Iraqi citizens

Surrounding the statue of Saddam in the center of Baghdad. Jumping up and down, throwing rocks, encouraging U.S. soldiers to pull it down. The crowd grows with every passing moment. You probably WON'T see this on the BBC OR Arab TV.

speaking to a Sky News reporter in broken English:

Sky News: What do you think of these Marines?

citizen: (smiling)  Safety, they don't hurt anyone.

And the crowd continues to grow with each passing moment. Soldiers anxiously and carefully stand guard and scan the area to protect innocent civilians from possible snipers and other dangers. Reporters swarm the area interviewing citizens and soldiers.

Probably to keep from getting scooped. I figure when British sailors tell their commanders they don't want the BBC on their ship because they feel BBC stands for Baghdad Broadcasting Company, something isn't right. Of course, you're free to think what you will.
