Is it me or the media just don't talk about Iraqi interim Prime Minister
Relatives Taken Hostage By Ansar al-Jihad ? Usually when hostage got taken
dead line were imposed if you don't do this or that, the media use to cover
it, especialy when when the dead line is passed. Could it be another proof
that what we see on the news media is "controlled" ?

I mean it's a big story ! why no one is talking about it ?

I would say Arafat took over as the big news

Also I looked up the story and about the same time the slauter houses
were found in Irag. If thats where they were holding them it probably put a kink in their plans..

Yea but at the same time CNN spent about an hour talking about
Vice president at hospital, for nothing. D'ont worry when they
want you to know something there is always a place in between
headlines for it.

Lets face it. Iraqi interim Prime Minister Relatives Taken Hostage
is not a good news for those who promote or want you to believe in
some kind security and stability in Irak.

I mean it's not mister Joe the truck driver who've been kidnaped,
It's members of the prime minister familly ! It just shows that the
Iraki government doesn't control anything.

Very bad publicity...

Your history is correct but incomplete.

Thanks Tom for that reply
I'm reading about it for the first time, really-
It's a mess...cc

I wonder if Bush's distant relative/s are protected (you can't protect every one related can you?

Some day (or year) I may take you up on that offer.

I knew about it yesterday. The damand was to stop the assault on Fallujah; the Prime Minister would not do it.

I'll go look over there, but I don't get the reference.

Someone over at the Flame of the Day thread posted this site:

I read the post-WWII history, and I think I got it mostly right.

"Schwarzenegger for President" would be the final nail in the coffin of RepugliKKKans destroying America. They will circumvent the will of the "Founding Fathers" not only to take rights away from gays (and everyone else they don't like), but to just put a foreigner on the ballot because they think he can win. As a prof in Germany told me on a recent visit --- "the US should bear in mind what happened to us when we let an Austrian run things!" What a third-world country the US has become. Oh well, at least the $ is tanking so my Christmas visit my £ will go much further.
