SUDAN's Darfur: Zionists Preparing Grounds for U.S. Intervention: the Holes in the Propaganda are Big & Ugly

1. Your program was about an Islamic nation, Sudan, and focused on Darfur region which is also Muslim. In that context, you could not bring on any Islamic or Muslim presenter. Thus you missed out on a basic ingredient of journalism: the viewpoint of the people being discussed.
2. Your panelists, Nick Christoff of the New York Times, Ken Bacon of Refugees International and Charles Snyder [ex-State Dept.?] came up with the claim that 400,000 people have been killed in Darfur by the Khartoum-backed militias. There was no indication how your people arrived at this figure. Who carried out the survey, when and using how many investigators?
3. I wonder if you realize that 400,000 is a lot of people. The United States, with the most horrendous weapons potential in the world, has killed only 100,000 civilians in Iraq, according to Lancet magazine. How the Sudanese militias could kill 400,000 is incredible, considering the primitive weaponry of the militias. Perhaps the U.S. should hire the militias as its instructors in Iraq.
4. If the militias, with no helicopter gunships, travelling over the vast Darfur, were to kill ONE HUNDRED PEOPLE EVERY DAY for every day of the 365 days in a year, that would be 36,500 people. If the militias kept doing that for four years, they would kill 146,000 people. Even for Christian missionary propaganda, that's quite a stretch!
5. Your presenters claimed that EVERY WOMAN who goes to fetch water from wells outside the refugee camps is raped. Even a much less seasoned journalist than you, Ms. Rayme, would have asked: Who told you this? And as, obviously, your three presenters do not know the language, which group did the interpretor belong to who told them the tall tales about rape?
6. The biggest hole in your program was your inability to ask the obvious question: WHO HAS ARMED THE DARFUR REBELS so well that the Khartoum government had to raise militias to fight back? That's the key question and you failed to ask it. [Your guests went into Darfur via Chad, which is allied to Israel, so they should know.]
7. Ken Bacon is supposed to be working for Refugees International but the demands he laid down for the Bush Administration to implement indicate that he is not a humanitarian relief worker but a political operative bent on the destruction of Sudan. He wants the U.S. to:
   1. Impose SANCTIONS on Sudan.
   2. Urge all American businesses to divest from Sudan.
   3. Impose a NO FLY zone on Sudan.
   4. Send in TROOPS. Ms. Rayme, you did not question Bacon at all. That's poor journalism
8. In spite of all the gobbledegook your guests spouted about Sudan ["Arabs are fighting Africans" etc] it was still useful because it brought out the SPECIFIC FORCES participating in the anti-Sudan program:
   1. The Zionist lobby in America.
   2. Billy Graham and the Evangelists.
   3. The Jewish Holocaust museum and related groups.
9. Would you agree that after the hiatus created by the Sudan-U.S. agreement to work together against terrorism, the Bush administration will move once more against Sudan, and the "work" being done by your three guests will then come in handy?

IRAQ: Media Trying to divert Americans While U.S. Faces no-win Situation

• U.S. media are censoring coverage of mujahidin attacks leading to U.S. military losses. Americans are no longer given ANY details of incidents in which U.S. troops are killed.
• By June 15, the U.S. military death toll of those killed in action rose to 1713 [according to the U.S.]. This does not include the 835 plus American "defense contractors" whom the Islamic resistance has killed. More than 12,000 U.S. troops were wounded by mid May, thousands with arms, legs and eyes blown away. Latest figures are not available.
• TV coverage focuses on "insurgent" attacks on collaborators working for the U.S. These collaborators are described as "Iraqis" while the mujahidin are described as "insurgents."
• The biggest problem for the U.S. are "suicide bombers" [known as martyrdom operators in the Muslim world]. The media, especially NBC and CBS, have come up with interesting theories meant to discredit the martyrdom operators. None of these can be verified and they often border on the hysterical.
• If a "suicide bomber" misses his target and kills innocent people, such tragedies become the focus of U.S. media attention. [Somewhat like the Israeli attempt to focus on innocent victims of "suicide bombers" while censoring the real targets of such attacks.]
• The U.S.' MAIN PROPAGANDA GAMBIT is that a Shia-Sunni conflict is going on and al-Zarqawi is attacking Shias. The media methodology here is that when the Islamic forces attack Kurdish collaborators working for the U.S. and Israel, these are barely reported. If the mujahidin attack Sunnis working for the U.S., the reports have to be discovered through close scrutiny. However, if the Shias working for the U.S. are attacked, the media report it front and center to build the "sectarian war" theory.
• When pressed, U.S. media do admit that 80% of the "insurgents" are Iraqis and even 60% of the "suicide bombers" are Iraqis.
• However, there can be little doubt that, organized by Islamic leader Abu Mus'ab al-Zarqawi, Muslims from many countries are carrying out Jihad in Iraq. According to U.S. reports, out of 2000 "outside" mujahidin in Iraq, 20% of the martyrdom operators are ALGERIANS. This is significant because the U.S. and France supported the genocide against the Islamic people of Algeria carried out by the military junta. The Algerians are striking back in Iraq.
• The U.S. wants to destroy the Islamic resistance in Iraq so that then an exit strategy can be worked out. [There is NO exit strategy right now.] Every week, a new military operation is launched to crush the Iraqis. The results are meagre. In one offensive near the Syrian border, U.S. forces claimed to have killed "40 insurgents," but Jane Arraf, a journalist embedded with the U.S. forces near Syria could not come up with any evidence of such "insurgent" losses. There are indications that these were civilians killed in U.S. air raids.
• IRAN is playing an interesting role in IRAQ in tandem with U.S. occupation forces. An Iraqi Shi'ite group known as Wolf Commando, trained in Iran, is said to have been attacking Sunni Muslim leaders to promote the "sectarian war" theory. The Commando was more or less shut down when a well disguised mujahid carried out a martyrdom operation in its headquarters [the wolf's lair?] killing several officers and just missing the top commander.
