US Military continues to BOMB Innocent Civilians in IRAQ

2008-05-17T02:32:42Z

It's been five years since George W. Bush proclaimed Mission Accomplished in Iraq. Now take a very good look at these images. Yes, they are disturbing. You won't see them on Western TV networks. And no, there's not a hint of mission accomplished about them. These are innocent civilians--- poor Shi'ite Arabs living in the three million-strong Sadr City in Baghdad, one of the largest slums in the world. As The Real News has reported Sadr City is being walled in--- transformed into a gulag, and pounded relentlessly by US air strikes. The Pentagon---and the Iraqi government---say they are "protecting the Green Zone" by attacking Sadr City.
As if that traumatic scene of the helicopter leaving the roof of the US embassy in Saigon in 1975 was rattling too many military minds. 1745 Iraqi civilians were killed in April--- against 159 policemen and 104 soldiers. Over 400 people were killed in Sadr City alone. Only 10% were guerrillas. This carnage is a direct consequence of Dick Cheney's recent tour of the Middle East, Iraq included. This carnage is a direct consequence of Gen. David Petraeus' surge. These are victims of a vicious political battle between the al-Maliki government in Baghdad, supported by the al-Hakim family, and the US, against Muqtada al-Sadr, who they fear will win the next elections in October---because, of course, he is immensely popular. And in the big picture, these deaths are a graphic example of how the sophisticated Pentagon machine plans to deal with "problematic" urban slums in the future. We wall them, we isolate them, and we bomb the hell out of them. Who cares about collateral damage? It may be very harsh to say, but that's how it is.

Right Wing "BUZZ" Words

2008-05-17T02:33:04Z

Thanks for viewing and post comments at the bottom.

Ok, here the run down!

When you hear the pundits on all the networks you start to notice all the constant repetitive wordplay on the election let's break it down!

Buzz word number 1: Jeremiah Wright -- The most popular buzz words from all right wing pundits! When you hear it, you know they're trying to paint Senator Obama as the "black candidate", "un-American", "racist" and anything they could think of! Project for Excellence in Broadcasting believes that the Jeremiah Wright issue dominated the news for over three weeks since the outburst at the National Press Club and NAACP dinner. So when Wright's name comes up.... You know what I'm talking about!

Buzz word number 2: 1968 -- When the Democratic Party held their convention in 1968, their were riots with outrage towards going to war with Vietnam, Robert F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s deaths. There was civil unrest towards the late 1960s. When you hear that word, you know that right wing pundits are expecting the Democratic Party to be divided cause over the outcome. I heard it on Rush Limbaugh (calls for riots), seen it on Newsbusters (Brent Bozell's commentary), and Karl Rove (calls of dividing the party).

Buzz word number 3: Black Vote and White Vote -- This is the old tactic to make it seem like a race issue. The polls show that Senator Obama won most of the Black vote. And it's mainly due to the Jeremiah Wright issue. The media harps on this and encourages the Blacks to vote for Obama over McCain and Clinton. This buzz word is the most common of the right wing pundits. Remember the Republicans love to race-bait and use divisive strategies to win. So when you hear right wing pundits say Black vote and White vote, then you know they are trying to divide the Democratic Party.

Buzz word number 4: Florida and Michigan --When the Democratic Party stripped the delegates from the two major states, the candidates were obligated not to accept the delegates. But since, Senator Hillary Clinton didn't win most of the primaries; she wants to include the Florida and Michigan delegates in to at least manage a narrow lead against Senator Barack Obama. When you hear those words, you know they're trying to paint Obama as ineffective. They're trying to paint Clinton as a "cheater". They're trying to prop up John McCain to claim that he would win Florida seeing the Democrats as weak on issue in Florida.

Buzz word number 5: Positive -- Usually when a losing candidate is trying to generate support, the right wing pundits want to say "nice things" about a major rival or ally! The right wing pundits were very supportive of Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani and Fred Thompson. Now seeing that Barack Obama is the frontrunner, the right wing pundits are trying to paint Hillary Clinton as better candidate over Obama.

Buzz word number 6: Experience -- Has there been enough talk about who's experienced. When you hear the right wing pundits explain the reasons to not support Obama, it's basically a tactic to drive a wedge towards working class supporters and black voters.

Buzz word number 7: Polls -- Right wing pundits love the polls. They can determine who the more formable candidate is! But as I said in the last videos, don't believe what the polls say, don't believe what the pundits says, always believe that you're candidate can win. Ignore what people say about you're candidate. They don't know the candidate personally, and they'll excuse usually comes from listening to the media anyways. So when you hear a right wing pundit say that, you know what I am talking about!

Be on the lookout for these buzz words.

Rest in Peace to those who died in the Midwest and South during the tornados, the cyclone in Burma, former high school friend Tiffany Snow, and less than $1.999 a gallon for gas.

Authors@Google: Noam Chomsky

2008-05-17T02:33:19Z

For the past forty years Noam Chomsky's writings on politics and language have established him as a preeminent public intellectual and as one of the most original and wide-ranging political and social critics of our time. Among the seminal figures in linguistic theory over the past century, since the 1960s Chomsky has also secured a place as perhaps the leading dissident voice in the United States.

