Fisk: Beirut waits as Syrian masters send Hezbollah allies into battle

''Within hours, a country that had begun to believe in peace - without a single Syrian soldier left on its soil - found itself once more at war.'' - Who or what is the root of all evil?

Concerning the article by Fisk: it's also published in Beirut - but with a warning.

YOU SHOULD KNOW THE WELL YOU ARE DRINKING FROM:

HR-comment: Robert Fisk is a very good journalist/writer in many ways. He, however, suffers from the same elephant syndrome as the group of his colleagues: the animal is big and in the room, but nobody talks about it. Mostly out of fear of ending up as bloody pulp underneath the huge stampeding feet. Like Chomsky, Zinn, Hitchens, and thousands more. It's not difficult to agree with a lot of what those writers - like Robert Fisk - are publishing, but most of them belong to this sometimes influential group of 'critical' text producers, which is good at describing many of the horrible symptoms, but concerning the origins of the disease has emasculated itself. And is silent about the real root of all evil.*

Sometimes one wonders, and many will not really be surprised to find out, that some of those writers which did not want to collaborate, had a gun put to their head. The US/PNAC junta, with it's 'Lie Factory' and 'War is Peace' propaganda on Internet, spends $billions on psychological pro-warfare, and bullets are cheap. Especially when uninformed and belied taxpayers everywhere are forced to foot the war bills with their lives and money. Dying by 'friendly fire' or being 'suicided' seems to be in vogue b.t.w - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/m9pyx

When writers or speakers use Washington's official version of the 9/11 'inside job' - and even try to defend it - one knows that they are lying through their teeth: lying to all of us. They are collaborating with the warmongers in power which own all major media in the world. Those so called 'intellectuals' are 'sell outs', ignorants or threatened, if they for instance write or speak about the holocaust of the Palestinians without pointing their ink stained c.q. PC-radiated fingers at the 'managers' in the US or Israel and their cruel genocidal regime. Not passing those simple tests in objectivity, is evidence that the water in the well is poisoned.

If deemed necessary for the global brainwash, Spielberg or some other Hollywood pimp makes a movie of the pack of lies. They put some truth in it, and globally 'sell' the manure via their cable TV outlets and other major propaganda media they own and misuse. When you read the article by Fisk, you'll smell the stench of the direction, and what he wants you to believe. But, be assured: they fertilize the battlefields and are guilty of crimes against humanity.

AN ACCEPTABLE SOURCE OF INFORMATION IS LOCAL 'THE DAILY STAR' IN LEBANON/BEIRUT:

VILLAGES OF SOUTH BEAR BRUNT OF ONSLAUGHT

Israel pounded "hundreds of sites" in Lebanon Thursday, leaving at least 55 dead and over 100 wounded, including children, mostly in villages across the South. Health Minister Mohammad Jawad Khalife said the ministry had anticipated Israeli attacks, sending 50 to 60 tons of medication and fluids to hospitals in the South before supply.

So, let's be very careful when reading or watching: whichever self-proclaimed 'authority' they think they are or whatever medium is used:

Never believe anything they say, until they start denying it!

Based on more than forty years of experience as an independent foreign correspondent, I have to keep warning: The Independent, The Observer and The Guardian are examples of treacherous sources of information which are absolutely NOT to be trusted. maybe somebody remembers 'Tiny' Rowland?

They nearly all - the BBC is the worst with two percent war dissent - use the same worn out, but still effective formula: 25% criticism makes the average reader swallow the 75% lies, fakes and propaganda as well. It's war time, and the whole British media - and that includes Fisk and the other 'elephant boys' - are under pressure and censorship in the whole UK of the infamous D-Notice. - Url.: http://www.serendipity.li/cda/dnot.html

GOOGLE - It has to be taken into account that Google is very biased and hardly ever has an alternative 'news' source, helps the Lie Factory's censoring - in China too - and uses full time 'web strippers' and 'gatekeepers' to 'fix the facts around the policy'. Otherwise they - like all of them - wouldn't be allowed to proceed.

CIA paid 'Reporters Without Borders' protests journalist killings?

What's the fuzz? - Even Robert Fisk in Beirut was always 'embedded' - but he was too far away under the cover, so we didn't see him...

TV STATION: VEHICLE WAS CLEARLY MARKED WITH TV LOGO

by Henk Ruyssenaars

FPF - July 14th 2006 - ''Voicing concern about attacks on journalists in Lebanon in the past 48 hours and the lack of resources being deployed to protect them, Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has called Thursday on the Israeli authorities to investigate the circumstances in which three journalists with the Lebanese television station New TV were injured on Wednesday.''

'Reporters Without Borders' covers this too, not because human beings nearly are killed or an illegal war massacre is going on, but because of the owners, which are not Lebanese.

To better understand the machinations, and know some more about this fishy organisation RWB which is very pro-US, pro-Israel and pro-Cuban resistance' against Castro - there is a story below. Including the unmasking of RWB, when it was shown that they actually serve other masters than human beings, colleagues in journalism or integrity.

