The corporo-media is asserting 'al qaeda' shit in the U.S. occupation of Iraq. |
|
*sigh*
The corporo-media fails, persistently, to report the fact that Iraqis are the majority of 'insurgents' against U.S. occupation. The corporo-media persistently FAILS to report the billions being spent on a war without legitimate cause or end while we are hurting, unecessarily, at home. The corporo-media is a fucking failure. It's worse. The corporo-media is an enemy to our democratic health.
I simply can not express how sick I am of this nightmare.

1. They also play on confusion |

What the U.S. is calling "al Qaeda in Iraq" is not the same as the al Qaeda in Iraq.
It's a group of Iraqi insurgents that calls itself (or, more likely, is called) "al Qaeda in Iraq." This conveys the bogus impression that al Qaeda is a vast global network.
Someone is cleverly capitalizing on the al Qaeda "brand." It's not like Osama can sue them or anything. After all, the name isn't copyrighted. And besides, he's dead.

2. He's dead and that network called "al qaeda" is of U.S. origin. |

The only ones paying for all the blowback from U.S. corporacrat-backed crap in the M.E., Africa and Asian territories in addition to the recent global blowback to come,...is us, the common folks who had not one fucking thing to do with the corporacrats' aggression.
When profit rather than basic legal and moral human principle drives a nation, there is no democracy. There is just another jungle, another tyranny, another abject failure.
I don't want to pay,...I don't want the 95% PLUS of people like me to pay for the wars waged by the richest assholes on earth. Why can't THEY PAY?
