Sure, Tamas, several hours of "video of a wedding party" must be real hard
to come by. Pictures/video of dead women and children must be rare indeed. Does anything- anything at all- tie any of this to the events in question? Anything?

Well, the video shown on the BBC shows *a* party or wedding. It could have been shot at any time over the last year or more, as far as that goes. BBC is the remorse of the world! They're certainly a reason for remorse in the UK. The BBC used to be pretty good, until they let their new coverage quality slide so much. -- cirby at cfl.rr.com Remember: Objects in rearview mirror may be hallucinations.

Never heard of terrorists using such equipment, eh? Right. Al-Qaeda: The Musical.... Looks like BG Kimmet has drawn very different conclusions from what you have, Scott. And if you are going to quote the guy, at least do so by paraphrasing his entire statement. How about today, then, from the briefing transcript: "...But I would tell you that, again, day after day after day, as we continue to get more evidence in, as we continue to get more new evidence coming in, it is pretty clear to us that what happened that night from the -- about after midnight until about 0400 -- that the activities that we saw happening on the ground were somewhat inconsistent with a wedding party. And it could well have been, as we have said before, that there was some sort of celebration going on. ..." "...somewhat inconsistent with a wedding party...." Yeah. There's a ringing statement of confidence. Scott |

You conveniently missed the PICTURE that showed the rocket launchers, and rounds these "wedding party" folks were found with? Hell of a wedding gift..."Oh, honey, look! It's that RPG-7 we were hoping to get!" And all of those *Sudanese* attendants..heck of along way to travel for a wedding in those parts... "...somewhat inconsistent with a wedding party...." Yeah. There's a ringing statement of confidence. How about his quote: "But at this point, we have seen really nothing that causes us to be -- to change our minds." Or: "We have found no evidence of any children being killed, by people on the ground. We had a ground force element that went through the objective. It did not identify any children killed. And so this, again, is part of what needs to be determined by an unbiased investigation. And that's exactly what we're taking forward." (This has been your pet peeve, right? The alleged butchering of children?) Or: "But the intelligence that we had, that got us there, what we found on the ground and our post-strike analysis suggests that what we had was a significant foreign-fighter waystation, smuggler waystation in the middle of the desert that was bringing people into this country for the sole purpose of attacking to kill the people of Iraq. We have a responsibility to maintain a safe and secure environment. That is our responsibility, that is our obligation, and we will carry that out." Again, a bit different from the version of Kimmet's words you keep parroting. Brooks Scott |

Although I actually agree with your sentiment here, from experience of both, I think the BBC still kicks the ass off any US news coverage. Fewer vested interests, less need to toe the party line. One telling problem with the Beeb right now is their lack of coverage on the Oil for Food scandal. *Very* little coverage, and what's there isn't exactly hard hitting. Note also that when they mention Hamas (or other Mideast terror groups) in an article, they don't call them terrorists. They call them militants or something less direct. When the word terrorist *is* used in a BBC story, it's usually inserted in "scare quotes." So Hamas isn't a bunch of terrorists. It's a militant group, or a so-called "terrorist" group. -- cirby at cfl.rr.com Remember: Objects in rearview mirror may be hallucinations. Slam on brakes accordingly. |
