[YOUR EDITOR thought there was something odd about those TV stories describing the removal of the Saddam statue. Why had this spontaneous crowd gathered only on one side of the statue? Why no long shots? And why were those people in the background going about their urban business as though nothing was happening? DC Indymedia has the answer.]
DC INDY MEDIA - The up-close action video of the statue being destroyed is broadcast around the world as proof of a massive uprising. Still photos grabbed off of Reuters show a long-shot view of Fardus Square... It's empty save for the U.S. Marines, the international press, and a small handful of Iraqis. There are no more than 200 people in the square at best. The Marines have the square sealed off and guarded by tanks. A U.S. mechanized vehicle is used to pull the statue of Saddam from it's base. The entire event is being hailed as an equivalent of the Berlin Wall falling... but even a quick glance of the long-shot photo shows something more akin to a carefully constructed media event tailored for the television cameras.
