Person of the Year: time to look beyond the obvious : Comments

By Bashir Goth, published 29/12/2016

The men and women of Syrian Civil Defence, known as ‘Syrian White Helmets’, deserve the title as they sacrifice their lives to rescue those trapped in the war zone.

Hi Killarney,

I'm terribly sorry, but when you wrote

"I'm sure there are a lot of imperial warmongering Swedes who'd just love to get Finland back. .... Ditto Britain, France, Spain and Portugal. Let's do the same to them - just in case that old imperial itch starts up again.... "

I thought you were elaborating on the issue of imperialism. On your check-list of the evils of imperialism: where would Russia NOT fit in ? They probably even have their version of Hollywood, busy filming their bare-chested Great Leader, who, by the way, owns much of the neo-Tsarist media, RT for example.

Ah yes, it's after 10.00 am, so I guess it's okay to let the useful idiots out - but be sure you're back by 4.00 pm. Boy, I had fun writing THAT cheap shot.

Cheers,

Joe

I think many of you guys find the idea of staged events and false flag attacks incomprehensible.
It seems to me that for many of you it's just beyond your belief systems to accept these things occur.

When the corporate news tells Australians Assad committed chemical attacks on his own people Aussies generally believe it.
The don't question the media the way they should.

The war in Syria has gone on since 2011.
If people think there are no 'soft war' measures in both manipulating the public, and acts intended to push governments or the UN to commit more to the war effort or act in regards to it, they are sorely mistaken.

Look how many got it wrong with Hillary's Presidential campaign.
They're lying to you; they're not trying to inform anyone any less than influence them, so that they can get away with more without the public's objections.
In this way they're not trying to give anyone the news at all any less than attempt to actually create the news.

People better wake up because we have what could almost be considered civil wars brewing in almost every western nation, national sovereignty being under attack by globalism using refugees and immigration to divide and conquer with many nations leaders seemingly acting complicit.

Hi AC,

Love that logic:

* that animal is not a cat;

* this animal here is not a cat either;

* that animal there is not a cat either;

* therefore, that other animal over there is not a cat.

Thanks for those apologetics for Assad and his Russian cronies.

Cheers,

Joe

Hey Loudmouth,
Not quite sure what you're trying to say...

Here's an interesting article about the 'White Helmets' dated yesterday.

http://www.globalresearch.ca/u-s-uk-paid-white-helmets-help-al-qaeda-blocking-water-to-5-million-thirsty-syrians/5566309

They're involved in the current Wadi Barada blockade of water to 5 million people in Damascus, as a reprisal for the liberation of Aleppo.

The 'White Helmets' motto is "We act neutrally, impartially and for all Syrians".
Yeah, right... whatever.

Sorry, AC,

If A is not a cat, and neither is B, C, D or E,

then F is not a cat.

Okay: one story, you claim, was untrue. Another story was also, you claim, untrue. Therefore this other story is untrue.

i.e. if A, B, C and D are untrue, therefore E is untrue. Can you see that there is no necessary connection between any of them ? You can infer, suspect, imply, even assert and tentatively conclude, but not conclusively.

How's that ?

Joe
