"Bush's war", a chatroom against Bush
The French daily L'Humanite, historicaly linked to the French Communist Party, give on this website, www.humanite.presse.fr an interesting chatroom about the war in Iraq, called "La guerre de Bush", "Bush's war".
The readers can take position in deferent debates about the war, of course, but also about the elections and the constitution in Iraq, and every subject linked to the travels of George W. Bush.
It is hard to find someone in this chatroom to defend Mr. Bush. For example, after the liberation of the Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena, during which an Italian agent was killed by the GI'S, a reader wrote :
"Bush declares ABSURD the reaction of the Italian public opinion. What would be absurd would be not to include/understand the aggressiveness of Bush against the journalists, and not to include/understand the eagerness of the GI'S to fire on a supposed "communist = terrorist." Giuliana had all the marks of the WITCH TO KILL: She was a witness of the electoral masquerade [in Iraq ]. She was a journalist. She was communist. While shoting on her they killed an heroic Italian soldier, and they also destroyed Berlusconi's illusion concerning an alleged American's humanism."
This chat is an interesting way to take a look at the point of view of left wing voters close to the French Communist Party. Probably not the most famous chatroom, but an official one, monitored by a serious newspaper.
