March 14, 2012 16:52

Some mainstream news channels have been recently caught carrying dubious footage from Syria. It fuels the debate over media's role in legitimizing possible military intervention in the country.

Al Jazeerah never "joined the zionists' deception". Al Jazeerah was founded by two Jewish brothers: David and Jean Friedman with Israeli nationality who lived in France. The establishment in 1996(7) was in preparation for 911 and America's invasion into ME. Its goal from inception was to cover for Israel and blame all atrocities on the West. If it was not for the Jewish domination on air waves, Al Jazeerah would have never been allowed to the cable clubs.

Al Jazeera as well ! 15.03.2012 03:50

from: Doctor Saka March 15, 2012, 01:07 quote&nbs p; +9 Sinc e the Libyan war, I have removed Al-Jazeera, France 24, CNN, BBC, FOX  and many of such propaganda media from my list  of favorite channels. Since then, I have never regretted. It is better to stay uninformed than to allow myself to be manipulated by such bias media who call themselves mainstream media. They're liars and do the bidding of the Zionists agenda. Shame on the US, Britain&nbs p;and France for the lies they continue to churn out there.============== =====I hope many more people see this because what you write is quite true.  It is a shame Al Jazeera joined the zionists' deception media and are now about as useful as Fox.  I still get a laugh about the Secretary of State using abusive terms because Russia and China saw through that bid to overthrow the Syrian government with the one-sided proposal in the U.N. (Syrian military holds fire, Rebels and French/U.S./Israeli/ Libyan terrorists continue the killing.)    That Secretary must be one frustrated person indeed.  Perhaps comparing notes with M. Lewinskiy will alleviate her torment.

You can believe that Jesus Christ Code 15.03.2012 03:43

Jesus isn't in the Bible like that, I don't get why people pray to Jesus.  He isn't the main guy in the main Orthodox or NKJV Bible. Read again.

We are dealing with a culture of death, and deception.

Th e American media is anti-religion, anti-life, anti-family; and you think they want you to know The Truth.

Don't forget it was the American leaders that dropped two nuclear bombs on two populated cities to end the 2nd world war, and today since then some 60 million of their very own unborn children have been aborted.

It would appear  'they' who ever they are, have learned how to control and manipulate truths, for even truths can lie, and they know how to do it, cult-feminists have been doing it in North America for 40 years...

Be careful, all 'they' want is an excuse, or then again they will make on up.

Keep in mind, THE TRUTH is not democratic, it simply is.

(based on the book, THE JESUS CHRIST CODE)

Lets think about this logically, the rebels are in control of the area while the Syrian army is near by but not in the area, how did the army go in, kill the women and kids and run back to their positions? are they all relatives of the Flash from the comic?, here's out it really is done;
the rebels kill the people then film it and say it's the army and posts on youtube, and on youtube you will find that your post awaits approval, or no one can post at all, how convenient.

Far to many media viewers are exposing the 'Dannys' and other western agents spewing gross inaccurate or entirely made up numbers, reports while Zionist owned/led media-outlets insert false footage taken either in a entirely different area in Syria or often in another nation as 'evidence' of the US/Israeli supplied terrorists claims.

After days of demonizing the Syrian Gov. over the deaths in BabaAmr of two foreign journalists, forensic doctors discovered IED Nail bombs by the US/Israeli terrorists had in fact killed those two journalists. Not a single murmur of apology nor even a stark revelation all of the news agency's had falsely accused Syria for what clearly had been yet another terrorist created murder.

Yes, given the free Billions in cash US Taxpayers are forced to give TerroristIsrael led Apartheid Israel's leaders each year such enormous propaganda machines waging War on the American people, their minds and souls such is to be expected. However, with each exposure of their lies and distortion, it makes is far more difficult to have any creditability and hence sway the American and western populations to their endless warmongering agenda.

Now it seems TerroristIsrael has dispensed with mere diplomacy and reached back to their Jewish Mafia roots in extorting President Obama to either wage War on Iran or they order their goose stepping, spy infested Washington DC based Jewish Lobby AIPAC to pull all support for Obama's re-election. Effectively either US President Obama sacrifices the 99% of American Citizens or face the wrath of the utterly corrupt AIPAC lobby.

Obama should pre-empt Apartheid Israel's goose stepping agenda and demand US Dept. of Justice force AIPAC to register all of it's members as Foreign Agents operating inside America and legally limit their access to all US elected officials. America is not a Zionist 1% Dictatorship Mr. Obama, prove that as a fact and that America is still a Democracy whom is composed of 99% Non-Jews.

KONY 2012 and NATO, all fraud! 14.03.2012 21:17

Kudos to RT for exposing the lies of the so-called mainstream media: BBC, CNN, FOX, FRANCE 24, Al-Jazeera, etc. Honestly I admire RT for this coverage. I was expecting&n bsp;that such lies whill always be exposed by our most trusted alternative media like RT, Press TV, CCTV. This is what true journalism should be about. It is time for the alternative media to expose the lies of the mainstream media on a regular basis. Once the MSM is discredited, they will no longer be able to manipulate the public to support such evil agenda.

wag the dog drama.  Especially when you use such immature quotes you only irritate the whole Muslim Community.  Not being a dk just being honest.  You might want to lighten up on some of the immature headlines RT. Because the average person couldn't stomach what Assad is really doing.  If you are going to try to be taken seriously atleast be honest in your Journalism Because the Entire Muslim community is pretty enflamed right now with Russia.  I know Russia might mean well maybe they don't but fact of the matter is The Eurasian Unionn that Putin dreams of is more or less just that a dream.  It is probably hard for Putin to stomach the kind of reality that Russia today is facing.  I just don't see Russia really understanding just by supporting Assad the kind of hatred that the Muslim community really has for Putin.  If I was the EU, I or China.  I wouldn't buy into the Eurasian Union that Putin has planned.  Just to be on the safe side.

This video, and article is a good example of what many now know. ALL media is biased. ALL governments are biased. They all want to tell the story that suits their readers or their citizens. To gain popularity. In my opinion the ultimate goal is to keep the people of the globe against each other.The fact seems to be, from what I have seen and read, is that neither Syria's government nor the opposition has the lives and welfare of the people in mind, the only importance to them is their own personal gains. This is only my opinion, my take on what I have seen.If these two entities care anything for their country or the innocent who are caught in the crossfire, they will cease and find a more productive way to end their conflict. To RT,Although I find you to be on occasion guilty  of biased reporting yourself, I thank you for shedding light in darkness, I thank you for helping me "Question More". I trust your news much more than the main stream. I would also like to commend the journalists of Al Jazeera for resigning due to this biased reporting, I hope this also becomes a trend. I hope journalists remember what it is we expect, truth, not information to gain popularity with readers or government, just truth.
