An Open Letter To Our Friends in the National Media (re Abu Ghraib)

[Plaid Adder]

To all of you pundits who are now suddenly finding yourselves disgusted by what we have wrought in Iraq and wondering where we went wrong:

You cannot have a war without atrocities. War IS an atrocity. If you don't like atrocities, DON'T START A FUCKING WAR.

Sincerely,

The Plaid Adder

1. Exactly

And every new horror that confronts you, remember that none of it....NONE OF IT...was necessary.

Amen! Amain!

3. I want to add:

All of you butt holes who consider yourselves "invesigative journalists" it's time to get off your ass and get back to work. No more cut and paste journalism.

4. And, And

And if you're going to be in the WAR business (GE)
then, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE NEWS BUSINESS!!!

Thank You

5. "Rules Of War"...WTF Is That?

How many times have we heard the TV Generals...like war is some organized playbook with referees and whistles. Well, at least we knbow who the cheerleaders are!

7. Make the Media Pay

I don't yet know how but I'll think of something.
Having worked on the Stop dr laura national boycott and
campaign I'm about ready to storm the gates of the media
whores.
