I dont really want to talk about the war, but the Iraqi Minister of Propa... i mean Infomation is a real laugh. U just cant take him seriously.
How can he say "we have driven them back" and on the split screen the tanks are rolling into bagdad!?!
LMFAO.
The funny thing is, the army says "he is not a target" MAN, someone put a hit on the guy,PLEASE.
I cant even look at him without laughing. U have to admire his gaul though, he is 1 solid guy. The tanks could be parked behind him and he'd still back himself.

he was doing such a good job too....and now he is nowhere to be seen. What a bummer, I was enjoying making fun of his propaganda. At least the USA's propaganda is believable (and at least based on fact).
"the americans are nowhere near baghdad" and "we are killing them in the streets by the thousands" were my two favorites....oh and "surely the infidels will die" "we will chop off their head"

At least he is -or was- the most honest of the liars around: Do you think he thought we'd beleive anything he said? At least he went absurd about it 'said' : "Hey, we are politicians and we don't need to speak truth, we speak for morale and propaganda and here I do it the old way, unpolished". Perhaps you guys prefer the other liars who are better actors, more convincing, more bloody handed. "We send the missiles to the market place and the nursing home and rocketed that journalists up the hotel but it was all by accident" and this is not absurd?!?

I wouldn't say he is spreading propaganda simply because no one believes him.He's quite a hoot isn't he.

Not meaning to sound Anti-co alition or anything...but have you noticed how much propaganda the Coallition have been spreading also?
For instance...the fact that this ENTIRE war has started off as the 'War on Iraq'...then moved to a 'battle' now it is a conflict? Isnt it all just war?
