Fallujah story disconnect

Sunday, November 14th, 2004

The embeds tell the attacker’s story

And that story spells s - u - c - c - e - s - s.

My evaluation is that the military and its embeds are not in fact telling the whole story. Click that photo above for a whole lot more. This is a bloody mess. Bodies are strewn everywhere. The hospitals are full of “propaganda”.

Bloodletting of Fallujah civilians

This is beyond the pale. John Pilger is right — 911, the US elections, and now Fallujah demonstrate a media-driven normaliztion of the unthinkable. Please see medialens.org for extraordinary additional details about the official and corporate-media distortions Pilger cites, which he says serve to make all this unthinkable killing thinkable. Sadly, I must agree with Pilger.
