Washington’s Anti-China Strategy In Hong Kong

August 31, 2019 Fred Goldstein, Struggle-la-lucha.org Educate! China, Inter-Imperialist Rivalry, Propaganda, United States

It is impossible to separate the counterrevolutionary colonialist demonstrations in Hong Kong from Washington’s new cold war against the People’s Republic of China (PRC). (See article “The New Cold War Against China,” lowwagecapitalism.com.} The over two-month-long campaign of demonstrations–which are really for independence from the mainland and aimed at detaching the city from China–are sustained and guided by superpower resources from Washington and London, with an assist from Taiwan’s separatist forces.

40 Rebuttals To The Media’s Smears Of Julian Assange

August 29, 2019 Fidel Narvaez, Thegrayzone.com Educate! Julian Assange, Propaganda, Repression, Wikileaks

The Western corporate media has shown extreme bias against the whistleblowing publication WikiLeaks and its publisher Julian Assange. Nowhere is this more evident than in a recent CNN article on the imprisoned journalist, which completely botches the facts. On July 15, CNN published an exclusive report that sent shock waves through the press: “Security reports reveal how Assange turned an embassy into a command post for election meddling.” This two-pronged hit piece mixes character assassination with a clumsy attempt to show that he and WikiLeaks supposedly served as agents of chaos...

Media Can’t Even Tell The Truth About Foreign Policy History

August 16, 2019 Staff, Yvesengler.com Educate! Foreign Policy, History, Media, Propaganda

Media coverage of Canadian foreign policy is uniquely one-sided and biased. It’s so bad that few readers, listeners or viewers will have ever seen or heard an honest analysis of this country’s past, let alone current role around the world. A recent Maclean’s story titled “The long history of ‘go back to where you came from’ in Canada” illustrates how uniquely bad foreign policy coverage is. The story demonstrates that it is permissible to detail the history of racist immigration policy, but can one imagine Maclean’s publishing a story headlined “the long history of Canada advancing Empire”?

For The Last Time, The Russians Didn’t Do It

August 13, 2019 Jack Balkwill, Intrepidreport.com Educate! Inter-Imperialist Rivalry, Propaganda, Russia

If one more person tells me the Russians are to blame for Trump being president, I’m going to vomit on them. I know who fixed the election, and I will explain it in this article. There has never been any evidence put forth by the corporate media or their primary source, the intelligence agencies, to prove the Russians hacked the elections to bring us Trump. Nothing, nada, zip. I have caught the intelligence agencies in so many lies over the years that if they told me the sun came up in the morning...

NPR Shreds Ethics Handbook To Normalize Regime Change In Venezuela

August 6, 2019 Lucas Koerner, FAIR. Educate! Media, Propaganda, Venezuela

The Reagan administration in 1982 coerced National Public Radio (NPR) to cover more favorably the US terrorist war then being waged against Nicaragua. As Greg Grandin writes, Otto Reich, head of the administration’s Orwellian propaganda outfit known as the Office of Public Diplomacy, informed the public network that his office had contracted “a special consultant service [to listen] to all NPR programs” on Central America. Dependent on state funding, NPR promptly buckled under pressure, reassigning reporters viewed as “too easy on the Sandinistas,” and hiring conservative pundit Linda Chavez to provide “balance.” NPR published an exclusive interview on May 30 with Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaidó, in which the self-proclaimed “interim president” was described as “a fugitive in his own country” confronting “authoritarian President Nicolás Maduro.

Busting The Myths Of American Exceptionalism And Innocence

August 5, 2019 Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese,Clearing the FOG. Podcast History, Propaganda, Racism, US Empire

The United States has long considered itself to be above the law, and it has gotten away with it by manufacturing public support for its actions, no matter how heinous, through the myths that we are better than everyone else and that we mean well even when things don't work out. Roberto Sirvent and Danny Haiphong's new book busts through these myths and shows why all of the problems of today are consistent with the history of what "America" has always been. Every chapter exposes truths and raises questions about who we really are. We can only live up to the values we claim to support if we understand these hard truths and recognize that to fix anything, we must fix everything. While it sounds daunting, the world is changing and this book provides essential knowledge for a path to a better place.

