Iraqis: McCain Market Visit Simply 'Propaganda'
Tuesday, April 03, 2007
BAGHDAD — Iraqis in Baghdad said Tuesday that U.S. Sen. John McCain's account of a heavily guarded visit to a central market did not represent the current reality in the capital, with one calling it "propaganda."
Jaafar Moussa Thamir, a 42-year-old who sells electrical appliances at the Shorja market that the Republican congressmen visited on Sunday, said the Republican congressional delegation greeted some fellow vendors with Arabic phrases but he was not impressed.
"They were just making fun of us and paid this visit just for their own interests," he said. "Do they think that when they come and speak few Arabic words in a very bad manner it will make us love them? This country and its society have been destroyed because of them and I hope that they realized that during this visit."
Thamir said "about 150 U.S. soldiers and 20 humvees" accompanied the McCain delegation.
yeah, and mccain then said that it was all peaceful in iraq..... something like "the market is nice and safe"....
And had any one senator stood up and backed the Black Electoral Caucus (who disapproved to the results and its congressmen said so) than there would have been a forced recount. And yes, when you look at the actual votes tallied, Gore did win, and by a considerable margin - CNN says 80,000 votes.Quote:

the same senators have no problem standing up and demanding democracy for other countries.Quote:
