i say all media is propaganda, all media has a motive, some very subtle some very strong, but as long as there are some facts shown, thats all i need to know, ill make up me own mind about it

@fop221 I agree with you 100%, Maurice Bishop was a true leader who had the interest of the people at heart. As a brother in America I can honestly say "we" are not use to that kind of selfless leadership. Salaam (peace to everyone)

you might say this is propoganda, but if you live in the Latin america or the Caribbean, you know that the CIA have committed many atrocities against the poor and their governments in these countries; love live Maurice: another like you will live again.
