National Geographic Resurrecting Peter Arnett
MSNBC
Posted on 12/08/2002 9:00:14 PM PST by muleskinner
National Geographic is doing a "Return To Bagdad" segment, featuring our dearly beloved Peteras host. Sadam must have paid for this P.R. piece. Highlights show free education thru "college", "The Philosophy of Sadam" and "The Hisory of the Ba'ath Party" being some of the required classes. Other highlights include the "Gee, don't the Iraqi students seem just like us" comment and the benevolence of Sadam...he paid for 500 weddings, looks like one of those Moonie weddings, with a cast of thousands. Arnett, seeming to equate the American Revolution and the tactics of terror used by the Ba'ath party to attain power. "Well, they(iraq) say they had their Revolution and used the same techniques the American's used to attain that, death and violence". My skin was crawling when I heard that one.

Peter the pumpkin eater repeats evry lie uttered by the iraqi's as gospel truth. Like a replay of '91. What a fool.

I started to watch Petah on National G but switched the channel after he made the American Revolution and Baath Party comparison. Too bad he didn't get hit with a cruise missile in '91.

If the "Mother of All Liberals" Mondale and the "Special K Flake" Kissinger can be brought back from the dead, then it stands to reason that "Saddam's Best Friend" Arnett can return to the scene of the crime.

Has our cruise missile technology evolved to the point
of incorporating facial recognition yet?

Anybody know if the Alexander Cockburn who writes frequently for NG these days is the same left-wing wacko who writes under the same byline for The Nation and other commie pubs?

Cockburn comes by his left-ward tilt honestly. Papa Cockburn was the commies biggest house writer-toadie in the UK for years. Part of that old Korda crowd. They made big money working the commie plantation, sort of like Al Gore Sr.
