Two issues or The Spin Cycle If you have been reading the French newspapers you may have skipped some important parts. Misinformation is afflicting many major media outlets in the United States. In Australia they know the war was based upon forged intelligence, they aren't in Iraq right now and they don't care, so there media can afford to be informed, don't believe me, just do a bit reading. Here are the headlines for the same information. American France urges new UN mandate on Iraq reconstruction Australian UK weighs up prospect of UN vote on Iraq force Here are the links for any readers who would like to have a good laugh. Look how nice the French appear to be on MSNBC, if you look at the down under article they have turned back into the same selfish people who insist that "long skinny potato squares" be named after their country.

That loud wopping noise or Out of balance spin cycle Selective reading can cause a loud wopping noise, this caused by an out of balance spin cycle. It is good to set them up sometimes but it makes everybody groan, the loud noise you know. Here is one, take the American headline and add one Australian quote from the French Minster of Defence (doesn't she have a lovely voice) and there you go, loud wopping noise. France urges new UN mandate on Iraq reconstruction <<Yesterday French Defence Minister Michele Alliot-Marie said the question of her country intervening in Iraq "does not arise" at present.>>
