Wars and wars within wars

The near civil war in Lebanon is but one further consequence of the depraved US 2003 attack on Iraq. Lenin thinks the whole picture is being exaggerated. But if things turn nasty at least we will be prepared for the propaganda news onslaught. Hizbollah will be presented as the bad guys in the media and future western action as regrettable but, alas, necessary. As far as the decents are concerned, any noises left that criticise the US or 'support' the Shia forces (who it seems are bound up with unions and others protesting about price hikes) will be caricatured as self-loathing islamofascists terrorists.

Their words are as ugly as the policies they are embedded in.
