Iraqis chant anti-U.S slogans outside Abu Ghraib prison today ^ | 05-05-2004 | AP

The AP is running a photo, "Iraqis chant anti-U.S slogans outside Abu Ghraib prison today" - URL link http://www.foxnews.com/images/124509/12_2_050504_iraq.jpg

This photo is making the wires, newspapers, and new web sites across the USA, etc.. In the photo, we see the angry Iraqis holding "signs", which are computer printed standard flyers on white paper and taped to card board, entitled "Iraqis chant anti-U.S slogans outside Abu Ghraib prison today - AP". The "signs" are in ENGLISH. Look at the picture of the Iraqis holding these "signs". Try to read the "signs". They are in ENGLISH. The Iraqis in the photo, do they look like the type who can read/write English? While it is difficult to read the ENTIRE content of the "signs", they read that Democracy isn't forcing people to follow the USA, and such. On the back of the "signs" is the words "You have a bad impression about Americans and Chritians" (as if it is a question to the Iraqis).

I do not believe these Iraqis can read or write English.

I believe these were flyers, either directly handed out to them or dropped from trucks or other, purposely with the intent that these Iraqis use these "signs", and that the audience is the American people with the message delivered to the American people by the phony liberal news.

I believe that "enemies within", e.g. CBS, ABC, leftists in America, the Democratic Party operatives, printed these signs, delivered them to these Iraqis, and told them to hold them up.

Then the AP, etc., takes the photo. The purpose is propaganda, and I believe this was orchestrated by elements such as Dan Rather/CBS et all, ABC, leftsist in US and Europe, the Democratic Party.

We are fighting a war, not only against the terrorists, but CBS, ABC, the Democratic Party, and the left et all.

Electing John Kerry is more important to them then the safety of Americans.

Why is a Mosque more holy to them then the bodies of our American soldiers?

Why do the want to put the "police on trial" (Demos on 911 commission, media), instead of the terrorist criminals? To distract those who need to do the job of protecting us?

Why do they want to put our soldiers on trial? In the USA, we also have signs. They read "SUPPORT OUR TROOPS". That is what they want to tranish. They want to make it hard for those to hold up such a sign. They want to make someone think "twice" before they hold up a sign "SUPPORT OUR TROOOPS". That is the real agenda of outrage regarding the naked Iraqis prisoners, not concern for the prisoners.

They want the Iraqis to hold up signs "Democracy does nto mean that people must follow the USA", and they want to intimidate us from holding up signs "Support our Troops". They gave the Iraqis those signs.

They want us to lose the war on terror.

That is the facts. Period.

I wonder when al-GoreZeera TV will have a crew over there. Probably by Friday.

[Impy]

They were inside the prison.

Ok, so how did all these peasants get these slick, blown up photos to wave around? Someone is providing these posters, and someone organized this thing.

And they were handed out to those specifically illiterate: the young macho killer apprentices and the old woman...

Has anyone heard from James Carville lately. He helped Netanyahu Not get elected. I smell a democRAT plan afoot.

[Eagle Eye]

What? You don't think that she went to the web and downloaded and printed those pictures herself?

Me? I think she's a web page developer consultant when she's not running her E-bay auction buisness from her own home.

[goodnesswins]

He's upset, because like the rest of us we're sick of the propaganda.....where were these people when American's were being butchered? HMMMM?

[Armed Civilian]

He's behind it.

[Armed Civilian]

Or maybe it's these guys, and I do mean guys, every one of them.

Sign on right is upside down! LOL
These people had help.
The color pics of the prisoners are large format full color from digital, so you're talking organizers with internet and technology access, and money. These are not Westerners that made these signs though (we don't say "force peoples")- but they are people working inside Iraq to influence public opinion both in Iraq and in America. The press- newswires and TV networks etc, have become a dangerous influence on world events since what they show are usually out of context events or stuff that's magnified disproportionately. Everything is played to the camera, like this demonstration.

The grammar is awfully correct on those "Iraqi made" signs.

Really? "Democracy is not to force peoples to follow USA" doesn't seem very elegant. I think it's a real stretch to say these were printed by some Western source. Which is not to say that they aren't intended as progaganda.

[visualops]

Bingo!

[Armed Civilian]

Or it could be them.

FAX DeLay and Frist: NO more commissions, NO more investigations (Iraqi Torture commission)

[prairiebreeze]

yes, that sign wasn't too readable in the first picture that was posted and that I responded to. It later was posted in a more frontal shot and does show some incorrect grammar.

Still a made for TV moment IMO.

I wonder if the $27 million Kerry is spending this week on advertising includes printing, glueing, and distribution of "flyers"

[sergeantdave]

The Ford Foundation has funneled something like $192 million to Muslim groups over the past 30 years. Some of these groups are visciously anti-American. A Jewish group is investigating the various ties between Ford and extremist Arab groups, although no links have yet been found that terrorists are directly benefitting from Ford money.

It looks, though, that these signs and this demonstration could be Ford Foundation money at work. Ford was involved at the UN race conference several years ago where Arabs were carrying swastikas, equating Jews to Nazis, etc. Powell and the US delegation walked out of the conference.

To say left wing western interests may be involved in this demonstration is not a conspiracy theory, but a real possibility that should be investigated.

I'm just as sick of the propaganda as you are and as he is.

My problem with him is the fact that he thinks the Iraqis couldn't possibly speak English or put together a coherent thought.

They were ignorant remarks.

But I still stand by my opinion about their right to protest.

[goodnesswins]

I think the fact that the signs look SOOOO Professional might be the clue.....sure, they can protest, but WHO IS BEHIND IT! Sorry, I do not EVEN make signs that professional when I go out on the freeway to support our troops rally's.....and I don't see that many others either.

[Beckwith]

Just like the "Baby Milk Factory" sign on the chemical factory in Gulf I.

[texasflower]

I don't CARE who is behind it. My comments to Brian_Baldwin pertain to his bigotry.

He clearly thinks the Iraqis are complete imbeciles.

I AGREE WITH EVERYONE ABOUT THE PROBABLE MEDIA COMPLICITY!!!!!!!!!!

I don't agree that they stupid people and regardless of the help they may have had, they still have the right to protest.

Once more. I agree with everyone about WHO may have created the signs.

Okay?
