CITIZENS COUNTER-PROPAGANDA

September 15, 1970, was a dramatic day in the life of Chilean media mogul, Agustin Edwards Eastman. His day began at 8am, with breakfast in the office of Henry Kissinger, then national security advisor to President Richard Nixon. At 9:15am, Kissinger had arranged for Edwards to secretly see Nixon in the Oval Office. Although there is no documentary record that the meeting with the president took place, later that day at the Madison Hotel in downtown Washington D.C., Edwards became the only Chilean—civilian or military—known to meet face-to-face with CIA Director Richard Helms. At 3:25pm that afternoon, President Nixon called Kissinger and Helms into the Oval Office and instructed them to covertly try to “save Chile” by orchestrating a military takeover. “I have this impression that the president called this meeting,” Helms later testified before the U.S. Senate, “because of Edwards’ presence in Washington and what … Edwards was saying about conditions in Chile.”

Since the beginning of the war on Yemen, Saudi Arabia with help from its ally UAE has turned Yemen into a fertile breeding ground for al-Qaeda and Daesh. Terrorist camps have spread across the occupied Yemeni provinces and terrorists have been sighted fighting side by side with Saudi forces and mercenaries. In March 2020, terrorist elements committed a heinous crime by intercepting a car carrying a family. They killed the head of the family, his wife, and their only child in the Dhahra area of al-Qurashiyah district.

How does American military hegemony project itself? By relying on its aircraft carrier combat groups.
The United States is far from Eurasia, so the US Army has little effect, relying on the Navy to deter other countries, and the Navy mainly refers to aircraft carriers, which is purely an offensive weapon.
The earliest navy relied on battleships. This is the big ship cannonism. 
The pinnacle of this thinking was the Japanese Yamato battleship, but the emergence of the aircraft carrier quickly eliminated the battleship. The Yamato built by Japan ’s national effort, was almost [rendered] ineffectual.  The aircraft carrier eliminated the battleship because the battleship ’s guns could not hit the aircraft carrier, and the aircraft carrier ’s carrier-based aircraft could hit the battleship. Since then, it has been the world of aircraft carriers.

PAUL STREET—Damaged young men and adolescents like the Kenosha street-shooter Kyle Rittenhouse, a Trump fan and police devotee (his social media account is filled with “Blue Lives Matter” posts) are being sparked into a fascistic frenzy by a fascist president, a white-nationalist (Republican) party, and neofascist media outlets who tell them that the Great White Fatherland is under existential assault from Communist totalitarians masquerading as civil and human rights advocates and allied with the other leading national party – the supposedly “radical Left” Democrats.

CAITLIN JOHNSTONE—Like many other forms of bigotry, this one has been engineered and promulgated by powerful people who benefit from it. If the mainstream news media were what it purports to be, namely an institution dedicated to creating an informed populace about what’s truthfully going on in the world, we would see the bombings in foreign nations given the same type of coverage that a bombing in Paris or London receives.

This would immediately bring consciousness to the unconscious bigotry that those in the US-centralized empire hold against people in low and middle income countries, which is exactly why the plutocrat-owned media do not report on it in this way. The US-centralized empire is held together by endless violence, and the plutocrats who run it have built their kingdoms upon the status quo of that empire.
