A group of American anti-war demonstrators who came to Iraq with Japanese human shield volunteers made it across the border today with 14 hours of uncensored video, all shot without Iraqi government minders present. Kenneth Joseph, a young American pastor with the Assyrian Church of the East, told UPI the trip "had shocked me back to reality." Some of the Iraqis he interviewed on camera "told me they would commit suicide if American bombing didn't start. They were willing to see their homes demolished to gain their freedom from Saddam's bloody tyranny. They convinced me that Saddam was a monster the likes of which the world had not seen since Stalin and Hitler. He and his sons are sick sadists. Their tales of slow torture and killing made me ill, such as people put in a huge shredder for plastic products, feet first so they could hear their screams as bodies got chewed up from foot to head."

Nothing like like a little dose of reality to counter all the garbage spewed by the left-wing media.

Too bad these other 5th columnists can't go to Iraq to see reality.

I heard about this on the radio a bit ago but I didn't get the guy's name.
Thanks for the great info.

Sadly, I suppose this won't be posted on the anti-war web sites - I won't hold my breath.

Stunning. I hope he gets the message out.

Probably never see this from Blather, Jennings, Brokejaw, et all.

But the truth is independent in its own sphere and it will get out.

... those sorry sick bastards. Let's roll to Baghdad!

Just mentioned on The Dom Giordano Show on 1210 AM WPHT in Philadelphia. Besides his show, who wants to bet this will be one of the only places we will hear it? Will we hear it on ABC? NBC? The New York Times?

Too bad these other 5th columnists can't go to Iraq to see reality.

And worse yet that their fellow 5th columnists in the media won't give this the top billing they give the anti-war creeps.

Finally, a dose of reality!

Wow....at least some people are willing to face reality.
My bet is many in the Hollyweird crowd and Bush haters wouldn't change their minds no matter what...

Your link is to a completely different story.

So true. This isn't about war at all. It's about a visceral hatred for Western Civilization in general, and for its symbols (the USA), and defenders (Bush and Blair).
