if I have to hear one more expression of tacit sympathy from the exact same people who damned her as a shameful racist two years ago, I might just get very angry.You might get the impression that I'm not terribly upset at Goody's death. Well, it all seems a bit absurd to me. 1500 people die daily in occupied Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine, a third of them under the age of 5. Any sadness or remorse for these forgotten people, Gordon?

At fucking last, I share your sentiment.
Speaking of Afghanistan and Iraq especially, you wonder if these wars are actually taking place the abysmal coverage they get or rather news black out. Are we in continous wars like Orwell wrote about in 1984?
I doubt we've arrived at 1984 yet, but certainly there's no real media coverage of Iraq and Afghanistan. Afghanistan particularly is the forgotten war.
