War on Iraq: Video of POWs

Posted by Dan on Mar 25, 2003 @ 9:27 AM

Ok, so I've been watching tons of CNN over the past couple of days. You've got to take everything you see with a grain of salt and try to read between all the lines of propaganda. Regardless of who's news your watching, your watching the news that's going to be skewed to the view of the people producing the content—it's just human nature and it's to be expected.

One of the biggest news items over the past couple of days has been the news about the video that Aljazeera has been broadcasting. Normally I can't stomach watching human suffering—especially when it comes to death, but I've had the odd feeling I needed to see the video to really understand a few things.

Finally last night, I was able to track down the footage that Aljazeera's been showing. I'm posting the links below, but they contain extremely graphic images, so I'm warning you now. However, I also think it's important to view this information in order to better understand what's going on in Iraq.
