london 2

is it news when 3 bombs in baghdad kill 50 people?
are we shown in our living rooms the pain of their families?
are the victims interviewed in their hospital beds?

no

the allied attacks on iraq
have killed at least 22 000 people

at least 400 times as many
as have died in london

the news is mute on this
and makes us feel as if
the allies in iraq
are fighting the good fight

and that such events as those in london
demonstrate the need for the war in iraq

clearly the opposite is true
were it not for the invasion of iraq
those bombs would not have gone off

george bush says
we will bring them to justice
like osama no doubt
