I agree with everything each of you has contributed to this thread.

Remember the alleged 'Operation Mockingbird' ?

https://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL21...-the-media.htm

It was real, except that it wasn't / isn't the CIA doing it. It's the Gog. Our spiritual overlords. The laughable 'lizard people' of QAnon.

It's scary that the left leaning networks are the only ones coherent (and truthful) at the present time. That could swing at anytime.

The proverbial 'they'...the elusive forces of evil that want the human race divided and fighting each other...try to get us to kill each other.

The new civil war in the USA.

Tucker's wrong about Trump being the answer, but he's right about not taking "democracy" to the Ukraine.

We installed the Shah over Mossadegh in Iran for corporate gain (look what happened there, blame Carter, eh), put Macros in the Philippines, and don't forget Allende in Chile.

That's democracy. Not.

"Are they yelling in Atlanta, Ted" ? At 2:15. The movie predates (and predicts) the Turner Network by 12 years.

Also presented by our overlords, but very effective.

Maddow: From the headline of the article you linked

A Court Ruled Rachel Maddow's Viewers Know She Offers Exaggeration and Opinion, Not Facts
Carlson: From the quote I supplied
Quote:
...given Mr. Carlson's reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statements he makes
So just how much skepticism do you suppose TC's fans arrive at? What percentage of them would you call reasonable viewers?

The only thing suspicious about Greenwald, is the fact he hasn't been 'suicided' like Gary Webb.

Two bullets in the head, gutter downspout and window screen laying on the ground beneath an open window. Clear case of suicide.

The Ukraine project has run up into reality.

Any scholar of Russia would know that the Russians would not allow their prized naval base in Crimea to fall into the hands of NATO.

Secondly, the Donbas area was the industrial heart of both Ukraine and Russia. This is the area noted for high valued equipment, such as aircraft engines and turbines for ships and hydroelectric power. However, it is situated on the Russian border and is inhabited by a significant number of Russian-speaking sympathizers. The Donbas is where there is an active, slow-burning conflict.

The Ukrainian government would like to cleanse the area, but any Russian government which allows that to happen would immediately fall.

Additionally, the Ukrainians having weaponized language and given free rein to right-wing militias have created further divisions.

I believe the Russian military parading on the border is indicating to the Ukrainians the real cost of cleansing the Donbas.

And Erdogan is trying to open up the Black Sea to NATO warships.
