Saddam Hussein - A Uniter Not a Divider (at least according to CNN)

I was going to say that this was unbelieveble but sadly - its very believable:

...For example, during CNN's coverage of the election Christiane Amanpour got off on a riff about a Sunni she had met who was opposed to the new constitution.

"Never before did we talk about Sunni, Shia, Kurd," Amanpour directly quoted the man as saying without referring to a tape or any notes. "For many, many years, despite our difficulties, despite the oppression under Saddam Hussein, Iraqis never really talked about their ethnic differences. They were Iraqis first and foremost."

Then without a clear line separating the two -- "our" somehow became "their" in a single sentence -- Amanpour continued on with her analysis.

"Many people are very concerned, they say, that it is only since the war that these differences have reared their very ugly heads," she said, adding moments later, "People are very, very concerned about the possibility that somehow in the future their country will lose its unity and will be fragmented."

The Iraqi Kurds who died in mass graves spin at this spinning.