Russiagate Fanatic Michael Isikoff’s Curious Project

August 2, 2019 Ann Garrison, Blackagendareport.com Educate! Propaganda, RussiaGate

Russiagate fanatic Michael Isikoff, co-author of “Russian Roulette: The Inside Story of Putin's War on America and the Election of Donald Trump,” has been producing a series of “Conspiracyland ” podcasts for Yahoo News so as to put an end to any suspicion that Democratic or Clinton operatives murdered Seth Rich, the young Democratic National Committee (DNC) staffer who was shot dead on his way home from work on July 25, 2016, in Washington, D.C. Curious project—Isikoff’s—because the best way to bury inconvenient suspicions, expressions, or even truths is to ignore them...

RussiaGate As Organised Distraction

August 2, 2019 Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Propagandastudies.ac.uk Educate! Propaganda, RussiaGate

For over two years RussiaGate has accounted for a substantial proportion of all mainstream US media political journalism and, because US media have significant agenda-setting propulsion, of global media coverage as well. The timing has been catastrophic. The Trump Administration has shredded environmental protections, jettisoned nuclear agreements, exacerbated tensions with US rivals, and pandered to the rich. In place of sustained media attention to the end of the human species from global warming, its even more imminent demise in nuclear warfare...

March Of The Uyghurs

July 25, 2019 "Information Clearing House" - They are everywhere, where their Western, Gulf states and Turkish handlers want them to be. Their combat as well as political cells and units are based in Syria and Indonesia, in Turkey and occasionally in Egypt. When they are told to kill, they murder with unimaginable brutality; decapitating, or cutting to pieces priests, infants, old women. They are China’s worst nightmare. They are unleashing religious fundamentalism and foreign-sponsored militant nationalism and separatism.

Mother Jones Is Failing Its Namesake

July 26, 2019 Naomi LaChance, Fair.org Educate! Class Struggle, Media, Propaganda, Workers

Kevin Drum, a political columnist forMother Jones, wrote in a blog post (6/26/19) last month that he did not understand why workers do not want their employer to work with the government agencies carrying out President Donald Trump’s brutal immigration policies, particularly Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). When workers at home goods website Wayfair staged a walkout because their company was supplying bunk beds and mattresses for a child detention camp in Texas, Drum could not fathom their insubordination.

Ray McGovern: A Non-Hack That Raised Hillary’s Hackles

July 25, 2019 By Ray McGovern, Consortiumnews.com Educate! Electoral Politics, Propaganda, Wikileaks

Three years ago Monday WikiLeaks published a trove of highly embarrassing emails that had been leaked from inside the Democratic National Committee. As has been the case with every leak revealed by WikiLeaks, the emails were authentic. These particular ones, however, could not have come at a worse time for top Democratic Party officials. The emails made it unmistakably clear that the DNC had tipped the scales sharply against Democratic insurgent Bernie Sanders, giving him a snowball’s chance in hell for the nomination.

Theoretical Lies Of The World Bank

June 27, 2019 By Eric Toussaint, Cadtm.org Educate! Aid, History, New Economy, Propaganda, World Bank

In 2019, the World Bank (WB) and the IMF will be 75 years old. These two international financial institutions (IFI), founded in 1944, are dominated by the USA and a few allied major powers who work to generalize policies that run counter the interests of the world’s populations. The WB and the IMF have systematically made loans to States as a means of influencing their policies. Foreign indebtedness has been and continues to be used as an instrument for subordinating the borrowers. Since their creation, the IMF and the WB have violated international pacts on human rights and have no qualms about supporting dictatorships.

June 27, 2019 Ben Norton, Thegrayzone.com Educate! Censorship, Corporate Media, Government, New York Times (NYT), Propaganda

The New York Times has publicly acknowledged that it sends some of its stories to the US government for approval from “national security officials” before publication. This confirms what veteran New York Times correspondents like James Risen have said: The American newspaper of record regularly collaborates with the US government, suppressing reporting that top officials don’t want made public. On June 15, the Times reported that the US government is escalating its cyber attacks on Russia’s power grid.

June 22, 2019 By Nafeez Ahmed, Mintpressnews.com Educate! Inter-Imperialist Rivalry, Iran, Navy, Propaganda

Insurge — The Trump administration has released a range of photographic and video evidence in support of its claim that proves how Iran attacked a Japanese-owned oil tanker near the Strait of Hormuz. But a Canadian military analyst and former Navy officer for nearly twenty years has called the evidence into question, highlighting unresolved anomalies in the US version of events. His reservations are backed by Japanese government sources.
