It is a frightening and propaganda-ridden world we live in. The RT report above is, IMO, mostly true....but makes propaganda points of its own. I'm not surprised at the notion that MSF might have a few 'eyes and ears' inside it - but I'd doubt that it, as a institution, is anything other than dedicated doctors and nurses. On the other hand USAID is primarily covert work under the cover of 'aid'. Lumping them all together is unfair and for making political 'points'. I think Corbett recently did a brave and interesting show HERE, basically saying a plague on both/all of your houses - you all lie and make up untruths [plus run dirty operations] in service of furthering your power base and political agendas. Top-down hierarchies will almost always produce repression, control, suffering, and lies.
The only answer is to switch to a new paradigm of bottom-up organization and polity. It usually goes by the name of 'classical' Anarchy - but there is nothing anarchic about it. It goes by other names, as well from grass-roots-democracy through small-is-beautiful to community-based social/political structure, and more. The old paradigms have oppressed us for all time and led humanity and the rest of the living Planet to the abyss. We must now quickly choose another direction [and paradigm] or perish soon. IMHO.
