Danke für den Link! Sehr lesenswerte Artikel gibt es dort, z.B. zur
Berichterstattung über Falludscha in den US-Medien.
Ausschnitt:
"Neither has discussion entered the unspeakable territory of previous
US interventions in Fallujah. No mention that armed resistance in
Fallujah developed only after the US military opened fire on crowd of
civilians, killing seventeen and injuring some seventy more, in what
the former described as "appropriate action"—perhaps because the
"collateral damage estimate was within permissible limits," a
justification given for a later bombardment of the city that killed
twenty. Similarly absent from the current military campaign has been
any discussion of the precedent set by the most recent US attacks on
Fallujah in April. A New York Times article devoted to the US
takeover of the Fallujah General Hospital (which like all major US
coverage, was uninterested in the leveling of another Fallujah
hospital two days prior), for instance, said only that the hospital
has been "considered a refuge for insurgents and a center of
propaganda against allied forces" without bringing to light the
kernel of such propaganda: doctor's reports of US military use of
cluster bombs, shooting of ambulances and civilians, and related war
crimes."
