      wow, i just got to see it. pretty bleak stuff. i wish i could say i was surprised but at this stage im not. the most frightening statistic was the innocents death %'s increasing through the past wars. i guess its easier to kill someone when they're not shooting back.

        As i see it now when the army want to launch an attack on a certain area,instead of strategically planning the operation and trying to limit the amount of casualtys they simply blow the whole ~~~~in area up civilians included,the same thing happened in palestine
        They seem to be a law unto themselves and are free from any international law
        The geneva convention smacks of double standards,its used when it suits the west and ignored when it dosent
        And its innocent people that suffer
        And god help you if you try and highlight whats happening
        Look at what the usa have done to bradley manning
        If you dont know then search
        Its disgusting

          Some good one's in there Grizz, the USA really do want to rule the world, don't they. Seems you can run your own Country as you like, as long as they have a say in it. These should av been plastered all over the news.

            You simply can't speak out about it in the US or UK. Even at a low level such as on a forum like DK, you can't speak out about what the armed forces are doing. If you do your told "If you don't like it here go elsewhere" or your referred to as "the anti war lot!" and made to feel that you are disrespectful of the country and the armed forces.

            The media here and in the US have gone into propaganda over drive. All the arm forces are heroes don't you know and what sort of coverage is given on the news of a school or township being bombed by the US/UK western forces killing dozens of innocent civilians?? Not as much coverage as a soldier being killed. Now don't get me wrong all deaths in this and the last war are disgraceful - included deaths of the soldiers, but the UK & US (through the government and media) don't seem to want to recongnise that they and there armed forces have caused hundreds of thousands of innocent deaths.

            The wars on Iraq and Afghanistan are/have been diplorable and I so hope that the ordinary people of the UK and the western world will see through the sh*te being peddled through the media.

            Sorry if this upsets some and I don't want to cause any offence, but it's something I feel strongly about.

                its nice to know there are a few journalists left with integrity and compassion.
                last year i had reason to see journalists in action up close and i have to say they are a nasty lot, doing anything to get their story and trying to putting a price on tragedy. never again gonna read a newspaper and take it at face value.

                  i make you right grizz
                  the power of media as a whoe is unbelievable,in the right hands
                  trouble is its all too easy to hoodwink the masses with rhetoric etc printed in the daily red tops as an example,,,very powerful medium and the ones at the top know it and use it to there advantage
