I just find that these rather stellar and obvious anomalies continue to occur in the most vile propaganda drives. Starting back with the alleged Osama "confession tape" produced by the US (a blind man could tell the subject of this video was NOT Osama bin Laden), and in the media staged "toppling" of the Saddam Statue in Furdos Square after the invasion, as well as in the current subject matter. We have single individuals who continuously seem to be 'posing' for specific photographers at specific, times, locations and events. I just don't buy the whole concept as anything but staged for (if not by) the American media. THE 911 OSAMA CONFESSION TAPE... A small child could determine that this was completely faked. http://www.viewzone.com/osama.html http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/osamatape.html http://www.mujca.com/osama.htm http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/farenheit911michaelmoore.html http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/realityzone/UFNOsamatapefake.htm http://tim.2wgroup.com/blog/archives/001006.html http://www.freedomisforeverybody.org/Osama%20bin%20CIA%20Agent.php?id=1521491 http://www.aljazeera.com/me.asp?service_ID=11633 http://www.ilaam.net/Sept11/TapeIsFraud.html The Saddam Statue: http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article2842.htm http://www.earthisland.org/project/newsPage2.cfm?newsID=397&pageID=177&subSiteID=44 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3611869.stm http://www.the7thfire.com/Politics%20and%20History/SaddamStatue.htm http://www.prisonplanet.com/a_tale_of_two_photos.html http://www.thenation.com/blogs/notion?pid=185455 http://www.globalsecurity.org/org/news/2004/040722-saddam-statue.htm http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Toppling_the_statue_of_Saddam_Hussein http://****tland.indymedia.org/en/2004/07/293155.shtml
