Everything Western Media Report About Russia Is
a Big Fat Lie:
By Stephen Lendman
August 22, 2015 "Information

- Vital truths are systematically suppressed. Willful
disinformation, distortions and bald-faced lies substitute - why
Western media are called presstitutes, making street whores look
good by comparison. More on this below.
Longstanding regime change
plans lie at the root of US anti-Russian policy - not how the
country is governed, its geopolitical agenda or who leads it.
Previous articles explained.
Washington wants
pro-Western stooge governance replacing Russia’s sovereign
independence, its vast land mass balkanized for easier control,
its resources looted, its people exploited like serfs - a pure
evil Hitlerian agenda wrapped in the American flag.
Outlandish anti-Russian
propaganda rages - way exceeding hostile Cold War rhetoric.
Virtually all major Western publications and electronic media
are in lockstep - reporting vicious Big Lies instead of hard
truths.
Nonexistent “Russian
aggression” is the common denominator along with calling Putin
an existential threat - perhaps to US hegemonic aims, nothing
else.
“Vladimir Putin Hides the
Truth,” claimed
New York Times editors -
about war in Ukraine Washington and its Kiev proxies bear full
responsibility for waging.
They continue blaming
Moscow for downing MH17 despite clear evidence proving one of
more Ukrainian warplanes were responsible.
“Don’t back down on
sanctions,” they blustered” - ignoring their illegality and harm
to EU countries imposing them, yielding to US pressure against
their own best interests and common sense.
“Who
Threatens America Most,” they asked? They quoted
incoming Joint Chiefs chairman General “fighting Joe” Dunford
calling Russia the top “existential threat” Washington faces.
In testimony before
congressional committees, other US officials say the same thing
- despite no evidence suggesting it, plenty indicating
otherwise.
Times editors continue
promoting the Big Fat Lie about “Russian aggression” - claiming
hordes of its forces invaded Ukraine, yet no one spotted them
because none exist.
Last May,
Bloomberg outrageously claimed Russia uses “mobile
crematoriums” to hide its nonexistent war dead. The source: NATO
and US officials.
In March, former US
Assistant Defense Secretary/current Deputy NATO
Secretary-General (de facto boss) Alexander Vershbow lied saying
“Russian leaders are less and less able to conceal the fact that
Russian soldiers are fighting - and dying - in large numbers in
eastern Ukraine.”
“The Russians are trying
to hide their casualties by taking mobile crematoriums with
them. They are trying to hide not only from the world but from
the Russian people their involvement.”
Fact: No Russian
aggression exists nor does any evidence suggest it’s planned.
Vershbow flat-out lied claiming otherwise.
Fact: Putin, Sergey Lavrov
and other Russian officials are consummate peacemakers.
Fact: US-led NATO and
Israel support endless wars of aggression. They represent the
world’s greatest existential threat - risking mass annihilation
advancing their imperial agendas.
The Economist is a
London-based propaganda mouthpiece for wealth and power
interests - operating since the mid-19th century.
In the last year alone, it
published numerous Russia-bashing articles - claiming
nonexistent “Russian aggression,” provocative Western
confrontation, and posing a greater threat than during the 1962
missile crisis.
Canada’s largest
circulation national newspaper (its New York Times equivalent),
the
Globe and Mail,
published a late July right-wing Prime Minister Stephen Harper
op-ed headlined “Our duty is to stand in the face of Russian
aggression,” saying:
“There can be no weakening
of our resolve to punish the Putin regime for threatening the
peace and security of eastern and central Europe.”
Harper’s government
partners with America’s imperial wars. Canadian warplanes bombed
Libya in 2011. They’re currently attacking Syrian targets on the
pretext of fighting ISIS.
Canadian like American
media scoundrels lie for power - substituting propaganda for
what people need to know.
Obama boasts about bombing
seven countries since taking office. “I have not shied away from
using force when necessary,” he blustered.
Including against
Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Syria, Somalia and Yemen, as
well as partnering in Israeli wars - plus covert destabilizing
operations in Venezuela, Ecuador, Iran and numerous other
countries worldwide, naked aggression and lawless interference
in the internal affairs of other countries.
Russia and China represent
America’s final frontier. Its master plan calls for asserting
dominance over both nations - the only challengers to its
hegemonic aims, risking nuclear war to achieve them.
Instead of condemning the
madness of possible mass annihilation, media scoundrels march in
lockstep with recklessness threatening everyone.
