" [...] The evidentiary value of the alleged
recordings is close to nil. The recordings could
easily have been faked, as the United States has a
history of doing. In 2001, US public radio's "This
American Life," broadcast recently declassified tapes
from a clandestine radio station set up by the CIA in
the 1950s to help provoke a coup against the
democratically-elected government of Guatemala. The
radio station, which broadcast completely fake
"opposition" voices, is credited with helping bring a
repressive American client regime to power. (Program
broadcast on 30 November 2001. See www.thislife.org
for details.)

More directly related to current events, New York's
Village Voice newspaper reported late last year how,
during the 1990s, a Harvard graduate student
celebrated for his convincing impersonation of Saddam
Hussein was hired by the high-powered, US
government-linked public relations firm, the Rendon
Group, to make fake propaganda broadcasts of Saddam's
voice to Iraq. The student received three thousand
dollars a month for his troubles. "I never got a
straight answer on whether the Iraqi resistance, the
CIA, or policy makers on the Hill were actually the
ones calling the shots," the report quotes the ersatz
Saddam saying, "but ultimately I realized that the
guys doing spin (sic) were very well funded and
completely cut loose." ("Broadcast Ruse: A Grad
Student Mimicked Saddam Over the Airwaves," The
Village Voice, 13-19 November 2002)

In 1990, another Washington public relations firm,
hired by Kuwait, helped win support for the first Gulf
War by fabricating claims, presented to Congress, that
Iraqi troops threw Kuwaiti babies out of incubators.
(see "The Lies We Are Told About Iraq," The Los
Angeles Times, 5 January 2003)

Those taken in by that deception, will want to be more
skeptical this time around. It also doesn't help US
credibility that the Pentagon has repeatedly over the
past two years stated that it would use deception and
black propaganda to achieve its policy goals.

[...] Powell claimed that Zarqawi (who has now been
promoted by the Americans to the status of "The
Zarqawi Network," complete with flow charts) was
training terrorists in a poison-making camp in
northern Iraq. Powell skipped dismissively over a very
pertinent fact. Since the 1991 Gulf War, northern Iraq
has been out of the control of Saddam Hussein's
government.

The United States and United Kingdom have been cruelly
bombing the illegally-declared northern and southern
"no-fly zones" for twelve years, largely to limit the
influence of Iraq's government to the center of the
country. Northern Iraq has been ruled by competing
Kurdish factions with United States backing. Since the
1991 Gulf War, the CIA has been operating freely in
northern Iraq, and the United States recently
acknowledged that its special forces are operating in
that part of the country. Powell showed what he said
was a satellite photo of the "terrorist camp." If the
United States knows where such a camp lies, and has
forces in the region, why has it not bombed it or
attacked it, as it has bombed so many other
installations in northern Iraq? An attack on a
"terrorist" installation in northern Iraq requires
anything but an invasion of the entire country.
Furthermore, if the camp even exists, why would the
United States give its occupants notice that it knows
where it is, rather than just taking it out, as, say,
it took out a car load of alleged "terrorists" in
Yemen last year? It just doesn't add up. [...] "


... enjoy!
