Propaganda Olímpica

A selecção olímpica portuguesa de futebol, com o seu feito de ontem, conseguiu entrar na agenda política norte-americana.

No blog do símio George W. pode ler-se:

"Iraq Upsets Portugal in Olympic Soccer
When the Olympics open this week, the newly free Iraqi people will be proudly represented by a 25-member Olympic team. Iraq won its first victory today, with a 4-2 soccer upset of medal contender Portugal in a preliminary match. We'd like to congratulate the world's newest free nation on this stunning victory.

Iraq is competing in the Olympics for the first time since 1988. Under the old regime, Iraqi soccer players were regularly tortured and terrorized by Saddam Hussein's son, Uday. This profile from the Christian Science Monitor gives a good sense of just how far the team has come in such a short time."

Gggggrrrrrr!!!...
