Peter Arnett ( Takes credit for American Opposition to the War ) A MUST READ

3-30-2003

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

JOHN GIBSON: "Peter Arnett, who is now employed as a correspondant by National Georgraphic Television, was interviewed by one of Iraq's Information Ministers on Iraq State TV.

He began interviewing Arnett about what is going on in Iraq and what is going on in America about the war.

What Peter Arnett said is that it is clear that is going on in the US is clear that there is a growing challange of Bush's conduct of the war and then Arnett seemed to take credit for that, by saying that HIS reports from Iraq are helping opposition grow. "

ARNETT:" It is clear that within the United States that there is growing challenge to President Bush and he conduct about the war. And it is clear that our reports here about the Iraqi civilian casualties in the war, and the resistance of the Iraqi forces, are going back to the United States, and it helps those who oppose the war and challenge the policies to develop their arguments. "

So Arnett did not acknowldege what is a Pentagon claim, that the Iraqi casualties could be from Iraqi missiles which are errant missiles which are falling back down on their own Iraqi population. But Arnett went on to claim credit for growing opposition in the United States, but claimed that the Pentagon's War is a failure.

ARNETT: "Now America is reappraising the battlefield plan and delaying the war, for maybe a week. The first war plan has failed because of Iraqi resistance. Now they are trying to write another war plan. "

Of course Peter Arnett is now working for the National Georgraphic program, he has a deal with NBC and appears on another cable network. He has been allowed to do whatever he wants. This while other news agencies have been kicked out of Iraq, including Fox News Channel and CNN. And in addition the Newsday Newspapers has two reporters missing and assumed to be held by authorities in Iraq, yet Peter Arnett is allowed to stay. I guess that we can come to our own conclusions, it appears that Peter Arnett is now operating in Iraq and doing Iraq great favors by his own estimation, in organizing opposition to the war, here in this country, in the United States by his reports, and by giving the Iraqis a growing sense of nationalism, because by his accounts, the initial war plan has failed, and the Iraqi opposition has sent the war planners back to the drawing board.

So there you have it, Peter Arnett in Iraq.

The other thread already had 130 posts. What gives here?

[Nita Nupress]

This should be aiding and abetting the enemy, plain and simple. This is just hacking me off so much. This has got to STOP!

[laz17]

If Arnett is still around when Baghdad falls, he should be treated as a member of the Ba'ath party. I'm so outraged by his actions that this is all I'm able to say.

"on FOX they are referring to him as an American"

Walp, if he IS an American citizen, his ass is grass when (if ever) he returns to this country.

If he IS NOT an American citizen, he will be placed on the "enemies of the state" list poste-haste!

[sauropod]

The Whore of Baghdad is at it again.

[lonestar]

One much longer than yours got yanked!

[Timesink]

NG is openly leftist and delights in getting complaints like yours. Concentrate on MSNBC, which at least has to worry about the appearance of impropriety.

[KC_Conspirator]

I am watching Arnett's propaganda interview on FOX right now. He should be arrested for sedition. If this does not prove that he is reporting lies (as is the false "baby milk factory" and "Tailwind" frauds were not enough), than Joseph Goebells ghost must be smiling on Arnett today.
