Robert Fisk (The Independent) : Don't Say We Were Not Warned About This Mess
An American commentator, Rosie DiManno, wrote this week that in Iraq "There's also the other cost, the one measured in human lives... one American a day slain since Bush declared the major fighting over." Note here how the blood of Iraqis--whom we were so desperate to liberate six months ago--has disappeared from the narrative. Up to 20 innocent Iraqi civilians a day are now believed to be dying--in murders, revenge killings, at US checkpoints--and yet they no longer count.C'est ce que l'on pourrait appeler le véritable Syndrome du Viêt-Nam.
