CAITLIN JOHNSTONE—Israel propaganda looks like the IDF publishing a computer-generated video of a multi-level Hamas command headquarters underneath Al-Shifa Hospital.
Palestine propaganda looks like humanitarian organizations saying Israel has been bombing hospitals throughout Gaza and shooting patients through hospital windows.
FRANK SCOTT—This has led to the most blatant attack not only on the bodies of the people in the region but on the consciousness of those who have been kept blessedly ignorant of material conditions and are now having their minds raped by western propaganda which in the present labels everything and anything as fascist or communist or racist for simply demanding equality among all and ending the supremacy of some of the most morally degenerate leaders in all history.
EDITOR—There’s a tremendous amount of disinformation and number of outright lies being spread by Israeli officials and their apologists about the assault on Gaza. Journalist and political commentator Caitlin Johnstone has compiled what she believes are the ten biggest lies currently circulating as a means of spreading pro-Israeli propaganda. Jimmy and his guests Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss from Due Dissidence discuss these lies one at a time and comment on each.
EDITOR—Content like this, featuring images of terrible suffering by Palestinians in the latest clash between Gaza and Israel highlights the shameless hypocrisy of the West as it applies selective empathy to the media coverage assigned to this immense tragedy. We don’t see ppl crying on the mainstream media when it’s Palestinians. We don’t see Dana Bash, Anderson Cooper and their ilk tearing up over these images. What we do see is how effectively they bury such material.
EDITOR—This is Brian Berletic’s superior analysis of developments in the Middle East, as the US and its client states maneuver to regain the offensive vis a vis the Multipolar world. Brian notes how Israel is playing is cards to attain sustainability in its attack on Gaza, while the US explores avenues to provoke a war with Iran on the basis of a policy paper prepared in 2009 by the Brookings Institution, one of many “national security” think tanks that study and suggest ways for Washington to deploy its economic, propaganda and military resources to conquer targeted nations and achieve global hegemony.
