Open Trackback Weekend #8

I'm going down to the 'lake' for the holiday weekend for some much needed R&R (fishing and drinking beer!). Please feel free to post and link for the entire extended weekend. If posts do not 'show-up' on the main page (I usually have to manually post the trackbacks) then I will take care of that when I get back either Monday or Tuesday.

More Reuters Hypocrisy

Yesterday, Reuters published a damning article on exonerated U.S. Marine Cpl. Josh Belile. The 'writer' used terms like; obscenity-laced and cheering crowd of fellow troops in Iraq making light of killing Iraqis to describe the song,"Hadji Girl".

Today, they are literally singing the praises of Aki Nawaz, a muslim musician that pens songs glorifying 'suicide bombers'.

Reuters' Opening Paragraphs:

Muslim musician in Britain faces album controversy


A Muslim musician living in Britain said on Wednesday that two directors at his record label had threatened to resign if he released a new album describing suicide bombers and the West's immorality.

The threat means Aki Nawaz, who was born in Pakistan but moved to Britain aged three, would have to distribute "All is War (The Benefits of G-Had)" independently, causing delays of around two weeks.

"It won't get released on July 17th because of the other directors. I have to move it back two weeks," he told Reuters.


Well, whoa is me... Poor thing. I'm sure the world can wait.

Here's an excerpt from one of his 'songs' titled, "Cookbook DIY":

"I'm strapped up cross my chest bomb belt attached/Deeply satisfied with the plan I hatched."

Nice huh?

Murtha Indictment?

A criminal defense attorney for a Marine under investigation in the Haditha killings says he will call a senior Democratic congressman as a trial witness, if his client is charged, to find out who told the lawmaker that U.S. troops are guilty of cold-blooded murder.

A spokesman for Mr. Murtha did not return a message yesterday seeking comment.
Washington Times

Surprising? Not really.

I decided to take matters into my own hand by editing wikipedia with the truth as we know it...
The Haditha killings (also called the Haditha massacre or the Haditha incident) is likely a false allegation against the US military by leftist news organizations which by now everyone agrees advocates anti-military and anti-war articles/proproganda daily. This is an on-going investigation and information is incomplete. A full, complete authorized investigation is forth coming. Until then, this wiki is unfinished and biased.

US "Occupation" of Iraq

I don't normally read the Contra-Costa Times, but this weekend I happened to pick one up. It featured an article by Robert Conger titled "U.S. must end occupaton to truly free Iraq," which appears to be nothing more than a poorly thought out argument against our forces. The article starts off discussing the shortcomings of military investigations, particularly in regards to the "apparent massacre in Haditha."
Just as investigations carried out by police on their own have ensured the continuing travesty of police brutality, the "investigation" of military excesses, being carried out only by the military itself, has ensured the continuing travesty of American military atrocities
Herein lies the truth about how many feel about our military. Despite the fact that "over 99.9%+ of our folks have acted by the rules," they are still portrayed as murderers. This will be a theme the author does not give up on.
The military and the administration freely use the term's "terrorists" and "insurgents" to apply to anyone in Iraq who resists the American occupation.
By the way, I support an American "occupation" of Darfur, which, I presume by his statements, Mr. Conger does not.
If America were invaded and occupied by foreign troops, I doubt very much that any American would regard any act of resistance as an act of "terrorism," and those who resisted would not be dismissed as "insurgents" or "anti-american." We regard such persons patriots.
Aside from his support for the insurgency (but don't question his patriotism), the author is also being horribly misleading. If America were occupied, I would still consider an American who stuffs a backpack full of explosives, nails, and ball bearings, then detonates it in the middle of a crowded shopping mall a "terrorist." I would also consider an American group who kidnapped and murdered 50 American children a group of "terrorists," though Conger would call them "patriots."
We need to assist Iraq to regain stability, if possible. But this continual assault on Iraqis themselves is not the way to do it. We must withdraw from Iraq and invite international forces to come into Iraq, under the auspices of the United Nations, forces that the Iraqi populace would find acceptable.
The author extends the unconfirmed actions of .018% of our military to the rest of our brave men and women. Most of our soldiers are there building bridges and schools, providing security, and doing a wonderful job to help Iraq build a democracy. These are laudable goals, which I support, but Conger does not. But don't you dare question his patriotism.

Furthermore, is Mr. Conger serious about the United Nations? Whose "acceptable" forces continually rape women, trade aid supplies for sex with underage girls, and helped to enrich Saddam Hussein to the detriment of the Iraqi people? This absurd proposal seems to fit into the rest of his analysis.

Opposing a war on reasonable grounds is acceptable. Dissent is patriotic. But this type of slander, to accuse the vast majority of our military of being brutal murderes, while simultaneously supporting those who seek to kill them and Iraqi civilians is neither; it is disgusting, unpatriotic, and dishonest. God bless our troops.

It has missed its target launch date and won't set another, has no public commitments by anyone to show it in the United States, saw its closest competitor beat it to the market and is the target of a pressure campaign by a group hoping it never airs here.

The network claims it will initially be available in 40 million homes worldwide. However, not a single cable or satellite operator in the U.S. has agreed to show it. Even the Dish Network, the only U.S. system to carry the Al-Jazeera Arabic network, has not committed to Al-Jazeera International.
