(62,325 posts)quoting the excellent reporting of Al Jazeera back then. It didn't phase me then and doesn't phase me now.
The reason why we are seeing these lame attacks, and notice not one of them has offered anything other than the old, lame, personal attacks, by which I am also unphased btw, that we got from Bush supporters re Al Jazeera to refute the article from RT.
I'm actually laughing at the responses frankly. No one ever managed to stop us from watching Al Jazeera with these kinds of lame attacks and as you pointed out, WE WERE RIGHT not to believe a word that was coming from our own disgraceful Corporate Media.
And we are right now. Al Jazeera was hated because they were exposing the truth. Same thing with RT.
And if it ever gets banned from this site, that will be my last day here. There sure is a huge effort to get that done. No surprise though as to who is working so hard. I will simply spend even more time making sure as many people as possible watch other sources of news, like RT, as I have done already.
I'll take Robert Parry's reporting on this over our Corporate media or anonymous sources on a political forum. The fact is that RT is just one of many, many news sources reporting this story and it is clear that someone doesn't want that info to get out.
Too late, most of the rest of the world are now aware and I suspect so do their governments which is why it was so impossible to get a coalition together for any kind of military action in Syria. And that is why good journalism is so important. It can actually stop wars. And had we had it back in 2003, the tragic, brutal war in Iraq would never have happened.
