How can Robert Fisk and Patrick Cockburn remain silent while their newspaper so shamefully participate to this genocide with lies and propaganda? How can all the professional, decent journalists at the Independent, the Guardian, the BBC and all over the media remain silent while their work is used to carry on this bloodbath?...

How can Robert Fisk, Patrick Cockburn and colleagues remain silent?
Gabriele Zamparini, The Cat's Dream
March 16, 2008
The state-corporate media keep deceiving you. While celebrating five years of media failure with books, articles, comments, TV and radio shows and happy birthday cakes, the same media are hiding the Iraq genocide in the most dreadful way.
Here is today's Independent: Iraq: Who won the war?
Not the 90,000 Iraqi civilians or the 4,200 US and UK troops killed since 2003. The big winners are the money men who have made billions. Raymond Whitaker and Stephen Foley report
The Independent
Sunday, 16 March 2008
(...) So, five years on, who can be said to have won the war? Certainly not Iraqi civilians, at least 90,000 of whom have died violently since 2003, at the most conservative estimate. Other studies have multiplied that figure by five or six. How can Robert Fisk and Patrick Cockburn remain silent while their newspaper so shamefully participate to this genocide with lies and propaganda? How can all the professional, decent journalists at the Independent, the Guardian, the BBC and all over the media remain silent while their work is used to carry on this bloodbath?
Please, support a call for a media investigation over the issue of Iraq mortality estimates.
