有完成他們的工作的媒介，那裡應該是沒有伊拉克戰爭

您是否得到主流媒介不講您原委的感覺？ 我們看崗位9/11，前伊拉克入侵期間(2001年9月到2003 3月)。 布什政府打鼓為與伊拉克的戰爭作為反恐怖戰爭的一個重要部分。 當管理認為時他們有堅實智力，其他(最世界其他地方)有疑義。 If the mainstream media had been doing their job, we all might have had more doubts and maybe wouldn’t have created the disaster that is Iraq today.
What the mainstream media didn’t tell us was the key players in the Bush administration who were pushing for the Iraq invasion (Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Scooter Libby and John Bolton) were also members of an organization formed in 1997 called The Project for the New American Century (PNAC, www.newamerican century.org). The goal of PNAC was to advocate the projection of U.S. power around the world and, as its statement of principles says, “… shape a new century favorable to American principles and interests.” It promotes the aggressive, pre-emptive foreign policy Bush has adopted since 9/11. PNAC also has been strongly urging regime change in Iraq since its formation.
Knowing this adds perspective to things like the “cherry picking” of intelligence by the Office of Special Plans, the yellow cake from Africa line in the president’s State of the Union speech (the infamous 16 words), and the bogus links between Iraq and al-Qaida. These “facts” would have been more suspect if we knew the key players had long wanted Saddam overthrown.
The Bush administration knew exactly what it was doing - no one could be that incompetent - namely, manipulating the post-9/11 feelings of the American people to push us into supporting the invasion of Iraq.
Why did the media not tell us? My only guess is that, post 9/11 we were a country that was fearful and bent on revenge. Seventy-two percent of the public thought that Saddam Hussein was personally involved with 9/11. If the news media started to explain the difference between a secular ruler (Saddam Hussein) and a radical Islamic fanatic (Osama bin Laden), eyes would glaze over, remotes would start clicking and the all-important viewers would tune out. And they can’t sell advertising without viewers.
