Quote of the Day | 0824
I was critical of most western ‘mainstream’ media because they see quite incapable of asking basic questions such as: “why are we putting Bradley Manning on trial and not the helicopter-gunner who shot up over a dozen civilians including children?” Shooting at children with an anti-tank gun and then lying about it to the world is probably a war-crime, certainly something worth digging into in the context of a war that itself has been started based on lies.
After more than ten years the organisation you work for seems quite incapable to even come up with the proper questions relating to the greatest western war-crimes since 1945 (let alone have the guts to ask them). This despite the fact that you are paid for, by the public, to inform that public about the world. This so we can make better-informed choices when we go to vote or protest the people we voted for last time.
