The repeated question that our taking Iraqi tv out is against the Geneva Convention are asinine. Haven't heard one discuss how it's against the Geneva Convention to use children as human shields.

I believe the scales are falling off a lot of eyes in the last week.

Is the question du jour the taking out of Iraqi TV against the Geneva Convention?

A prime example of pack journalism witnessed real time.

General Brooks stated earlier in the briefing that the tv station has duel purposes. I believe he said it is used to communicate to other parts of country.

Hi Peach, I think they should stand up and say that we are taking the $%^%#^ tv off so they can't continue to spread propoganda. Gloves off,

I have read the Geneva Convention and I can't recall anything about TV or media. I even went back and did a qick browse of the document. Can anyone give me a cite?
