The Largest US Foreign Policy Blunder Since Vietnam Is Complete: Iran Readies Massive Syrian Ground

29. Thank you for the heads-up.

Did not know any of that, ChisolmTrailDem. I'd read and quoted articles from there for years, appreciating the news that I wasn't getting from CIABCNNBCBSFakeNoiseNutworks, I won't give the same credence to Tyler and Zero Hedge from now on. And I will certainly continue to make clear, as FlatBaroque did, where my posts are coming from.

Something else: I've been noticed over the years that when someone brings in a source that's not "reputable," the messenger gets the business. One example is Webb and his Dark Alliance story. The film is named "Kill the Messenger." Same thing happened before, when Oliver Stone was filming "JFK," the press started to destroy the film and the director before a script had even been finalized.

I don't like seeing it on DU, where some give the business to those with whom they disagree. Seeing one DUer tell another DUer they're going to be monitored sets off an alarm as I've become a lightning rod for MIRT team removal. It seems that whenever I get a post, like yesterday, when someone says something nice about what they've read, the person gets the ziggy. That is why I leap to the defense of my fellow DUers. Each day, there aren't as many as there used to be.