A spokesman for the station 'New TV' said: "The three journalists did not hear the helicopter arrive and do not remember what happened after the shots were fired, recovering consciousness in hospital. Their lives are not in danger. They were taken to Nabatiye hospital 70 km southeast of Beirut." - It apparently didn't matter to the israeli armed forces that the TV car was clearly marked: those people could have been 'collateral damage' - as the illegal murderers in uniform excuse it - they could have been dead 'by mistake'.

KILLING JOURNALISTS HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN OPTION

But killing even their own journalists, or forcing them as 'embedded' or otherwise to put their name under the biggest pro war crap published, seems to spread with the speed of a bullet. Killing, as we know, has always been an option in the war of opinion. If you do not tow the war criminals line, you are 'silenced'.*

According to former 'BBC Chief News correspondent' Kate Adie - who was fired because she was honest - and who also covered the first and likewise illegal Gulf War, the Pentagon's attitude is: "entirely hostile to the the free spread of information." - Of course the US kills journalists and 'suicides' them. And not only by 'friendly fire' - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/bkzum

When a month ago the Pentagon's 'Lie Factory' via the US defence department’s chief spokesperson, Victoria Clarke, confirmed 'to be very happy' with all utterly controlled c.q. 'embedded' stenographers/megaphones of the warmongers in power, creatures now advocating the massacres and formerly known as 'journalists', Reporters without Borders sans one word of 'critique' ruminated the propaganda: ''Satisfied Pentagon plans to repeat embedding" was their 'Breaking News'.*

THE PENTAGON WAS VERY HAPPY

Why? Because: ''the Pentagon was very happy with the outcome of the "embedding" of some 700 journalists with US military units during the war in Iraq. During a conference on 17 June on news coverage during the war, she said people appreciated the embedding and would like to do it again. She added that more journalists should be brought into this process next time, especially foreign journalists.

Journalists participating in the conference said they also liked embedding because it gave them direct access to the front lines and a broader perspective. Many TV journalists said being embedded with marines allowed them both to increase the depth of battlefield coverage and avoid censorship to a much greater degree.

BUT CNN JOURNALIST BOB FRANKEN SAID HE AND SOME OF HIS COLLEAGUES HAD TO NUANCE THEIR REPORTING OUT OF LOYALTY TO THE US MILITARY.

Marvin Kalb (from the 'PNAC pack' - HR) - a Harvard university professor and former TV journalist, said everyone was very lucky the embedding formula worked out and this was because the war was short. If the war had been longer, there would have been more American casualties and the existing level of enthusiasm in the Pentagon for embedding might have fallen, he said. - [http://tinyurl.com/kclnd]

IS IT THE SAME IN YOUR COUNTRY?

In The Netherlands, to take just one example, not a single independent newspaper is left. They're all in foreign multinational hands. Like APAX etc. in London. The former 'news agency' ANP (Algemeen Nederlands Persbureau) is owned by the multinational 'Fentener van Vlissingen' - and forks out 'information' that fits the multinationals, again 'fixing the facts around the policy'. The inhuman policy which the 'managers' try to spread in the European Union - which they only see and maltreat as 'a part' of the Empire - is just a blue print of the perverted 'Patriot Acts' and other repressive, robbing and fascist laws, used against the working population everywhere.

Since March 14, 2005 - ALL 'news' and similar information for the NOS, the whole public radio and TV information system in the Netherlands, is in the hands of only ONE man: #1 media politruk Hans Laroes. People know 'Lackey Laroes' as the creature who has made the 8 o'clock 'Journaal' TV broadcast one of the worst government and multinational mouthpieces of propaganda ever. The brainwashing and lobotomy is as profound as in the US.

PROPAGANDA SCAM INSTEAD OF JOURNALISM

The people taking part in this propaganda scam are a shame for what once upon a time was investigative journalism, which now has turned into prompter reading PNAC prostitution. Now, if you're critical towards the society these 'Robbing Hoods' build for themselves - at the expense of all other people - you're out. All critical journalism is killed, sometimes literally* and most of it was done in the last twenty years by the journalists's own Association, the only one allowed in Holland, the NVJ, Nederlandse Vereniging van Journalisten. It follows the same propaganda track as RWB: pro-Israel, pro-US, pro-Cuba 'resistance' and against America's 'enemy' Fidel Castro.

Chairman Ron Abrams - who lived half the year in Israel, the other half he was 'running' the NVJ - saw to the transformation for the worst, and the atrophy of the brains of journalists. They are nearly all silent now. Or dead.

BUT STILL - ACCORDING TO RWB - 'PNAC COLONY' THE NETHERLANDS IS SOME KIND OF ''FLAGSHIP OF PRESS FREEDOM''? - WHO DO THEY THINK THEY'RE SCREWING, BY PRINTING ALL THIS CIA MADE & PAID GARBAGE?

But, Reporters without Border-traitors print a story like this: "RSF Voices Concern over Wounding Journalists by Israel in Lebanon" - and, after picking up their Judas money, try to drown their bad conscience in Pernod or other hard liquor in the next Bistro. Not knowing our meory can swim.

Those CIA paid frauds are willing undertakers of real journalism. Which they like the other war criminals will be judged and punished for as soon as law is valid gain.

WHY? FOR EVERY CRIME THERE IS A DEADLINE.
