McClatchy Washington Bureau | 08/17/2007 | Saddam's daughter facing terrorism charges

McClatchy Washington Bureau | 08/17/2007 | Saddam's daughter facing terrorism charges: This article talks about Raghad Hussein, Saddam’s daughter leading the Iraq resistance. i have a problem with naming names. One goes like this, "Hussein is believed to be living in Amman, Jordan, as a guest of King Abdullah II" who is Hussein? Did the writer meant Raghad Saddam? Then, it should be read Raghad Saddam, not Hussein! Why do western (almost all) journalist give wrong names to people? why do they consider non western women too called by their husband “LAST NAME” IN THIS CASE THEY CALL Raghad BY HER GRAND FATHERS NAME! THERE IS NO SUCH A THING AS LAST NAME IN IRAQ OR ETHIOPIA OR AFRICA!
THIS IS HOW NAMES CALLED:
MY NAME IS ABUBEKER MY FATHER NAME IS MUSSA MY GRANDFATHER NAME IS USMAN. THEREFORE I AM ABUBEKER MUSSA! CLEAR! I AM neither MUSSA NOR USMAN, I AM ABUBEKER! I AM SICK OF THIS STUPIDITY! GET IT RIGHT! EVEN THE SO CALLED MIDDLE EAST EXPERT JUAN CALL KNOW NOT, ERE IS NO SUCH A THING AS A “LAST NAME” GET IT RIGHT YOU KILLERS!

Worse yet, the four were allotted separate recess hours and were driven to and from school separately. Such action has been labeled by observers as “apartheid.”"

  1 Million Dead in Iraq? 6 Reasons the Media Hide the True Human Toll of War -- And Why We Let Them    :      Information Clearing House: ICH By John Tirman July 20, 2011 "Alternet" - - As the U.S. war in Iraq winds down, we are entering a familiar phase, the season of forgetting—forgetting the harsh realities of the war. Mostly we forget the victims of the war, the Iraqi civilians whose lives and society have been devastated by eight years of armed conflict. The act of forgetting is a social and political act, abetted by the American news media. Throughout the war, but especially now, the minimal news we get from Iraq consistently devalues the death toll of Iraqi civilians. Why?
