So what does that mean? The Pentagon lies. Yay.

Did we not know this before?

[Stryke 9]

Wait... who said the Iraqis had any rights?

[Corsair mk. 2]

We just sort of assumed that they do... seeing as how they are people too...

[an0n]

I don't care what the Ameri****s do as long as they make their goddamn mind up.

Either it's okay to kill Iraqis in which case they shoulda been rail-cannon'd from orbit, or it's bad, in which case they should leave the goddamn country.

I guess people are more in favor of lies than truth these days.

And those people are mostly the idiots!

[Rictor]

Right, any who exactly are you reffering to?

I'm with anon on this one. If you've got a handful of UK soldiers saying A, trying to cover their asses, and a whole whack of Iraqis saying the opposite, who's lieing now? I'de go with the Iraqis, 'cause the Coalition has a long and frequently proven track record of lies.

I've never liked BBC, all their news reports have a bias in them, and they tend to 'forget' to put in facts.

Shows that they've learned from FOX

And the Iraqis don't?

[an0n]

No.

They said "We ain't got no WMD's" and, lo and behold, they didn't have any WMD's.

Please, don't even think about comparing FOX to BBC. I think that FOX officially put the "News" in quotes, to reflect their journalistic idealogy.

The BBC on the other hand is one of the least biased news sources available. Though the temptation to become an anti-FOX (like FOX, but with the opposite viewpoint) is always there, they stick to the facts and make sure you get the whole story. You're comapring one of the best with one of the worst.

Coalition Lies

-Jessica Lynch
-Saddam's Capture
-WMD
-Bombing of a civilian target early during the war (debunked by Robert Fisk)

Those are just the ones which I can think of without trying too hard, and also only the ones which were exposed. WHo knows how many countless others 1) I'm forgetting and b)were never found out. But even with those four, is it not reasonable to think that the Coalition will lie whenever necessary to cover their asses and make themselves look good.

[Falcon]

They probably had them and found some way to get rid of them


Fox never lies

My point was that there's like 3 [US-Aligned] people saying he was throwing grenades and about 5 million Iraqi protesters saying he wasn't.

There were also a lot of Iraqis who said Saddam was Da Man™ and was pussy cat once you got to know him

[an0n]

They meant he kept coughing up hair-balls and ****ting on the rug........and murdering Kuwaitis

[DragonClaw]

Like 5 million people had a perfect view of this guy that was supposedly throwing grenades...

You think you can count on protestors actually admitting that their own people were throwing grenades?

And like they interviewed everyone.. pfft. Lies.

[an0n]

Well, I doubt it was as good as the view that the troops had from the sights of their high-powered automatic weapons, but still.......
