Thursday, March 2, 2006 Happy Birthday Mac II. Wow, what a nostalgia trip for me. @ 10:18 PM CST [Link] Star Wars valentines. A little late, but hilarious nonetheless. @ 07:04 AM CST [Link] Tuesday, February 28, 2006 The amazing story of Sandra Laing. Sandra is the black daughter of white parents in.... wait for it... apartheid South Africa, with mommy and daddy in the ultra-conservative Nationalist party no less. @ 06:07 PM CST [Link] Scathing Robert Fisk today. Rumsfeld's latest pronouncements have included a defence of the Pentagon's system of buying favourable news stories in Iraq with bribes - "non-traditional means to provide accurate information" was his fantasy description of this latest attempt to obscure the collapse of the American regime in Baghdad - and an attack on our reporting of the Abu Ghraib tortures. "Consider for a moment the vast quantity of column inches and hours of television devoted to the detainee abuse [sic] at Abu Ghraib. Compare that to the volume of coverage and condemnation associated with, say, the discovery of Saddam Hussein's mass graves, which were filled with hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis." Let's expose this whopping lie. We were exposing Saddam's vile regime, especially his use of gas, as long ago as 1983. I was refused a visa to Iraq by Saddam's satraps for exposing their vile tortures at - Abu Ghraib. And what was Donald Rumsfeld doing? Visiting Baghdad, grovelling before Saddam, to whom he did not mention the murders and mass graves, which he knew about, and pleading with the Beast of Baghdad to reopen the US embassy in Iraq. @ 09:10 AM CST [Link] [Archives] Search entries:
