Syria and UN Security Council Decision

Oopsie, journalists with integrity left start quiting Al Jazeera which the Emir of Qatar turned into his mouthpiece lately, denouncing "provocative" bias in the Syria issue ... will this have an echo in the western corporate media which willfully parrots their obvious lies and distortions?


Translation: How dare Al-Jazeera tell the truth about what's happening in Syria! Why can't they just lie for the ruling sadist brutes, like they did in Iran? I don't like them anymore. Why can't they be more like RT and Prison-Planet.com?
 
How is the killing going in Syria today, and how well is that Russian peace agenda working?

Anyone?

Bueller?
 
Yeah, I'm sure that was their line of thought. :rolleyes:

Unlike some jaded individuals, I have no doubt that when Jazeera reports on Israeli "crimes against humanity" you will simply refuse to post their reporting or opinion pieces as a result of their newly "compromised state."

:wackywink:

How dare anyone suggest that you sympathize with international actors who assume anti-American/Israeli/Western positions!

That's not what Sgt Doom suggested.

I have a feeling that the peace agenda will start taking effect right after the Syrian forces wipe out the armed groups in the resisting municipalities.

Then they'll sweep up some pockets of resistance and then they'll hunt down the remaining "loose ends".

And then: dialogue!
 
I guess JJ wants us to intervene in their internal affairs when the protests remain uneventful, but want us to keep out of their business when the government starts to kill protesters....

It seems to me that many members of the Galloway left were very excited by the protests and uprisings in Egypt, Bahrain, Tunisia and Yemen. But not so much in Lebanon, Iran, Libya and Syria. In fact, the response has been exactly opposite! :confused:

She thinks the media in the US, the UK, France, Canada and Germany are all "in on it", but they covered the uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia pretty much the same way they are covering the situation in Syria.

Black and white thinking often leads to confusion because the world isn't black and white.
 
Yes, of course. Although this may appear to be a case of absurd, self-serving hypocrisy, it's actually just a result of the world being multi-shaded.

The fact that the first group of nations just happened to be generally aligned with The Great Satan, while the second group just happened to be generally opposed to TGS is, I'm now convinced, purely coincidental.

When it comes to the "humanitarians" over at Galloway central, one must always resist the temptation to jump to conclusions. :covereyes

You sure spend a lot of time extolling how nuanced your thinking is Jane. But what does your post content actually consist of? Spammed articles from pro-Assad propaganda outlets.

What a sweet and reassuring conspiracy theory!
 
More from the ex-Al Jazeera journalists:


The "landmine" story seems to originate with a McClatchy reporter staying in Turkey who got the story and an "exemplary" landmine brought to him over the border by "resident rebels". Lebanon and Iraq have stated their commitment to secure the borders and don't allow arms and armed death squads in. Turkey, Israel and Jordan - not to my knowledge. Stay tuned.
 
I must admit that at first glance the correlation seems obvious and powerful.

But your "the world isn't black and white" argument cleared everything up.

I no longer hold the opinion that the Galloway mouth breathers are simply reactionaries who view raw savagery visited upon courageous men and women as opportunities to indulge their Matrix inspired fantasies.

Indeed, it's always wise to treat analyses based of first glances with skepticism.

What a pretty word salad, though it suffers from the lack of sexual smear and baby-killing/-eating.

So, Assad had his private eMail-account hacked and the files were leaked to the Guardian, who published them today. Mostly trivialities, no secret holocaust planning, in fact so few dirt that ... well, it's a good example of how far the propaganda goes. Even the Guardian tows the party line and makes stuff up.

Here, exclusive announcement of the publication.

Second sub-headline: "Leader made light of promised reforms".

In the text further down we read:

The Guardian said:
Assad made light of reforms he had promised in an attempt to defuse the crisis, referring to "rubbish laws of parties, elections, media".


The link goes directly to the published eMail in question. As if they assume nobody will ever click on it. Well, I did, here is the full content:

Bashar al-Assad said:
This is the best reform any country can have that u told me where will you be, we are going to adopt it instead of the rubbish laws of parties, elections, media.......


So, "rubbish" is obviously what he calls the existing laws which he didn't invent when he came to power as a thirty-something medical doctor educated in "the West". Shame on you, Guardian.

The distinction between Assad and the System which has to be reformed is made by many, many Syrians, impressivly demonstrated again today, by pro-Assad mass rallies all over the country, here for example in Damascus and Aleppo.

Meanwhile, the pathetic SNC who now "demands" military intervention from "the West", has lost three more key members:

PressTV said:
[...] According to a Syrian National Council (SNC) official, Haitham al-Maleh, Kamal al-Labwani and rights activist Catherine al-Telli left the main opposition bloc due to their "disagreements" with the SNC.

Al-Labwani, however, said that they resigned because they did not want to be "accomplices to the massacre of the Syrian people.'' He also accused head of SNC Burhan Ghalioun of running the organization autocratically.

The SNC is "linked to foreign agendas which aim to prolong the battle while waiting ... for the country to be dragged into a civil war," said al-Labwani, adding that "There is no council, it's an illusion."

He also said that many more will quit the council in the coming days.

Al-Maleh said he was quitting over lack of cooperation in the council and al-Telli cited the SNC's "inefficiency" on "certain personalities and political trends" as the reason for her resignation. [...]


And before the Nazi-right starts the obligatory whining about the source: The quotes are from their facebook pages, the SNC has confirmed their resignment and "western" outlets report the same.

The propaganda facade is crumbling more and more.
