will crumble with a little help because thats what thier people want..Your witnessing the start of something grand here..Sit back and enjoy..
You can't help yourself can you? got to make it personal. i edited that post about a minute after i put it up...... I'd typed WMOD not WOMD and new you'd jump on it with your normal pedantic eye for detail. if you can't make your point without having a go at personaly, then don't bother....... I really don't care.
As long as no operational information was divulged, our news media can air whatever they wanted. That whole first amendment-thing in our constitution. If American news outlets wanted to air tasteless images, that is their prerogative. They'll of course be subject to public opinion, and the squeamish with itchy remote control fingers. Had there been another Dun Li, and the news media wanted to expose the carnage caused by coalition troops, but there was a government authority tasked with censoring images of dead people, that authority could easily be abused.
No you never said that, but you seemed to imply that the indignity of showing Saddams' victims might offend their relatives. I simply said that with the pro-Saddam/anti-American reporting that propagated regional and European news coverage, the victims families want the fates of their loved ones to be told at the expense of a little indignity.
Honestly I didn't see a whole lot of US media showing our POW's being interrogated or giving statements, just the intial reports soon after they occured, and I personally don't believe they translated enough of the al-Jezeera coverage.
Then again, I'm in England, not the US (like I said) so it's all a little different............
All together now Camp X-ray.
And I know you don't call them POW so it gives you free reign over them........ doesn't make it right.
Personaly I've got no problems with pounding the crap out of an enemy soldier/terrorist. Seems Ok to shoot/burn/detonate 'em a bit of live TV is the least of their worries.
