“I [believe] that journalism, particularly television journalism, by its failure to show the real horror of war, has become a lethal weapon, supporting governments that want to go to war.”

— Robert Fisk

Already, in just three years, this occupation has claimed the lives of more than 92 journalists and support workers—more than during the whole of the Vietnam War.

Why?

And WHO is hiding the truth about Iraq?

The answers lie just beyond the popular reasons why we fight.

[GE Holdings include] TV Stations: Fourteen NBC television stations - WVTM (Birmingham, AL), KXAS (Dallas, TX), WMAQ (Chicago, IL), WCMH (Columbus, OH), WVIT (Hartford, CT), KNBC (Los Angeles, CA), WTVJ (Miami, FL), WNBC (New York, NY), WCAU (Philadelphia, PA), WJAR (Providence, RI), WNCN (Raleigh, NC), KNSD (San Diego, CA), WRC (Washington, DC), KNTV (San Jose, CA) - as well as 14 local Telemundo stations

Cable: Telemundo, Bravo, CNBC, MSNBC (partial ownership, with Microsoft), mun2, Sci-Fi Channel, TRIO, USA Network, CNBC Europe, CNBC Asia-Pacific, Telemundo Internacional, NBC Europe, plus 8 other channels in Europe and Latin America under the Sci-Fi, 13th Street, Studio Universal, and USA brands

Military Production: Manufactures engines for the F-16 Fighter jet, Abrams tank, Apache helicopter, U2 Bomber, Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV), A-10 aircraft, and numerous military equipment including planes, helicopters, tanks, and more.

The answers are, and always have been, hidden in plain sight.
