-Caveat Lector-
For more than a week we've been shown images of Baghdad under a pall of smoke that, we've been told, was due to trenches of oil set afire by Saddam s forces as a protective measure... Yet for the past day and a half we've also been shown images that, we've been told, show Coalition forces on the outskirts of Baghdad (and indeed at this very moment Fox New's embedded journalist is reporting live that the unit he is with is actually IN Baghdad, altho it isn't being explained why this 'live' report is showing "Baghdad" in the daytime when it is now well past sunset there)... Yet in these reports from Coalition forces which are ostensibly in and/or around Baghdad, the only smoke seen is limited to individual burning trucks or tanks; the sky itself is blue, remarkably blue considering the grey haze we've been seeing in Baghdad the past week... Indeed, in the video from Iraqui TV yesterday purporting to show Saddam out and about in Baghdad greeting residents, shaking hands, kissing babies, the sky in the background is a light grey.... Yet at the very same time we were being shown videos purporting to be of Coalition forces fighting on the highway to Baghdad from the airport, a trip of 12 miles or less -- and all those videos showed a bright blue sky; it doesn't matter whether the Iraqui TV report showing "Saddam" really IS Saddam, the point is that the sky where they filmed the event was grey, and yet just a few miles away (so we were told) the sky was not only bright blue there was no general grey haze of smoke to be seen anywhere, even on the horizon (notably no shots showing greater metropolitan Baghdad in the background were shown, either)... The live report Fox is currently broadcasting of their embedded reporter who just claimed to be IN Baghdad also shows a bright blue sky without a cloud -- water vapor or smoke -- anywhere in the sky... So what happened to all those burning oil trenches? How come not one video or still photo purporting to show Coalition forces in or just outside Baghdad shows a pall of smoke from these trenches which have been burning for more than a week? Did these fires somehow become extinguished all at once? Or could it be that the Coalition forces purportedly at Baghdad really are NOT at Baghdad?
