 Sgrena’s Ordeal Highlights World’s Racist View of Iraq
   Submitted by Siriel Admin on 2005 Mar 12 - 10:33pm 

Crimes in Iraq: Sgrena’s Ordeal Highlights World’s Racist View of Iraq [click to read this article]
By Alexander Gainem, Freelance Journalist, March 10, 2005.

Selected excerpts :
Whether you side with Sgrena or want her dead, there is something inescapable about the entire affair. Iraqis have been facing this danger on a daily basis and almost every day there are dead Iraqis brought into morgues after being cut down by US gunfire. 
But no coverage for the Iraqi dead. No public outcry in the world. No debate in the blogs. No mention in FOX or otherwise. No, they don’t have pretty Latin names and dirty-blonde hair. They don’t have their own columns and candlelight vigils held for them on the streets of Europe.

Siriel-Admin :
English: United Kingdom/Great Britain [S. Georgia & Sandwich Is] This article is included to remind us all that, indeed, countless Iraqis have been murdered and are still being gunned down when their cars “stop too late”...
Francais ou France [Guyane/Guiana Fr. & Is. Reunion] Cet article est inclus pour nous rappeler que d’innombrables Irakien-nes ont été assassinés et se font encore descendre quand leurs voitures «arrêtent trop tard»...

 
Siriel   Subject : Imagine an unarmed, wounded American soldier, in a church...

Let me paint a word picture. An unarmed, wounded American soldier is lying helpless, bleeding and barely conscious on the floor of a church in a country with which the US is at war.

An armed soldier of that country walks up to the wounded American. It so happens that a TV cameraman is present. He films the foreign soldier shouting, "He's fucking faking he's dead!" One of his comrades says "And he's breathing". The first soldier again yells "He's faking he's fucking dead!" He then kills the helpless, wounded man with a burst of fire that blows his head off and spatters the room with blood and tiny bits of flesh and bone. One of the foreign soldiers says "He's dead, now."

What do you think the reaction of most of the American people would be to the murder of a wounded, unarmed US soldier lying helpless and barely conscious on the floor of a church in a foreign land?
