Wow! These Yemenis need to start listening to American conservative talk radio or surfin' FreeRepublic if they want to get a dose of the truth.

The shoe hitting thing seems awfully powerful to the Middle Easterners. We need to get a squad of shoe whackers to start thumping the prominent unAmerican leaders of the Saddamocrat Party on camera. Maybe some of the 'Rat voters will see the light.

". . . we realise that the Iraqis know him better than us."

"our sentiments toward him turned into hatred after we saw the Iraqis smashing his posters and statues in Baghdad .. Now we realise that the Iraqis know him better than us."

Gives some idea of the responsibility of CNN, Al-Jazeera, etc., who have clearly kissed Saddam's butt throughout their entire existence. The only reason they showed this at all was that it caught them by surprise as they'd believed their own propaganda.

""I was not aware of the fact that the Iraqi people were yearning to get rid of the tyrrant," he said."

If the entire region had free media (papers, TV) people could regularly see both sides of issues. TV is powerful, because about 60 percent can't read.

As it has been, the only side of issues was the "arab-muslims" against the Israel-supporting infidels. I wonder how effective the Voice of America is, could be?

Pictures and words on TV would be a nice technical improvement, perhaps based in Free Iraq. The US credibility has gone way up.

"I was not aware of the fact that the Iraqi people were yearning to get rid of the tyrrant," he said.

Baloney. People like this think they will negotiate with the Almighty upon their death: "Gee God, I didn't know that was wrong!"

God wrote the truth in our hearts, so we have no excuse

Can Arabs in other countries really have been so ignorant of Saddam's true nature?

[ppaul]

We have been baffled and I believe that he is the cause of the crises in the region.

So maybe now they'll stop blaming Israel?

Wishful thinking.
