Robert Fisk: Journalism and the words of power
#2
A typically astute article from Robert Fisk.

Here's another phrase routinely deployed by MSM to hide the truth: "austerity measures". Often deployed alongside TINA - "there is no alternative".
"It means this War was never political at all, the politics was all theatre, all just to keep the people distracted...."
"Proverbs for Paranoids 4: You hide, They seek."
"They are in Love. Fuck the War."

Gravity's Rainbow, Thomas Pynchon

"Ccollanan Pachacamac ricuy auccacunac yahuarniy hichascancuta."
The last words of the last Inka, Tupac Amaru, led to the gallows by men of god & dogs of war
