People want reliable sources of news, information and analysis unavailable through mainstream Western sources using propagandists masquerading as journalists.
The entire Western edifice rests on lies. There is no other foundation. Just lies.
This makes truth an enemy. Enemies have to be
suppressed, and thus truth has to be suppressed.
Truth comes from foreign news sources, such as RT, and
from Internet sites, such as this one.
Thus, Washington and its vassals are busy at work
closing down independent media.
Washington and its vassals have redefined propaganda.
Truth is propaganda if it is told by countries, such as Russia and China, that
have independent foreign policies.
Propaganda is truth if told by Washington and its
puppets, such as the EU Observer.
The EU Observer, little doubt following Washington’s
orders, has denounced RT and Sputnik News for “broadcasting fabrications and
hate speech from their bureaus in European Union cities.”
Often I appear on both RT and Sputnik. In my opinion
both are too restrained in their reporting, fearful, of course, of being shut
down, than full truth requires. I have never heard a word of hate speech or
propaganda on either. Washington’s propaganda, perhaps, but not the Russian
government’s.
In other words, the way Washington has the news world
rigged, not even independent news sites can speak completely clearly.
The Western presstitutes have succeeded in creating a
false reality for insouciant Americans and also for much of the European Union
population.
A sizable percentage of these insouciant peoples
believe that Russia invaded Ukranine and that Russia is threatening to invade
the Baltic States and Poland. This belief exists despite all intelligence of
all Western governments reporting that there is no sign of any Russian forces
that would be required for invasion.
The “Russian invasion,” like “Saddam Hussein’s weapons
of mass destruction and al Qaeda connections,” like “Assad of Syria’s use of
chemical weapons against his own people,” like “Iranian nukes,” never existed
but nevertheless became the reality in the Western media. The insouciant
Western peoples believe in non-existent occurrencies.
In other words, just to state the obvious
noncontroversial fact, the Western “news” media is a propaganda ministry from
which no truth emerges.
Thus, the Western World is ruled by propaganda. Truth
is excluded.
Fox “news,”
CNN, the NY Times, Washington Post, and all the rest of the most accomplished
liars in world history, repeat constantly the same lies. For Washington, of
course, and the military/security complex.
War is the only possible outcome of propaganda in
behalf of war. When the irresponsible Western media brings Armageddon to you,
you can thank the New York Times and the rest of the presstitutes for the
destruction of yourself and all your hopes for yourself and your children.
Western major media march to the same drummer –
dutifully regurgitating managed news misinformation garbage, willfully burying
hard truths on issues mattering most.
Alternative sources beholden to truth and full
disclosure operate by different standards – engendering ire among Western
nations wanting their high crimes suppressed – bashing sources revealing them.
The EU Observer (EUO) claims independent credentials
while supporting policies responsible news sources denounce.
Independently reporting hard truths isn’t its long
suit. Its editor, Lisbeth Kirk, is the wife of former Danish European
Parliament member Jens-Peter Bonde. Human Rights Watch’s European and Central
Asian advocacy director Veronika Szente Goldston calls its journalists “the
most in-your-face in Brussels.”
EUO irresponsibly bashed Russia’s Sputnik News and RT
International – two reputable sources for news, information and analysis –
polar opposite Western media propaganda.
It shamelessly called their reporting valued by
growing millions “broadcasting fabrications and hate speech from their bureaus
in EU cities.”
It touted plans by EU officials to counter what they
called “use and misuse of communications tools…play(ing) an important role in
the dramatic political, economic and security-related developments (in) Eastern
(European countries) over the past 18 months.”
It drafted a nine-page “action plan” intended to
convey “positive” messages. It’ll increase funding to blast out Europe’s view
of things more effectively.
It wants EU policies promoted in former Russian
republics the old-fashioned way – by repeating Big Lies often enough until most
people believe them.
A new EU foreign service cell called East StratComTeam
operating by September will run things – functioning as a European ministry of
propaganda.
It’ll “develop dedicated communication material on
priority issues…put at the disposal of the EU’s political leadership, press
services, EU delegations and EU member states.”
Material circulated in Russia and other EU countries
aims to let news consumers “easily understand that political and economic
reforms promoted by the EU can, over time, have a positive impact on their
daily lives” – even though precisely the opposite is true.
It wants so-called benefits Europeans enjoy explained
to people continent-wide. Will millions of unemployed, underemployed and impoverished
people buy what’s plainly untrue from their own experience?
Sputnik News, RT, US independent sources like the
Progressive Radio Network and numerous others steadily gain audience strength
at the expense of scoundrel media people abandon for good reason.
Growing numbers want truth and full disclosure on
things affecting their lives and welfare. Politicians in Western countries want
ordinary people treated like mushrooms – well-watered and in the dark.
RT’s editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan said “the
European Union is diligently trying to stifle the alternative voice of RT, at a
time when in Europe there are hundreds of newspapers, television channels and
radio stations, which set out only one point of view on what is happening in
the world.”
The BBC is Fox News with an English accent. US
so-called public radio and broadcasting are no different – telling listeners
and viewers everything except what they most need to know.
Simonyan explained “Britain (has) an entire army
brigade of 1,500 men…whose tasks include the fight against Russia on social
networks. NATO has a task force aimed at countering Russian influence
throughout the world.”
“Only recently, Deutsche Welle launched a 24-hour
television channel in English to counter RT. At the same time, nearly all the
major Western media, including the BBC, DW and Euronews have long disseminated
their information in the Russian language, while Radio Liberty, funded directly
by the US government, broadcasts in Russian.”
“(I)f after all this, the EU still complains that they
are losing the ‘information war’ against Russia, perhaps it’s time to realize
that” growing numbers of people are fed up with being lied to.
People want reliable sources of news, information and
analysis unavailable through mainstream Western sources using propagandists
masquerading as journalists.
