[QUOTE]Originally posted by Veers: [QB] Be advised that Iraq's media is state-run...say, for instance, someone would write a headline expressing sorrow for the Coumbia astronauts. That reporter would a)be imprisoned b)be killed or c)be silenced in someway. I'm sure many Iraqis feel sorry for the US today and on September 11, but there story just isn't getting out because Saddam won't let it get out. He's a dictator, and he controls what his press says. Be advised, also, that while it may be a lie on Iraq's part, a few days after Sept. 11, maybe the 16th or so, Iraq said they would be willing to help the US in some way "if the US asked for it." But they said American arrogance would probably stop them from asking Iraq for any aid or help from Iraq after the attacks. Yes, many of them hate us, but wouldn't you hate a country that has threatened to bomb you into oblivion for months? [/QB][/QUOTE]
