Default Lining up Syria, North Korea or you?

Hi,

I saw this story on SBS evening news on the 21/10/07.
http://www.worldnewsaustralia.com.au...40847&region=6

From a propoganda perspective this story was a classic because all the footage was virtual. There was no actual evidence produced except heresay from government bodies. Instead what we got were computer generated pictures presented as news.

Regardless of the truth, and yes the claim may be true. The response seemed quite bizarre. Lets get this bit right. The American's did not attack? The Israeli's did attack! The North Koreans were involved? Hmmmmm very strange.

Fascinating story.

cheers Fg7

"It was unmistakable what it was going to be. No doubt in my mind," ABC quoted the official as saying.
