Iraq: Not Missing the Big Picture
2005-10-29
by Amir Taheri at Arab News - RTWT

Secondly, Iraq’s democratic parties should send delegations to the US and Europe to help counter the pessimistic analyses peddled by the opponents of liberation. In both the US and Europe, Iraq is depicted as either a quagmire or a country on the verge of civil war. Reporting on Iraq is largely confined to images of the charred remains of a car bomb driven by a suicide-killer. It is important that the Americans and the Europeans hear about the other Iraq from Iraqis themselves.

#3  Amir is on. They need to get in the IO fight if they are ever going to get a message across. I'm suprised that an Arab News would carry it. I'm certain PBS or Wash Post would not.

#2  The problem is those Iraqi folk would be ingnored, excoriated and marginalized by the MSM. Only the MSM manufactured "truth' is correct, the facts be damned.

#1  Amir must get pretty lonely - and I don't mean when he's carried by Townhall or NRO or the NYPost or similar outpost of truth in the avalanche of lies from the MSM, but a story like this posted in Arab News? Lol, that's something akin to spittin' into the wind. Ya got class, Amir.