Noam Chomsky is Institute Professor emeritus of linguistics at MIT and the author of numerous books including Chomsky vs. Foucault: A Debate on Human Nature, On Language, Objectivity and Liberal Scholarship, and Towards a New Cold War (all published by The New Press). He lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

This event took place on April 22, 2008 at the Google Cambridge office, as a part of the Authors@Google series.

Obama Legitimizes FOX by Failing to Confront Them

2008-05-13T14:34:49Z

Barack Obama didn’t call out FOX for what they are — a Republican propaganda outlet — when he appeared on FOX News Sunday to talk to Chris Wallace. Unfortunately, this means Obama, the Democrats, and American democracy lost.

Obama did a respectable job answering Wallace’s light/medium-biased questions, but he didn’t go after FOX the way his campaign claimed Obama would in a Friday statement to Talking Points Memo. Instead, he made the error of treating the interview as if it was actually an interview, not an ambush staged by enemies committed to destroying him. Because FOX had two main goals for Obama’s appearance: to further the appearance that FOX is actually a news organization and to gather ammunition against Obama.

FOX clearly accomplished their first goal, since nothing could legitimize FOX more than having a top presidential candidate (and a Democrat, no less) do a sit-down interview with them. What Obama and his campaign failed to realize is how destructive it is to the Democratic party, as well as America and its democracy, to have people think that FOX is anything other than a Republican propaganda outlet. By legitimizing FOX, the stories they run, the lies they tell, and the opinions they espouse are also legitimized. There’s no better example of this than the recent ABC debate, where George Stephanopoulos thought that Sean Hannity would be a good person to ask for questions to ask Obama. Why would Stephanopoulos think that Sean Hannity—a racist, serial liar, and FOX’s strongest, most consistent purveyor of anti-Obama misinformation—is a “fair and balanced” authority on Obama? Because Hannity is on FOX, and Stephanopoulos thinks FOX is a news organization. “Fair and Balanced” is right there in their slogan. And because more high profile democrats don’t identify FOX for what it is, FOX is allowed to retain its appearance of legitimacy, which is all they want. They don’t want to be a news organization — they simply want to create the appearance that they are a news organization to provide cover for their propaganda. And, sadly, Obama was a willing participant in furthering that appearance.

Hillary Clinton and FOX Cross-Promote for each other

2008-05-17T02:35:55Z

If you are worried about how Obama would handle FOX interview, ask yourself why no one on Hillary Clinton's side can see anything wrong with pandering to FOX. Steve Douchie even envoked Hillary's campaign advisor once again to promote their agenda. If you haven't yet seen the original "OUTFOXED: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism", you need to: www.outfoxed.org This goes back to before Obama even won senate. Brave New Films exposes FOX's direct role in convincing the american people that George W. Bush deserves a second term and the Iraq war was a war againt terrorists. Supporters of Clinton should understand our beef is with FOX and the rest of the MSM and has always been for longer than this campaign has been going on. Take a break from all the campaign coverage and check out OUTFOXED and the FOX Attacks series. I also recommend any Brave New Films documentery as they are beacon of light in a dark sea of Main Stream Propaganda.

Persepolis propaganda - Alcohol ban in Iran

2008-05-17T02:30:34Z

Iran demonization propaganda. De la France, avec amour.

I dont know if you have noticed the massive and incredibly positive media coverage of this movie. It was featured 3 different times in 2 months in my local newspaper (the same newspaper that is).

But how coherent 'Persepolis' really is? Veiled facts, misconceptions, racism, and arbitrarity abound in a self-proclaimed autobiography that is given the character of factual, or of a 'sincere' intimate approach at the situation of a nation.

How much of a coincidence is it that a demonization movie like 'Persepolis' is being showcased globally and given full media coverage, at the most key times of the West-Iran tensions, when it was awarded in Cannes over a year ago?

FOX ATTACKS IRAN FOX NETWORK WANTS WAR WITH IRAN

2008-05-17T02:32:45Z

I remember very clearly the daily fearmongering led by FOX as they cheered for war with Iraq. The 24/7 images, sound effects, yelling and threatening were an ever-present drumbeat for war. We had to invade, and we had to invade now.. anyone who didn't see that was a traitor. They viciously attacked those of us who worked to get out the truth.

You'd think that with the complete failure in Iraq, those days would be behind us. Sadly, you'd be wrong.

FOX wants war with Iran.

It's almost too ridiculous to believe, but it's shockingly real. We've already compiled over 4 hours of FOX footage... the same images, sound effects, yelling and threatening that led the U.S. to invade Iraq is happening right now to sell a war with Iran. They are saying the exact same things!!

Here is the video evidence, side-by-side with what they said about Iraq.

This time is different though. We're prepared, and we have the means to alert people to what FOX is doing. Everyone has seen the terrible tragedy and the awful price paid by so many Iraqis and Americans. We know this is coming, and we can stop it.

It was about this time in the lead-up to the Iraq war when the other TV networks started following FOX's lead. As CNN's Christiane Amanpour says in the video, they were intimidated by FOX into cheerleading for the Iraq war.

WE CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.

This is a critical moment, and we must send a message to the major television networks urging them to ask tough questions, be skeptical, and tell us what is really happening. They must not follow FOX down the road to another war.

We've put together an open letter to the networks. Will you sign it?

Please pssst the video and forward it to everyone you know. We must raise our voices now. This is so important, we cannot let history repeat itself.

P.S. Here are some recent articles on the Iran issue:

"Prelude to an attack on Iran" (Bob Baer, Time)
