Alleged Chemical Weapons Use Picked Up By US Media
So far it is only one media outlet that I have found, but it's a start.
The Christian Science Monitor is reportingAn Italian state-run TV documentary says yes, a charge the US calls 'disinformation.' By Tom Regan | csmonitor.com RAI, the all news state-run satellite channel in Italy, aired a documentary Tuesday that accused the United States of using chemical weapons against the civilian population during a November 2004 bombardment of Fallujah. AKI, the Italian news agency, reports that the documentary, entitled "Fallujah: The Hidden Massacre" and aired on the first aniversary of the assault on insurgents in Fallujah, includes interviews with former US soldiers and with residents of Fallujah who say that during the assault on the city the US military used the chemical white phosphorus.This is a good sign, because it means the information is making its' way (even if slowly), to the American people. However, I will feel much better when I see it on CNN, MSNBC cable outlets and on the front pages and in editorial sections of the top newspapers in the country. I am sure you noticed I didn't include "Faux" News. Well IF they cover it at all you can pretty well be assured it will be in a disparaging way to the foreign press who broke the story rather than demanding an investigation. |

The Christian Science Monitor is one of the top newspapers in the country and has been for over a century. But, who knows whether the Italian documentary is accurate or not. I hope that these stories are not true.
