The Media Are the Enemy Little Green Footballs The New York Times continues its disgraceful full-court press to delegitimize the War on Terror, in a story masquerading as “news” in their international section: <<< Guantanamo Comes to Define U.S. to Muslims. Accounts of abuses at the actual American detention center at Guantanamo Bay, including Newsweek magazine’s now-retracted article on the desecration of the Koran, ricochet around the world, instilling ideas about American power and justice, and sowing distrust of the United States. Even more than the written accounts are the images that flash on television screens throughout the Muslim world: caged men, in orange prison jumpsuits, on their knees. On Al Jazeera and Al Arabiya, two satellite networks, images of the prisoners appear in station promos. For many Muslims, Guantanamo stands as a confirmation of the low regard in which they believe the United States holds them. For many non-Muslims, regardless of their feelings toward the United States, it has emerged as a symbol of American hypocrisy. >>> littlegreenfootballs.com nytimes.com
