Eliminating the context, the media repeats the filthy slanders about Gen.Soleimani the US government is avidly distributing.
[dropcap]J[/dropcap]immy and Max Blumenthal analyse the American media coverage of Gen. Soleimani’s assassination, and how their propaganda whitewashes the obvious criminal aspects of US policies abroad and at home. The second video takes a look at the cowardly and essentially hypocritical way in which the Democrats “oppose” Trump’s imperialist thuggery. In all cases, the mainstream media operate to disseminate official lies, and, equally important, blot out the historical context of events, without which no true understanding or judgment is possible. Listen closely to what Blumenthal is saying.
U.S. News Coverage Of Iran Laughably Horrible
Bonus feature:
Democrats Pretend To Oppose Iran Attack They Enabled
The Repugs are blatant capitalo-imperialists who support heinous crimes in the name of US hegemony and supremacism, but the hypocrisy of the Democrats is even more revolting, because they support the same criminal goals, albeit in an underhanded fashion.

There is a certain naivete in Jimmy Dore’s excellent analyses. What can one expect in a stage of US dominance in the world, whereby it is entirely necessary to keep the local population well prepared for any actions its government wants to take. That is what propaganda is for, and one should study what happened in Germany in the nineteen thirties to understand the power of propaganda. We may not have a strong man in the same manner as Schicklgruber but the forces that drove him are equally present now as they were then.
