MEDIA:
Pushing the Media Create a dramatic gesture and claim every word you're saying is nothing but the truth. Tell the world that people in Iraq destroy the old symbols. Just stage the fall of a small statue with hundreds of cameras pointing at a G.I. covering Hussein's bronze-face with an american flag. Give'em an image and everyone thinks the war is over. Donald Rumsfeld compared today's pictures on TV with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of the Cold War. Historic day, bla-bla. Everything has to be dramatic. Cheney made fun of the armchair-generals and we're only missing a confetti-parade like in the finals of Episode One. See you next war, man. So, boys, you've had your fun, you destroyed the infrastructure of an entire country and it looks like you killed enough people now. But, by the way, this campaign was against the laws we had agreed on and here's the way to the international court for war criminals. That's the way it should work, but it doesn't. We understand. You even killed a few members of the international media to prove your point. Strongest one there is, ok. For some folks this means withdrawing from the action. The rest of us is ready to go on. We're expecting your orders. What do you want the media to promote next? It's okay. We're not gonna say a word. You have conquered reality with the weapons of entertainment and we love it. We always loved it. Let's create a new image for the new führer, eh, King George II. No more kissy lips. It simply looks stupid. Can't he learn from Henry Kissinger? He's a war criminal and he received the nobel-price for peace at the same time. Let's go back in time all the way. Who's gonna play McCarthy?
