Reply #22: Rumsfield's famous "Iraq has 100 newspapers" quote

[eileen_d]

looks pretty shoddy in this light:

When a reporter from the newspaper Iraq Today attempted to take a photograph of the bulldozers at work a soldier grabbed his camera and tried to smash it.

But honestly that is probably the least atrocious thing about the events reported in this article. :mad:

Edit: Here is Rumsfeld's quote:
"You know I just came in from Baghdad, and there are now 100 newspapers in the free press in Iraq - in the free Iraq - where people are able to say whatever they wish, people are debating, people are discussing, something they had not done for decades," he said.
