US/NATO War on Russia

[Peter Presland]

Re Russia supporting the separatists with weapons, supplies and soldiers -- you would think "by the unofficial rules of the game of international geopolitics" this would be fair. But fair ain't part of the unofficial rules of the US. Anything goes these days, including the old adage "do as I say not what I do."

The entire Ukrainian affair is a open case study of how America and we Brits play the world and it's own citizens using the most blatant and appalling propaganda --- which we all continue to incorrectly call "news".

As I keep saying the Muslim threat was waning, so time for a new nasty ol' Commie threat to reemerge.

Welcome back David. Trust you had a good break.

I actually watched the BBC news on Ukraine last night in full. It was quite an extended piece in light of the UNSC meeting and the latest evidence-free accusations against Russia. I'm pretty long-in-the-tooth about these things by now but I really could not believe what I was hearing and watching - maps, 'experts', 'NATO Spokesman says' and all.

I've probably been following events in Ukraine as closely as anyone these past 6 months or so and can say with 100% confidence that that news piece was so utterly and cleverly deceptive - and downright false in the overall impressions conveyed - that it MUST have been put together by a special unit dedicated to pure deception where important geo-political matters are to be reported on. If the first casualty of war is truth then, on the evidence of BBC reporting on Russia and Israel, we are at war.

I considered another complaint to the BBC but I know that the only thing it will achieve is to get my card further marked by you-know-who. That's not a cop-out either because frankly I couldn't give a toss about the content of my 'security services' file. It's just that there are (hopefully) more effective ways to spend my time.
