Well its expected that the US media makes the Americans look like heroes even in UTTER-FUCKUPS like this one...

Must be great to live in a fake dream-world

Your theory makes total sense since it seems the Italian secret-agent got killed trying to protect her btw..

Dude, you weren't there either, so it's quite possible you have some of that shit in your own eyes.

Anti-US alarmists like you will take any incident available and twist it and blow it into something it's not. I bet I can guess where you live.

What fucking ever. Pretty fucking hard for a bunch of guards who can care less what someone wrote in some newspaper to tell who is in the car at fifty yards away while the car is speeding at them at 50mph.

Do you honestly think that the average grunt gives a fuck what someone writes in some newspaper in a foreign country? Do you think anyone in Iraq guarding a checkpoint reads the newspapers in Italy? No.

the contrary can also be said when it comes from PRO-US biased people.....

True, why not???

Pro-Us alarmist will do the same : elections....

BTW, who is now running Iraq ....

What about people who reserve judgement until all the facts are known? You know, those who can put their bias aside and wait until they can consider the truth.

You know, the truth? It's that abstract concept that represents what really happened, as opposed to what a pack of dipshit hateful hyenas would have you believe.

agree


:2 cents:

Nothing new, the US has been targeting real journalists since the start of the occupation. They don't want the American people to see what's really going on there. That's why the people stopped the war in Vietnam, they saw the truth on TV every day. If that kid who constantly bases Dan Rather because it's the latest talking point was more than 15 years old, he'd remember Rather was one of the best Vietnam war corespondents, and a major reason people actually knew the truth during that war. Look what's on TV now, war coverage is like a video game being promoted by cheerleaders.

Look at those Al Jazzera reporters who were killed after giving the US army their location, on more than one occasion. One of the editors at CNN just got canned for admitting this in public.

The Liberals are extremely smart. They are quick to figure out these conspiracies as laugh as if the rest of the country is just to stupid to figure it out.

They claim that the republican party is full of dumb idiots that are stupid to pull off the simpliest tasks. Surely these dumb ass republicans cant be that stupid.


One fly in the ointment! Liberals havn't been able to implement one core policy in the last 40 years in the United States. Countries run by liberals have watched as the United States of America led by conservatives have prospered.


If the liberals were that smart, wouldn't they have figured out a way to have some success in modern history?


I think you should realize that no matter how many times you claim to be superior, you time is running out to prove it. Most voters have already given up on you.


Chew on that, and discover how intelligent you have to be to continue to fail.

You really live in a Black and White world...

Pssst: Liberals left a huge surplus for the conservatives to spend...

BTW, what about my " business thread " ... you lost your tongue or you have it Bush's ass .... ???

new sides to the story are starting to pop up :winkwink:

Irony:

Bill Clinton Gets rewarded for cutting military budget to shreds.

Hillary Clinton runs for president while raising money for military families

Spend? Is that what that was? I thought it was more like looting :1orglaugh

Do you guys realize that while jimmy carter was president, the us was sending out aircraft carriers without enough staff to launch and fly all the planes it carried.

Lewinski's boyfriend was on that path until he lost control.

If it smells that fishy, you should get your girlfriend's pussy out from under your nose. As a former US soldier who has manned checkpoints, let me tell you something -- an unmarked car is an unmarked car. What, do you think the convoy was using a bullhorn to announce themselves? Carrying a big sign on top of the lead vehicle saying "herein rides so-and-so"? Of course not. Baghdad is a city of 5 million people, dumbass.

If the US Army had wanted that poor woman dead, she would be dead. Delta would have handled it, and Delta would have taken that woman out without missing. And they would have made sure the rounds they used would go through that piece of meat intelligence officer without slowing down. She would be dead if they were trying to take her out. That's not jingoism talking, that's a fact.

The Italians fucked up. They probably didn't pre-plan the route with the cooperation of US forces, and therefore either thought the roadblock was an insurgent roadblock, or just plain fucked the dog. Either way, the proof that the US wasn't trying to assassinate a woman in a car in Baghdad is the simple fact that she's alive at all.

Not really. The "surplus" was a projection based on decreased defense spending and the largest tax hike in US history, passed in 1994 by the last democratic congress. In addition, congress (which has the main power in budgetary matters as if you didn't know) has been controlled by conservatives since the 1994 mid-term elections, largely as a backlash to the tax hike. So the "surplus" (ha ha ha) not only didn't really exist, what substance it had was not due to either conservative or liberal policies alone -- kind of a gray area in which resided a ghost.

Check your facts before accusing someone else of living in a black and white world.

Why do you even try to talk to directfiesta he is just a troll and the more he can piss you off the better he feels.

Heh heh heh, I don't get pissed off a DF. I like to piss him off, and nothing pisses off a liberal troll more than the truth. :thumbsup

ahahahaha, ask a moron for a link proving the US deliberately shot at this
c unt and the moron provides a link to something entirely different.


well, thats what makes them loser liberals. :1orglaugh

just heard this in the morning, messed up stuff

fuck that, we screwed big time, i hope italy will stay in coalition

Eh, Delta doesn't seem to be able to kill anyone. Osama and Al-Zarqawi are still kicking ass and Saddam was found only thanks to a greedy local man.

all i gotta say is please don't believe everything the media says... from someone who's been out there the media is pretty fucked up if you ask me. I've seen them twist shit around..

You are correct. The surplus was a paper surplus projected over a ten year period...with the assumption that everything would go well over the ten year period...which of course was a foolish assumption to make.

The money that President Bush and the Congress decided to refund to the people was real monies that the Governmnet did not actually have in surplus and with the brief downturn in the economy...9/11...Afghanistan...Iraq...and multiple national disasters...in addition to the "trickle down effect" being BS...we now have hugh federal budgetary deficits...and a new cap on the National Debt. This administration is doing even more damage to the financial well being of the country than President Reagan did when he quadrupled the National Debt during his terms of office.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh how true

So don't believe Sgrena's version either? She was in the car and got wounded. The US army version has already so often proved to be the wrong one during the past two years of war. Lies, lies and more lies. Unfortunately for them Sgrena survived....

That preface alone shows that you're unrealistic.

One thing is troubling me even if Sgrena's account is to be believed -- if the Army wanted Sgrena dead, why didn't they finish her off on the spot? Witnesses? If there were witnesses, then those witnesses would be able to corroborate either her story or the Army's, would they not? And you must remember, if she had information which her benevolent captors warned might cost her her life, why did Al Jazeera not interview her and share this information with the world? Sgrena's version of the story simply does not hang together. Further, it is perfectly fair play to take the view that she would in fact lie to hurt the US cause, as her reporting quite openly proceeds from the viewpoint that she wants the US out of Iraq.

In short, why should I believe a story which is full of holes (pardon the pun) told by someone who is commited to defeating the coalition cause in Iraq?
