Newspeak and the fog of war

Aussie humorist/blogger TimBlair tells us how to translate newspeak...one example:

Oil, n. Highly prized fossil-derived fuel resource behind all current US policies, from closeness to oil-rich Israel to the notorious invasion of oil-rich Canada. ...

And Lileks has the irony of the day quote:

"Recent anti-Israel protests remind us again of our era's peculiar alliance: The most violent, intolerant, militantly religious movement in modern times has the peace movement on its side...
....In London, the woolly-minded pawns marched beneath banners that said "We are all Hizbullah." Really? Is that why there's a rocket launcher at my kid's day care?

The last is quite sad, because, as both PM Harper and General MacKenzie pointed out, they are using UN observation posts to hide in...and the PM is mad that the UN didn't allow the soldiers to quit their post.

Finally, there was an inflammatory claim a few days ago that by a doctor who saw dehydrated blackened bodies, and held a press conference that "Israel" is using chemical weapons. The story has changed three times in three days..probably because someone noticed the description didn't correspond to death from nerve or mustard gas...the claims is now phosphorus, but it doesn't fit that either....but it's all over the conspiracy sites and the Arab news...

The final descriptions, noting that the bodies were shrunken with black skin and still had hair intact, hints at the real cause: heat without oxygen...
I've actually seen bodies like this: in civilian fires where someone was upstairs in a closed room and died of intense heat. I haven't seen shrunken bodies, but the description fits the fire shrunken corpses inside bomb shelters in Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse Five...

Newspeak anyone?
