Another excellent article John Pilger in the Mirror today with front page title Mourn on the fourth of July

It is worth buying for once the Daily Mirror today. There is an excellent 3 page article by J. Pilger. If the Mirror continues with articles like this, it means that the public opinion againts US policies here in Britain is shifting. This is I think the thirth time the Mirror is opening its pager to Pilger and it appears by far the most leftwing maistream newspaper, more left than the Guardian for sure. (Has anyone noticed the quality of the Guardian it is going down, sometimes you feel like you are reading a rightwing newspaper) OK, the rest of the Daily Mirror, is all soap rubbish, advestising and sports. But I still think that we should encourage them, by buying it when they publish front pages, like the one today.

The Guardian are lost in a liberal fog, whereas the Mirror actually have the bottle to print Pilger's anti-war stuff. Gutsy tabloid over spineless broadsheet any day!

Very good article by John Pilger.It makes a change from the usual right wing tosh.However i wonder how many readers will take it all in and realy understand the serious nature of what is taking place.World dominance is the one and only aim of Bush and his administration backed by Blair and Hoon.I showed the pictures of the dead children in Pilgers article to my eleven year old son and explained the consequencies of US foreign policy to him.I think that the US and British actions taking place in Afghanistan at present should be explained and discussed with all school children of my sons age throught the country.However when i listen to comments by certain adults , such as this is not news and this is nothing to do with this country anyway i begin to despair.The only topic of interest to these sad and moronic adults appears to be , the cutting of grass , cleaning of motor cars , do-it-yourself , and going shopping.Any conversation away from these brain dead activities and trivialities, most people become dis-interested and completely illinformed.
