Hmmmmm...did we read the same report??
Senior members of the government expressed support for the project, and most importantly, dismissed last month's official press release from the government as an attempt by a member of the former administration to sabotage the project. Apparently, the same official responsible for issuing the first press release, reissued the exact same release on September 17, 1998, which was picked up by the local newspaper Amandala, and then published on the Channel 5 television network.
When asked about the former government's negative press release, Minister Fonseca said that it appeared to have been a "misunderstanding," and that in his mind the AHG project enjoyed his full support, and should be encouraged by the government.
When asked then about the former negative press release, Minister Bradley appeared unaware that it had caused so much damage to PRWT, and was also unaware that the same release had been re-issued and published in Amandala and on Channel 5's web site. He likened the re-release of the news as "sabotage" and promised to look into the affair.
So, what the hell are you talking about JIHAD? |
