THOMAS WAKLEY WOULD BE ASHAMED

In 1823 Thomas Wakley founded the "Lancet"magazine to be an independent journal about medical science, but that was independent of the medical or scientific community. What they did today would make him hang his head in shame!
the Lancet published an article proclaiming that since the U.S. invaded Iraq 650,000 Iraqi civilians have been killed. This British leftist journal based its conclusions on a survey their people did of 1899 households and 12,800 people. This survey group had 628 people killed in the period from 2003 to 2006. From this number they extrapolated that in all of iraq, 650,000 people were killed.
This is the same leftist run journal that is well known for its article on coronary artery treatment,"Increasing burden of treatment in the acute coronary syndrome. Is it justified." Another equally revealing article was "debating intelligent design." Hardly a medical subject. More appropriate for a teological discussion."Evidence of bias against the diseases of poverty"

is an example of their leftist bent.

None of the above references can be found in theU.S. print media nor the european media. Just the bald face leftist bias which is common place as we get closer to mid-term elections.

JURISPRUDENCE TURNED LUDICROUS

The travesty that is happening in an Iraq court room where the trial of Saddam Hussein drags on is more circus than trial.At least four times in the recent months Saddam has caused such a disruption that the judge has removed him and the court has been recessed.
during this approximate time span 14 American servicemen have been tried, found guilty and sentenced. Their convictions were for contributing to the death of an Iraqi. Their sentences range from life in prison at hard labor to dishonorable discharge. Meanwhile the man known for committing genocide against the Kurds with poison gas, and the torture and murder of only God knows how many of his own populace , is making a circus out of what should be a speedy trial for this "killer".
How long will this charade go on? The longer it lasts the more embolden his supports become. The "butcher of Baghdad" should have been convicted and sentenced long ago.Yet the media in the U.S. never mentions this in their reports. If only they were as concerned about a speedy trial for this international criminal as they are those involved in abu grab prison incident!
