Mainstream media is dyingNews consumers are giving up traditional sources of information such as newspapers and television and turning to so-called new media, says US journalist and author Michael Wolff, creator of Newser.com web site. |
What good is state sponsored terror against innocent people if the state can not take pride in their bloodshed? The United States uses the drones not to combat an enemy that is attacking their troops, but to kill and terrorize people in their homes, cars, wedding parties, etc, who are opposed to their occupation. The airplanes used by Al Qaeda on 9-11 were also a type of drones.
American drons are copying the Israeli method of menacing the Palestinians. The U.S drones have been killing women and children in Afghanistan, Somalia, Iraq, Yemen, Palestine and in other places. Extensive use of mercenaries and drones speak about the racist/ colonial nature of the U.S war machine. I was shocked when the guy said these images on You Tube are both like beheadings and a way of opening a dialogue between the Pentagon and the American people. This is the only point of his stupefying rant that touched on the truth because Americans know war primarily through Hollywood movies and You Tube is an extension of that. See the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation’s documentary on the relationship between Hollywood and the Pentagon [CBC program, The Passionate Eye, “Operation Hollywood”]












Watching payback for the 9/11 mass murder of 3,000 innocent civilians is cool.
