I wonder why you never normally hear about this sort of thing?

IRAQIS SUPPORT RESISTANCE AGAINST FOREIGN OCCUPATION

  • 45% of Iraqis believe attacks on US and British troops are justified
  • Less than 1% believe that foreign forces are responsible for any improvement in security
  • 82% are "strongly opposed" to the foreign occupation.

My only surprise is that 100% of Iraqis don't support attacks and are against occupation. I also believe that the number of Iraqis who support attacks is an underestimation. It was arounf 55% last year according to reliable polls.

BRITISH TERRORISM IN IRAN

Apart from the well-known British terrorism in Iraq, Britain has been caught out waging terrorism in Iran. In news not surprisingly ignored in the West, Iran recently arrested a British agent in connection with terrorist blasts in southern Iran. Additionally, the two SAS personnel arrested recently in Basra and freed by British troops smashing into their prison were probably also involved in terrorist attacks in both southern Iraq and Iran. They were caught red-handed with bomb making gear in their car.

Western terrorism and imperialism has continued for centuries and will likely not end for a long time. It's no wonder people in the Muslim and Third World are fighting back.

MEDIA READS THE SAME GOVERNMENT PROPAGANDA SCRIPT

See the simplistic headline in the UK's The Observer newspaper on 16 October 2005: "Iraqis in their millions defy terror to vote on constitution"

The following was the New York Times' similarly pro-government propaganda story from 3 September 1967 in relation to a sham "demonstration election" organised in Vietnam amidst American terror and killing: "U.S. Encouraged by Vietnam Vote :Officials Cite 83% Turnout Despite Vietcong Terror"

It's the same game; the same American imperialism, wars and killing and the same media lies and propaganda. When will it end?
BUSH ADMINISTRATION CUT FUNDING TO CORPS OF ENGINEERS

No surprise here for those who understand and are not blind to the crimes, lies and mismanagement of the criminal Bush regime: it cut funding to the US Corps of Engineers preventing them from commencing work on plans to extend and reinforce the levees around New Orleans.

This was revealed, not by the media (as far as I am aware) in all its hype over the New Orleans flood, but in a History Channel documentary screened today (Sunday, 16 October) in Sydney, Australia.

The Corps of Engineers already had plans to extend the levees but the Bush administration cutbacks prevented any work from commencing. This is almost too good to be true but no surprise considering the stupid Bush and the war criminals, international terrorists and megalomaniac aggressors that surround him. This can be added to all its other scandals: no action on AL Qaeda before 911; funding cutbacks to military benefits; not signing Kyoto protocol (which affects weather etc)...and so on. The list is too long to list and my memory fails me as I write. I'm sure you can add to this long list of sordid Bush scandals.

UPDATE, 18/10/2005: I guess its all been said before. In case you missed it, see Noam Chomsky's documentation of the Bush regime's utter failure:

Bush funding cuts in 2004 compelled the Army Corps of Engineers to reduce flood-control work sharply, including badly needed strengthening of the levees that protected New Orleans. Bush’s 2005 budget called for another serious reduction — a speciality of Bush-administration timing, much like the proposed sharp cut in security for public transportation right before the London bombings in July 2005.
