After the thanks giving massacre in Fallujah, which marked the beginning of Death Squad Democracy in Iraq for the first time ABC news broadcasted a sanitized report from the city of one thousand mosques. The most beautiful city in Iraq laid in ruin and of the 300,000 original residents only a mere 8 thousands are actually struggling in the ruble of a city devastated by the Imperial Tsunami.
Although our deep affection and sympathy towards the victims of the Tsunami must not distract away our deep resentment and condemnation of the nightmare that has been imposed on Iraq by the United State, it seems the corporate mass media has become the publicity agent of the US government in order to divert world public opinion from the US atrocities in Iraq.
A critical analysis of the propagated information about the Tsunami gives credence to our view that the media’s position is turning into a political smoke screen, a covert propaganda, and a publicity stunt of our corporate rulers to shape world public opinion towards the corporate benevolence and divert public attention from the tragedy in Iraq. The reality is that there have been over 100,000 death and millions uprooted and hundreds of mosques destroyed as a result of the US neocolonial invasion of Iraq which has a 24 million population. Yet, the covert propaganda machine of media has diverted the attention to the Tsunami which had 147000 deaths in a population area of 2 and a half billion people. Iraq has proportionally lost 100 times more life than South East Asia. Unfortunately, disasters must be compared proportionately and we should not allow the covert propaganda of the US Media about a natural disaster to distort the reality of premeditated mass murder of Fallujans.
No one has ever seen a vivid report of how the US forces separated all males of military age in Falluja from their families, who were forced out of the city, then were haunted down like stray dogs and murdered in cold blood. We have been inundated, daily, by vivid reports of the effects of the tsunami immediately all over the world by the corporate media, yet as Sheik Abbas Al Zubeini of Fallujah told IRIN ?the world should see the real picture of Fallujah? Indeed, it?s been more than a month after the ?Thanksgiving Massacre? of Fallujah in 2004, which took place in memory of the fist Thanks Giving Massacre of 700 Pequot Indians in 1637, and the world has yet to see an investigative report from the scenes of death and destruction in Fallujah. All we know is that the "city of thousands mosques" was demolished so brutally that residents spoke of even dogs not being able to live there. In the words of Captain Paul Fowler to Boston Globe "the only way to root them out is to destroy everything in your path". The "liberators" of Fallujah have not shown one picture of their presumed "liberated" population. Their proclaimed aim of rescuing Fallujan from Abu Musab Al-Zarqavi was as phony and illusive as their overt propaganda about Iraq’s WMD. Indeed 300,000 population of Fallujah has disappeared from the world radar scene. No one knows how many were murdered. The world has forgotten the pains and suffering of Citizens of this beautiful City and while the UN Aids are pouring for the Natural Tsunami, no UN agency has bothered to help the suffering masses of Fallujah.
In deed, a US made Tsunami of bombs and missiles have been pounding the small country of Iraq for more than a year every day, with more than 100,000 dead and millions of displaced people, and the US forces have successfully prevented any report or body counts. The natural Tsunami was over in one day with virtually no long lasting effects and long term heath hazard to the effected population, whereas the US plane have dropped million pounds of Depleted Uranium on Iraq affecting the health, reproductive organs and well-being of millions of Iraqis for generation to come. Tsunami destroyed shacks and flimsy beach houses whereas US Invasion forces in Fallujah destroyed the city of thousands mosques and displaced 300,000.00 people. Why the mass media does not show the face, lives and the cry of help of murder victims in Iraq.
WHY there is a conspiracy of silence about Iraq and nobody is talking? On the other hand, the mass media is fascinated by the feeding frenzies over Tsunami. And the merger US humanitarian aids to its victims. Did Tsunami provide the cover under which the suffering people of Iraq would be buried? Are the Public Relation and propaganda machines of Pentagon and the State Department using Tsunami as smoke screen behind which they can pull-off a phantom election to legitimize their occupation of Iraq by continuation of the US installed puppet government? Suddenly American Corporations and Government covert propaganda machine have found in Tsunami their greatest ally not only to put Christianity over Islam but also an opportunity to expand their business and global control abroad by improving the US image abroad.
While the whole world is mesmerized by their TV sets to see the pornographic images of Tsunami in ACHE and Seri Lanka, US Invaders continue their campaign of death and destruction in Fallujah, Musel and elsewhere in Iraq at the rate of one billion dollars every 4 days. Instead of condemning their own government for their brutal campaign of terror and occupation of Iraq, the US media is condemning the Muslim world for not pledging enough help to Tsunami victims. The Muslim charities have been prevented to help anyone in Iraq and Western media is wondering why the Muslim nations are not pledging more money and pouring more help to the Tsunami stricken world? US forces are not letting any independent reporter inside Fallujah where they have put thousands of people is mass graves to eliminate every evidence of mass murder, and destruction while the media is showing the most pornographic pictures of Tsunami to de-synthesize the public toward death and destruction.
Media has a great responsibility to expose the imperial design and not let the daily coverage by corporate media burry the atrocities of the US Invasion and colonial occupation of Iraq. Unlike the Natural Tsunami, The Imperial Tsunami of death, destruction, carnage and torture is not producing any picture or videos because every reporter has been intimidated, murdered, exiled, bought out or banished from Iraq. As human beings we are responsible to become the voice of the voiceless. We owe it to the brave people of the beautiful city of Fallujah who resisted the imperial dominance of their country and were murdered while defending their land, their home, their dignity, their family and their honor from the shameless neo-Crusaders.
