Right-o. Think, though, how different Iraq would have been if the major media had pounded on these points: - no connection between Saddam and 911. Some 62% of Americans STILL THINK there is a connection and some part of that percentage STILL THINK Saddam was involved in the planning of it! - Saddam has never threatened any harm to the USA AND 12 years of sanctions has devastated the country so that it could not harm us. - Iraq has the largest known reserves of easy-to-get oil which is the major reason we are there. - We could be looking at peak oil production worldwide next year. Iraq is a war over the control of oil. If the major media had pounded these points into the public's head, we wouldn't be in Iraq. It's the media with their garbage reporting of the same story over and over again (this passes for news) from the exact same source (they share bureaus now) that makes people stupid. It's sad to see that investigative reporting is all but nonexistent. Why is Hirsch the one to break both My lai and Abu Ghraib? The media has become so lazy and has forgotten its role. We need a new media. Then we'll get a new country. Until then, I vote for India and China to lap us soon.
