“The UN stopped using Chalabi's information as a basis for conducting inspections once the tenuous nature of his sources and his dubious motivations became clear. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the mainstream US media, which give prominent coverage to sources of information that, had they not been related to Hussein's Iraq, would normally be immediately dismissed.” GivingSaidMotivationClearMediaInformationSourceBasesIraqRelatedMainstreamHusseinCoverageProminentConductingDubiousInspection Author:Scott Ritter
“Sometimes, reading my own media, the negativity can upset me, but I just deal with things on a positive basis.

“Anarchism means all sort of things to different people but the traditional anarchists' movements assumed that there'd be a highly organized society, just one organized from below with direct participation and so on.
