- "Pravda" in Russian means truth.
The former Soviet newspaper, Pravda, it may be recalled, was not a fact
and truth-disseminating journalistic endeavor, but rather one limited only
to propaganda. All news events were viewed through a template that engineered
news reporting to make all events appear favorable to the communist state.
-
- Here in America, to ensure that truth
was part and parcel of our everyday culture, the First Amendment was established
to protect it as voiced by a free and independent press. A free press
serves as the people's watchdog to ferret out government fraud, abuse,
waste and corruption.
-
- The great bastion of America's free press
was, of course, The New York Times. It has been regally referred to as
"America's newspaper of record." Amongst journalists, its regal
moniker is offered as journalism's "Gray Lady." The grayness
of black print upon white paper was the backdrop for its motto: "All
the news that's fit to print."
-
- But the cynicism and sarcasm exhibited
by the Clinton administration, with its frequent peccadilloes and dedication
to the New World Order in selling out to Communist China our missile guidance
systems for cash and contracts, as well as its partnering with Jimmy Carter's
foolhardy transfer of the Panama Canal to China, provided more than enough
ammunition for Rush Limbaugh to assail not only the bumbling incompetence,
ineptitude, and treasonous alliances redolent of allegiance to a New World
Order, but to target as well the left-liberal establishment media that
protected their un-American activities. And right there, and out in front
and blocking for this left-liberal buffoonery bolstering the compassionate
security and protection envisioned as the single global government of the
New World Order, was The New York Times.
-
- The Times became the lead media blocker
for leftists, Marxists, socialists and communists. The Times was reduced
to a bastion of anti-American propaganda, and it was a relatively easy
charge to make and an even easier one to prove and make stick.
-
- Reference was made recalling the Stalin-initiated
mass starvation murders of approximately eight million Ukrainians in the
Soviet Union in 1932, covered up by the sugar-coated falsehoods of New
York Times reporter Walter Duranty. Duranty was awarded the Pulitzer Prize
that year by the Marxist, leftist Columbia Graduate School of Journalism,
yet another American communist stronghold.
-
- Fast forward to the era of neoconservative,
right-wing fascist blab radio, and the Times obliged Limbaugh with the
Jason Blair scandal. This was followed by their total spiking of the Downing
Street Memo citing the typical excuse for spiking a front page "EXTRA":
"It was old news." "Liberal" Jeff Cohen and his journalistic
watchdog group, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting [FAIR], wrote blistering
editorials in the organization's Internet publication denouncing the Times
for spiking this vital story so crucial to both the nation's survival and
truth.
-
- And then there was the Judith Miller
fraud wherein she splattered the front pages of the "newspaper of
record" with falsehoods in reporting Saddam and Iraq's "weapons
of mass destruction" in total propagandist support of the criminal
Bush regime. Leftie Evan Cornog, an associate dean of the Marxist Columbia
Graduate School of Journalism, sobbed over the demise of journalism and
the jailing of Miller because of her refusal to disclose her source in
the Valeria Plame outing perpetrated by the criminal Bush regime. How
can a dean of the leading graduate school of journalism and the editor
of the institution's publication be so totally uninformed and out of touch
with the real facts?
-
- James Risen, a New York Times reporter,
has recently released a book: State of War - The Secret History of the
CIA and the Bush Administration, published this year by Free Press [New
York], a division of Simon and Schuster. Early in the book, and occasionally
throughout its easily readable text, Risen seems to drift in and out of
reality seemingly justifying and rationalizing the actions of the criminal
Bush administration. Said another way, the truth is "in there,"
just as was accorded to a certain brand of tomato sauce; but one must be
careful to look for it. No daydreaming or just reading words without transmuting
them to concepts and facts - pay attention!
-
- Yes, Risen accuses the criminal Bush
administration of taking direct orders from Israel, the only beneficiary
of the war in Iraq. Here's how Risen puts it: "The most noteworthy
exception [regarding silent Republican moderates objecting to Bush's neocon
insanity] was Brent Scowcroft, who had served as national security advisor
to the first President Bush, and who inadvertently went public with his
concerns when he gave what he thought was a background interview to the
Financial Times, saying that he feared George W. Bush had been 'mesmerized'
by Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon."
-
- Risen's book blasted lose the story concerning
the National Security Agency's assignment via the signed and sealed Bush
Executive Order that launched illegal spying on American citizens that
the New York Times had been sitting on for a year. "All the news
that's fit to print?" Yeah, right! The only reason James Risen's
book was published by what author Truman Capote labeled as the "Jewish
Mafia" of publishing, was probably due to the book's being a potential
blockbuster and profit-maker. The book is acceptable because a "go-easy"
approach relating to Bush and Israel is observed by the author. And as
a reporter for the Times, a little indiscretion here and there was obviously
deemed tolerable.
-
- As has been offered in this space many
times in the past, the "newspaper of record" sets the tone for
reporting in virtually all sectors of journalism, including radio and television.
If the Times doesn't find an event newsworthy, then neither will any evening
TV news report or round-the-clock cable TV news channel. The Times has
therefore become the criminal Bush administration's number one propagandist
and protector.
-
- So, from where will the truth emerge
in America revealing the horrific war crimes and criminal activities of
the Nazi Bush administration? As always, when a criminal state has such
magnificent protection given to it by the journalistic source the people
trust most, the only additional cover that is needed is time. As astonishing
events quickly wither in the public's easily erased memory, time throws
up an impenetrable wall of protection shielding statist terror and tyranny.
-
- Entering from the real stage left, the
"newspaper of record" of the former Soviet Union, Russia's Pravda,
has let lose with a blockbuster headline story. Of course, the uninformed
captive audience that is America, trained to wallow in statist adulation,
reverence and total worship, has been, and continues to be, isolated and
incubated in ignorance.
-
- In his posting on Pravda's website on
February 16th, Jack Duggan in his piece entitled, "There is no war
on terrorism," offers: "All the stories we see in the TV news,
print and Internet media today are like mice in a small room occupied by
a grizzly bear. We can see the bear, hear him panting and growling as
he attempts to stomp on us, but everyone pretends he's just not there,
even though he's eating all the food and we mice are starving."
-
- Duggan continues: "The bear is the
U.S. government and media cover up of the 9/11 attacks. They never came
close to proving that foreign 'terrorists' were involved. Of all four
missing planes' passenger manifests, not one Middle Easterner was on any
of them.

