You are being a bit selective for someone who allegedly "looks at both sides of the story". Innocent bystanders may prefer to review what google turns up themselves. Here's the list for Iraq Kuwait Hill Knowlton incubators: google.com

Wonder where the rest of the world and ALL the liberals and conservatives of any stripe are on this Amnesty report: The report cites 38 methods of torture used by the Iraqi military, including cutting off people's tongues and ears, shooting them in their limbs, applying electric shocks to their bodies, and raping them. "The Iraqi forces' brutality in Kuwait has shocked many people in the past four months," Amnesty International said, "but such abuses have been the norm for people in Iraq for more than a decade." While welcoming the release of Western nationals, Amnesty International said it fears that the plight of thousands of victims of human rights violations in Kuwait and Iraq might now be forgotten. The organization called on governments throughout the world to appeal to Iraq to stop the human rights violations.
