To Awaken The American People (Press Briefing
As the rhetorical war heats up and the United States government attempts to use the media to exploit patriotic feelings aimed at generating public support for an attack on Iraq, Minister Farrakhan speaks for the voiceless in pointing out that all should look carefully into the information being passed on as truth by President George W. Bush, Vice-President Dick Cheney, General Colin Powell and British Prime Minister Tony Blair. Minister Farrakhan tells the media that was present and those who would listen to their written and recorder words that they are being fed half-truths and in many cases outright lies involving Saddam Hussein and the situation in Iraq. |
