TV Gear Arrives in Iraq SoA Blog May 17, 2004 Over the last several days all the remaining gear that – with your help - we donated to the Marines two weeks ago for 7 Iraqi owned and operated TV stations has arrived at Camp Blue Diamond – the Marines Division Headquarters in Ar Ramadi, Iraq. Below is an update email from LtCol John Lutkenhouse. You’ll find more photos that he sent from Iraq below, too. While I – like you – am eager to hear these stations are up and running, it’s important to keep in mind that all the gear is going into a war zone. The security situation changes unpredictably and plans change. While the Marines’ intention is to get the stations running ASAP they won’t do so if there is unacceptable risk to the Marines setting the stations up or to the Iraqis who wish to operate them. Thus, I’d expect some delay. There may be even bad news. It’s a war of ideas there as much as an armed conflict. Those fighting against us understand the danger that these stations and media that is free and unintimidated presents to their agenda. One can assume they will resist them at some point. These are my thoughts and expectations. I’m not speaking for the Marines. I hope I am wrong. spiritofamerica.net
