The New Domestic War on Terror Is Coming

By Glenn Greenwald, January 20 2021

The last two weeks have ushered in a wave of new domestic police powers and rhetoric in the name of fighting “terrorism” that are carbon copies of many of the worst excesses of the first War on Terror that began nearly twenty years ago.

Canada’s Unraveling Web of Deceit. Terrorism and War Propaganda
By Mark Taliano, November 28, 2017
Now that Syria and its allies in the Axis of Resistance have done the world a favour by destroying most of the West’s terror proxies in Syria, the Canadian narrative is falling apart.

Socialism, Capitalism and Health Care
By Prof. James Petras, November 28, 2017
The US political and economic elites have always bragged that capitalism is far superior to socialism in terms of providing people’s personal welfare. They claim that citizens live longer, healthier and happier lives under capitalism.

Air Strikes against Syria: Who are the War Criminals? Who is Supporting Al Qaeda? Russia or America?

By Prof Michel Chossudovsky, October 07 2016

America is coming to the rescue of Al Qaeda under a humanitarian mandate. The unspoken agenda is to undermine the Liberation of Aleppo. The pretext and justification for these actions are based on America’s “responsibility to protect” (R2P) the “moderates” in Aleppo from Syrian and Russian attacks and bombing raids. 

War Propaganda: Syria’s Destruction by the Lies of the Western Media. “Washington will Never let Go, Their Target is World Hegemony”

By Peter Koenig, October 05 2016

Europe, alias the West, has become infested with falsehoods, with thirst for profit and more gains and personal comfort, a hearth of egocentricity and disrespect for her brothers and sisters, let alone for the rest of the world – there is no equal on earth, other than the US of A, the Master of all Masters of crime and horror. Europe with its hundreds of years of colonization always was the chieftain of these ignoble attributes, but now, all scruples are gone; the veils are lifted. There is not even an iota of shame left. 

Washington Leads The World To War

By Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, October 06 2016

What must the world think watching the US presidential campaign? Over time US political campaigns have become more unreal and less related to voters’ concerns, but the current one is so unreal as to be absurd. The offshoring of American jobs by global corporations and the deregulation of the US financial system have resulted in American economic failure. One might think that this would be an issue in a presidential campaign. 

 

The Real Reason the US Can’t Separate Moderates from Al Qaeda in Syria

Don't Believe the #WarPropaganda

Jim Stone

There is a classic piece of war propaganda floating around the web that was supposedly written by a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, saying how bad all the Muslims are and how "clean cut" looking Muslims you would never suspect of anything rape their children and every woman in sight, with the women constantly cowering in fear, and it goes on line after line ad nauseum.

 

FACT: Practically all war propaganda involves rape of innocents on a massive scale by the "enemy" that is supposed to be attacked. This is to make the enemy look totally unworthy of all sympathy and totally deserving of annihilation.  

PROBLEM: In this day and age, a very large number of people simply are not stupid enough to buy war propaganda anymore, especially with the web, so spurting off a piece like that is risky business, plenty of people are going to call B.S.

MY FAVORITE PIECE OF WAR PROPAGANDA THAT SAYS IT ALL:

This is an old classic - During World War 2, the Japanese people were told that before an American man could become a soldier, he had to kill his parents to prove he was heartless enough to do battle. The Japanese propaganda outlets then said: The American soldiers killed their own parents, what will they do to you and your family?

The Japanese believed it, and it showed in the way they fought the war. Kamikaze pilots were common, and it is a fact that the first people to break the sound barrier were Japanese soldiers piloting human guided bombs into American warships. The very first guided bombs were in fact Japanese on suicide drops, with their last acts being to pilot bombs into warships. Why would the Japanese go to such lengths to protect their homeland? Because they believed the B.S. the propaganda outlets in Japan fed them.

So when you hear about all the child rapists in the Arab world, or see an ISIS attack on World Wrestling, REMEMBER THIS LESSON FROM THE JAPANESE, war propaganda works GREAT!

Truth, War Propaganda, CIA and Media Manipulation

Truth, War Propaganda, CIA and Media Manipulation

By Global Research

Never before has it been so important to have independent, honest voices and sources of information. We are – as a society – inundated and overwhelmed with a flood of information from a wide array of sources, but these sources of information, by and large, serve the powerful interests and individuals that own them. The main sources of information, for both public and official consumption, include the mainstream media, alternative media, academia and think tanks.

The mainstream media is the most obvious in its inherent bias and manipulation. The mainstream media is owned directly by large multinational corporations, and through their boards of directors are connected with a plethora of other major global corporations and elite interests. An example of these connections can be seen through the board of Time Warner.

Time Warner owns Time Magazine, HBO, Warner Bros., and CNN, among many others. The board of directors includes individuals past or presently affiliated with: the Council on Foreign Relations, the IMF, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Warburg Pincus, Phillip Morris, and AMR Corporation, among many others.

Two of the most “esteemed” sources of news in the U.S. are the New York Times (referred to as “the paper of record”) and the Washington Post. The New York Times has on its board people who are past or presently affiliated with: Schering-Plough International (pharmaceuticals), the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, Chevron Corporation, Wesco Financial Corporation, Kohlberg & Company, The Charles Schwab Corporation, eBay Inc., Xerox, IBM, Ford Motor Company, Eli Lilly & Company, among others. Hardly a bastion of impartiality.

Syria: Media Disinformation and Corporate Media’s “Independent Bloggers”

Syria: 

Media Disinformation, War Propaganda 

and the Corporate Media’s “Independent Bloggers”

By Phil Greaves

A glaring example of one of the major pitfalls emerging in supposed “new media” has arisen during the conflict in Syria. Most notably in the form of YouTube blogger, and self-proclaimed weapons expert Eliot Higgins, aka “Brown Moses”. The clique of highly ideological analysts, think-tankers and journalists Higgins’ regularly works with and consults – alongside the dubiously funded western NGO’s he receives payment from – provide a stark indication as to the factions within the corporate media circus this supposedly independent blogger is operating in unison with.

Higgins has provided the western corporate media apparatus the opportunity to present its war-propaganda as having a “new media” facade of impartial legitimacy. Yet it is the same capitalistic “old media” apparatus endlessly promoting his work – consisting of scouring Jihadist war-porn and agitprop on YouTube for tidbits that may bolster corporate media narratives – as an invaluable tool in tracking human rights abuses, arms trafficking, and risk-free coverage of fast evolving conflicts. Yet contrary to the innocuous portrayal of an unemployed YouTube addict in Leicester becoming a credible analyst of a conflict in the Middle East; Higgins’ blog has been thrust into the foreground not through the benefit of impartiality or public appraisals, but through corporate “benefactors” with vested interest operating alongside the same “old media” organisations and stenographers.
