| Calling the kettle black: Michael Moore didn’t release prisoner abuse footage |
| 2004-06-14 |
| Filmmaker Michael Moore said Friday he wasn’t sure he did the right thing by saving footage of U.S. American soldiers’ cruelty toward Iraqis for his controversial documentary, "Fahrenheit 9/11,’’ instead of releasing the evidence earlier when it might have helped halt such abuse. EFL, the rest is at SFGate.com "The situation is like Vietnam. The conditions in Iraq are just terrible, ’’ Moore said. "The soldiers know they are over there for a bull -- reason... I wonder how he figured that out? If he even did? Moore said he has received more than 1,500 letters from American soldiers expressing opposition to the war and said he is considering compiling the letters into a book. Would they be like Sgt. Mejia or Stephen Funk? |

| #1 Moore also contemplated having a fourth helping of corned beef hash. He decided he would have a fourth helping, provided he could smother it with a quart of gravy. |