-
- A jihadist who is bravely going to his
death for the sake of his beliefs in Allah and Islam is a martyr and wants
the whole world to know it. Martyr's families receive reverential praise
and support in their communities for decades. Yet not one of the 'terrorists'
the American http://english.pravda.ru/cis/2001/09/25/16199.html government insists were on the aircraft used
their real names or were listed on the passenger lists. At least seven
of the nineteen 'hijackers' are still alive.

History/9-11/9-11_hijackers_still_alive.htm
-
- Had Duggan's article appeared on the
front pages of the New York Times, the Nazi Bush regime's stranglehold
on America would be over. Our troops would be recalled from Iraq. The
Cheney-Rumsfeld planned invasion of Iran launching World War III would
be cancelled. The USA PATRIOT Act would be justifiably abolished. Bush,
Cheney, Rove and Rumsfeld would all be impeached and made to stand trial
in The Hague for their horrific war crimes against humanity.
-
- Constitutional rights and freedoms would
be restored to America and Americans. But as long as "The Gray Lady"
remains voiceless, and the only opposition is framed in what has traditionally
and historically manifested itself as the natural political opposition
that is the left in the form of Democrats, socialists and Marxists, the
neo-Nazi neoconservative criminal Bush regime will continue to soar with
high-flying predatory fascist birds of prey, war and tyranny.
-
- Pravda's Duggan again: "The 9/11
attacks were created for justification of U.S. covert plans to grab influence
over oil politics in the Middle East and as an excuse to take away the
rest of Americans' liberties through a manufactured threat-scenario called,
'The War On Terror.' What good are all the thousands of articles about
politics, global warming, education, scandals, religion, economics and
how we must always go out and vote so that we can 'make a difference'?
If our votes really did make a difference, they'd be illegal."
-
- Duggan, on a roll, continues: "Who
cares about such articles when the cover up of what really happened on
9/11 is [a] hands-off, untouchable leper? What good are they when in the
name of a phony 'terrorist attack,' our way of life no longer exists except
at the pleasure of corporate-driven federal socialists? We are being starved
of our liberties by an ursus horribulus that stomps every mouse who dares
get in his way or mention that he's there. I see a lot of authors write
all around the grizzly bear, almost approaching the truth, but none seem
to have the conviction to call for an open door to run the bear out of
the house. Our Founding Fathers would have made a bearskin rug.
-

-
- I will tell you here and tell you now
with no equivocation: THE 9/11 ATTACKS WERE NOT DONE BY 'TERRORISTS.'
-
- 9-11 is indeed the Achilles' heel and
primary launching pad for the Bush regime's neo-Nazism. As the Bush criminals
supersede one outrage over another journalistically to distract the public
from the crucial issue of the systematic abolition of America's tradition
of individual freedom, a return to the facts surrounding 9-11 compared
to the critically needed fiction of the Bush dictatorship, will serve marvelously
to open the skylight needed to shed light upon the Frankenstein monster
that is the gothic horror of Bush, Cheney, Rove and Rumsfeld.
