US newspapers swallow Bush lies

IN recent weeks, mass-market US newspapers have taken to a constant drumbeat asserting that attacks in Iraq are ‘linked’ to al-Qaida.

What these papers fail to mention is that the ‘linkage’ is but the latest lie of the Bush regime that has been swallowed whole by the same media that convinced many Americans that Saddam Hussein was behind 9/11.

The latest articles fail to point out that the people of Iraq are sick and tired of an occupying power that has killed more than 650,000 of their fellow-citizens in order to turn over Iraqi oil to the multinational oil cartel.
