But we didn’t see, in real time, what the rest of the world saw - what shocked some and amused others. No. Our media decided that Americans were not grown-up enough to see it all, so they censored it for our own good. But was it for our own good?

Excellent post. Where is this footage? Is it on the web? To the lefties credit they know that if this footage is shown to the American public the question of going to war against Sadam and others would be a foregone conclusion and so by preventing its airing they probably figure they can buy time and hope the American publics anger subsides and allow the UN to dictate what action is appropriate.

"Where is this footage? Is it on the web?"

Its on the web, or was. Much of what I have I downloaded in the weeks after the event. I've searched since then and have not been able to relocate much of it. I a few cases there were brief glimpses on TV (mostly cable) that were never repeated.

A good example is the cheering Palis. That aired, as far as I know, on one day only and then was squashed by the networks after Arafat threatened everyone (footage of the fat woman we see only in stills now). There were some things I did not download at the time that I now wish I had.

If you want to send my your private e-mail I will send you what I have. But I warn you - it's not easy to look at.
