Weird stuff you find on the Net: Michael Moore is really a CIA asset.

After supporting former NATO General Wesley Clarke’s failed bid for presidential nomination, Moore went onto to interview Nicholas Berg.
Moore has refused to disclose the contents of that interview but has revealed that he filmed US soldiers abusing Iraqi prisoners long before the Abu Ghraib abuses were made public.

Now just think about that for a moment. Moore actually filmed US soldiers abusing Iraqi prisoners but said nothing. Then, after the storm over prisoner abuse broke (and maybe just in time to edit in such sequences for the film’s debut?) he admits the he knew about the abuse all along, but thought that he would be accused of exploiting it to publicise his film.

<snip>

It just doesn't sound right – unless Moore is actually working for one of the covert agencies. Who else could put him onto Nicholas Berg, a virtually unknown political activist, who was being questioned and held by US military intelligence? And where did Moore, a supposed political “radical”, get the security clearance to film Iraqi prisoners being interrogated in a high security environment?

1. On a stretch
Julia Child was an asset, too.

3. except sitting here in amarillo, 6 months into war, i saw signs
of abuse and theft and arrogance on americans military's part and the anger they had for the iraqi people knowing this wasnt condusive to creating peace. 6 months into it.

saw earlier but within 6 months was obvious thru out, the mood of the soldiers.

this was there for us to see if we chose. and if i could see sittin here in the middle of no where, surely it was there for military and politicians

4. Hmmm... I wouldn't put it past the CIA...
...to have put Moore in a position to get some good stuff. Or hand it to him on a plate.

They've been working on this issue for a long time!
