The United States added, “Of course, that only applies to journalists who aren’t working for the terrarists. You’re either with us or ag’in us.”

The United States, Britain, and France today publicly pledged to “take all necessary steps to ensure the safety of journalists in war zones.”

How exactly do they plan on doing this? By physically guarding the journalists?

One of the big differences between the media in the Vietnam and the media today in the Middle East (or so I’ve noticed in documentaries, as I’m only 25 years old) is that the journalists in Vietnam were not embedded with the military. They took pictures of the situation without the supervision of the United States government, hence the outrage when the American people saw the results.

The Bush Administration has learned a lesson since Vietnam. If they want to keep the American people from rising up, they need to make sure we don’t really see what’s going on.

The reporting now only consists of reporters in the Green Zone and around United States troops. How often do we see reports from an unguarded Iraqi street?

No one ever said journalism is easy, and the crime of killing a journalist should be prosecuted with the harshest of penalties, but it is a problem that needs to be solved using justice. I fear that this pledge means that there will be further shielding of the media from what is going on outside of Bush Administration-approved zones.

UNITED NATIONS (AFP) – The United States on Friday withdrew a resolution it had presented to the UN Security Council endorsing the Annapolis conference relaunch of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, said a diplomat close to the Security Council.
