UK Government Caught Lying to the World while American Media Ramp-Up Russia Hysteria.



In a previous BLOG entry, “Purge of Russian Diplomats leading to War”, I discussed the premature expulsion of hundreds of Russian diplomats, based on zero evidence in the #Skripal case. Now the UK’s own scientists, (Porton Down) cannot confirm that the nerve agent used is linked to Russia. This is a massive blow for the UK’s credibility. This also indicates the “propaganda war machines” further efforts to isolate Russia in an effort to stir up yet another senseless war based on false intelligence and blatant deception.

Russia gate has escalated in the last few weeks, particularly in the MSM, where one cannot turn on the TV without hearing new “revelations” in the Mueller investigation. This level of Russia hysteria has not been seen since the late 1950’ at the Cold War’s peak, some saying this fearmongering surpasses even the days of McCarthyism. This certainly is becoming laughable, if it wasn’t so serious. 

Today RT News UK, stated, "We've had a hysterical witch hunt, a trial by media" says journalist and broadcaster @NeilClark66 ​ who believes that @theresa_may​ and @BorisJohnson​ should be forced to resign over Porton Down revelation.”

Closer to home, Australian “rogue journalist”, Caitlin Johnson, published an excellent piece, “If Western Media Were Honest about Russia:” writes,

“Many of our readers have been pointing out the recent revelations that some rather significant falsehoods have been knowingly advanced by the British government about Russia and promoted uncritically by trusted media outlets of the western world. Following said revelations, there have been some attempts by the Foreign Office and those same media outlets to cover up said falsehoods.”

That’s right folks, ignoring the central principle of “innocent until proven guilty”, UK PM Teresa May, Boris Johnson and their neo con cohorts, have been lying to the western world. And currently they’re attempting to even lie about their lies. We should ask who is complicit in spreading this false propaganda.  Johnson goes on to write,

“…those billionaires hire executives to direct their media empires who are loyal to establishment interests, those executives in turn hire editors who are loyal to establishment interests, and those editors hire journalists who are loyal to establishment interests, effectively creating an environment wherein the only way to get ahead is to unquestioningly promote whatever narratives are being advanced by western intelligence/defence agencies and their plutocratic allies.”

Legendary journalist, John Pilger once stated, “…the BBC is and has long been the most refined propaganda service in the world.”  See full interview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2myKhHzz7sw
It can also be categorically stated that MSM outlets like, CNN, MSNBC and Australia’s ABC, carry these “establishment interests”, promoting for example, the Iraqi invasion 15 years ago, based on spurious evidence or simply no evidence at all.  

Since the end of WWII, the US, by way of the CIA, has been creating havoc around the planet: toppling governments, instigating regime change, and supporting right-wing dictatorships. In a recent tweet by writer and activist, Zach Carter, @zachcarter, wrote:

“The U.S. has long been the leading sponsor of terrorism in Latin America, from direct invasions to sponsoring military coups to training death squads. The message since Clinton militarized the border in 1994 is clear: we can destroy your country, but you can't come here.”

While MSM ramp-up its Russia hysteria and the UK blatantly lie about the Skripal case, there is a minority of activists, academics, journalist and writers, paying close attention to the warmongers cry for more war, violence, death and destruction.

It’s time all us of become Watchdogs over the Dogs of War.

  This is the first film I have ever seen that begins with a 10 minute `Overture'; the music is excellent and the composer, Max Steiner...
