Sins of omission, sins of comission.
Sometimes it's what you don't tell.
So I'm hearing and reading this morning about this testimony by Kahlid Sheik Mohammed whose job it is to resurrect the images of 9-11.
He's a TALKER, isn't he?
Not in public of course.
And he might have been tortured in the past.
But that doesn't affect what he (reportedly) says today.
[cough]
And you lovingly to repeat his tales, his plans for other of our famous landmarks, certain words repeated, your (NPR) focus on child killing, images resurrected that recall the embedded horror in the back of the mind of every soccer mom as she drops her kids at the corner to catch the schoolbus.
But, just a snag in the back of my mind... why isn't it ever being said or printed:
what country does this guy come from?
Is he Yemeni? Is he Pakistani? Is he a Saudi? Is he a KUWAITI?
But but but those are our allies.
And we invaded Iraq, killing 600,000 people to fight the terrorists... where?
IRAQ!!! Someone buy the Pentagon a map!
AP, you mention the nationalities of his cohorts, but not his.
I'm just saying highly paid professionals should be better editors, or portray themselves more rightly, as editorialists.
And speaking of your editorializing, why did you chose the hypothetical targets you chose to reveal? The British newspapers have a much more complete and JUICY list.
Hey, did I say WE KILLED 600,000 recently in a country our President invaded by mistake (because it COULDn't have been by deceit)? And did you give a figure on KSM's body count?
WHO is the BIGGER TERRORIST?
