The Sun - these people are dangerous!

Here is a quote from the Sun the warmongering idiots and fools who want to drag us into World War Three "A MILLION Britons had a jolly day out on the anti-war march.
It was like a carnival without the costumes. But let’s not get carried away. Fifty-eight million other Brits DIDN’T march on London. They weren’t suckered by has-beens like Tony Benn or never-will-be Charles Kennedy. The reality is, the big march changes nothing. Tony Blair on Saturday set out indisputable moral and political arguments. We’ve said many times that no sane person wants war. But what do the wobblers suggest the world does about Saddam Hussein?"

People like the Sun are putting out the governments vile propaganda that war is the only solution and that we must all support war even though war will bring enormous death and destruction onto one of the poorest peoples on earth! Aswell as ignoring the fact that the coming war is all about oil and US power!
Aswell as ignoring that fact that the world is full of brutal dictators nearly all backed and armed by western countries! We can do something about these dangerous fools how about naming and shaming their staff! We can publish the names and addresses of these warmongers on the internet. These people are worse than Nazis its high time we did something about them!

( http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,5-2003062483,00.html) article.
This is the same newspaper that attempted to villify Paxman for his amusing use of the word poodle by suggesting he was reducing the debate to primary school level, then proceeded to refer to Belgiums recent stance by saying the Belgian PM was, to quote, 'worried about chocolate shortage'.
It's always a good newspaper to check out if you feel a need to get really angry about the oncoming war...

but people seem to be resisting the corporate propaganda. even though all papers except the mirror are pro-war, the public is still overwhelmingly against it. In the long run I think this could be the start of something good in UK politics.

We would not have the problem of Saddam if the British, US and Russia, to name a few had not armed him in the first place.
The only dangerous people here work at the Sun.
The word of our times is hypocrisy and the Sun knows that word better than most Politicians.
And can you imagine what a good war will do for sales!

__its just, that print media isnt anymore. Its the ressource-consumer(yes, guns are products) Industry that lay upon the journalistic Affair its deadly costume for this, indeed carnival, or animal farm.
the sun asks, what to do? The int. Justice Court could do, if the fairy "Biedermann" Right-conserv-nationalist. Falks would let it be. The what is the plan of the pro war accountants? So you wont let the old europe not on the table. What table? We dont profit nor want your economic international interest be raged out with destruction of goods, work and some soldiers lifes.
progress beyond the general saint legitimacy of mens agressivity, play online multiplayer games, but let the people be free; Politicians, if there are some left at all.

What would i do?

All i know is (having been in a war from the dirty end)is that things go to shit pretty quick.The possibility for this particular shit getting very much out of control is enormous. War on this particular occassion is not the answer.Yes Saddam tortures people but so do other leaders that we actually support or turn a blind eye to.I for one do not percieve him as a threat to his neighbors or my country. I don't see our Goverment talking about attacking Zimbabwe. Maybe we should attack Russia for killing and torturing civilians in Chechnya.The list is to long to go into right now. We can't solve all the problems of the world (Mankind is a *^%"*! up race) As for Iraq i would keep on his case so he can't move one way or the other. Try and get more personell (of any kind) into the country
Any way whats the rush? If the people who are pro war? and of enlistment age i sincerely hope they will support our leaders and join the fight, even if you dont'see action in Iraq there will be plenty more to come.Problems are harder to solve the second and third time around if lies, deceit and self interest were paramount the first time around!

Saddam is only one part of a big picture. Honesty can have startling results.

What are we going to do about the Sun? and Blair? Regime change begins at home!
STOP NYC INc.

Realisticly the US and the UK governments want the oil etc, but if they really want to take out Saddam, well there are dozens of CIA agents inthe area capable of doing the job. It only takes one bullet, not a shitload of bombs.
Only one person dies instead of 1 million +
(I'm not suggesting that they SHOULD do this, but come on, it's a lot cleaner yeah?)

No they're not. The Sun has a terrible record of whipping up racism and hatred of the marginalised generally, and so they bear a share of responsibility for creating a mood that allows racist murders at home and racist wars abroad.
But they haven't systematically killed ten million people in death camps, nor have they advocated doing so. So let's not make the rather silly claim that they're 'worse than Nazis'. Especially when real Nazis (the BNP) are organising and need to be organised against.
