Again, What is IraqSlogger?

For­mer CNN News Chief To Launch ‘IraqS­log­ger’ Site

Many Iraqi Blog­gers stopped talk­ing pol­i­tics, oth­ers dis­abled the com­ments (even if they write about some pri­vate mat­ters).

In total, all Iraqi Blogs are/were hijacked by dark, under­world of CIA and other neo­cons asso­ci­a­tions, and Iraqs­log­ger is one another step in the same direc­tion, to silence the rest of the Iraqi Bloggers.

More than a year ago Jihad Al-Khazin Chief Edi­tor of Al-Hayat wrote series arti­cles [about 7 article..translated to Eng­lish also] about Arab Blogs, his last words are:

The Blogs hosted by some sus­pi­cious con­ser­v­a­tive Amer­i­can asso­ci­a­tions sup­ports the war in Iraq and Afghanistan will lose their truth­ful­ness and credibility,

I received this email from indigo [I asked the per­mis­sion to pub­lish it, Thank you indigo], and it com­pletes Mr. Khazin sen­tence, explain­ing more about iraqslogger.

(The name appar­ently derives from a Rums­feld quote, that the war in Iraq is “a long, hard slog.”) That domain name is reg­is­tered to Jor­dan Eason, CEO of Prae­dict and a for­mer news edi­tor with CNN, who was sacked after say­ing that the mil­i­tary tar­geted journalists.

My instinct is that this site is:

(a)part of Eason’s “reha­bil­i­ta­tion” with the Repub­li­cans and (b) part of the US government’s long-term scheme to put Sun­nis back in charge in Iraq under US con­trol to appease Saudi Ara­bia (Sunni) and keep Iran (Shia) out and con­trol the oil.

I also have a big prob­lem with a lot of this web site’s assump­tions, start­ing with call­ing the inva­sion of Iraq a “war”. War was never declared, and Iraq was/is a sov­er­eign coun­try that was no threat at all to the West.
