Subject: Reality TV - Iraqi Style
Written By: Mushroom on 04/05/05 at 11:47 am
It seems that Iraq has jumped on board the "Reality TV" bandwagon. However, instead of emulating the newer trend of shows like "Big Brother", "American Idol" and "Survivor", they are going to the roots, a show very much like "Cops".
The new hit is a show called "Terror in the Hands of Justice". It features interviews of captured terrorists, and the victims of terror attacks. Airing on the government run Al-Iraqiya TV, it was in response to the large number of Iraqi citizens that do not believe that these terrorists even exist.
While many people are protesting this show, there is no doubt that a lot of people in the region are paying very close attention. Hopefully, this will help show how evil these terrorists really are.

interesting......I'm sure there will be dissenters who will say that it's all made up, though ::)
Of course. Just as there are people who believe that the Apollo moon landings are fake, that the Government has a cure for AIDS that it is keeping secret, and that Computers are really built from alien technology.
I will not even mention the Flat Earthers. ::)
