Humanitarian Crisis in Iraq: Statements.
I saw a sickening clip on television very recently involving the notion of journalists being "embedded". Some are embedded with the coalition forces in distributing humanitarian aid, and when it was rejected, there was the appalling feeling that these people were throwing aid at the Iraqis as if this were the way to overcome rejection by them. The journalists were reflecting that view, and that nauseated me when I saw it on television. I felt it was not correct.
