I love America, I really do, but this is going beyond all reasonable standards for how a democratic country founded on some of humanity's best ideals is supposed to act.

There seems to be no attempt to hide the propaganda, indicating a supreme contempt for the discerning facilities of the American people and other peoples of the world.
I hope he survives long enough to bring us some first hand information. The Pentagon simplifies media relations as John Lettice of The Register reports:
Should war in the Gulf commence, the Pentagon proposes to take radical new steps in media relations - 'unauthorised' journalists will be shot at.

although i'm canadian, we seem to have some of the best seats to watch the deterioration of human rights in the US here (of course, it's not just 'human rights' or 'freedom of speech' anymore, it's 'homeland security'). quite sad. and canada seems to start having cravings for watered-down policies like that (federal monitoring of digital communications, sniffers galore, is in the works for this year).
