A Study In Contrasts

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld said at a DoD operation briefing yesterday:

To get a sense of the stark contrast between the good that coalition forces are doing in Iraq and the tactics that the enemy has used consistently, if one thinks back, they used hospitals, they used mosques, they used schools as weapons locations and fortresses to fight from throughout the time of the invasion. The photo of terrorists using a mosque in Najaf as a base for attacks against our forces is an example of what we're finding. There have been additional attacks taken from mosques in Fallujah, and I believe there have been embedded reporters who have been able to -- as well as combat camera -- able to make some of that available to the American people.

There are two ways, I suppose, one could inform readers of the Geneva Convention stipulation against using places of worship to conduct military attacks. One might be to headline saying that Terrorists Attack Coalition Forces From Mosques. That would be one way to present the information.

Another might be to say: Mosques Targeted in Fallujah. That was the Los Angeles Times headline this morning.

Imagine for a moment the following headline published of April 20, 1993, in the Los Angeles Times or any other major newspaper:

SOCIALIST DEATH SQUAD ATTACKS PLACE OF WORSHIP

One can only imagine it of course because instead of publishing the truth the newspapers and other major media have consistently taken the side of the socialists and other anti-human barbarians at every opportunity.

If the established media had consistently published the truth the Democratic Party leadership and most of their legislative delegations on the state and federal levels would be out of office and in prison. The worst of them would be dead or awaiting execution for their crimes against the citizens and constitution of our republic.

And Bill Clinton would be giving blow-jobs instead of receiving them.

Sometimes one can only wish.
