Bomb Kills 11 at Jordan Embassy in Iraq - AP | 8/7/03 | ANDREW ENGLAND
''While Jordan is a major entry point into Iraq and remains a large trading partner, many Iraqis are resentful that Jordan dropped its support for Saddam Hussein after the 1991 Gulf War (news - web sites), and allowed U.S. troops to use its soil as a base during the latest war.''
Is that why the newly freed Iraqi people looted the Ba'athist hospitals and the UN building - because the Baathists and UN didn't support Saddam Hussein over the years?
When the American press and their international press allies promoted the Communist-sponsored anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-war rallies last Winter, they helped give France and Germany an excuse to say "No" to helping us topple Saddam Hussein and stabilize Iraq.
After over four months of negative, dishonest, daily press coverage on the war - last week both the World Bank and the Arab League refused to endorse the Coalition sponsored provisional Iraqi Council, depriving the fledgling nation of legitimacy on the world stage, access to needed funds, undermining potential international business deals - though both international organizations worked with an unelected mass-murderer for years.
Those who opposed our efforts in Iraq have been undermining our efforts since - working to weaken our country on the world stage and place the 'UN'-capable UN back in authority.
This is not the will of the Iraqi people, or the Coalition.
It is, however, the will of the Democratic Party and the left-wing mainstream (inter) national press.
"In general, the biggest shortcoming from Iraq to Afghanistan is not the accomplishment of the mission as much as it is getting the word out about the successes we're achieving every day." ~ Gen. Richard Myers, 8/05/03
Watch for Saddam's money showing up in some strange places
The General is absolutely right.
Durn media...
