Award Winning CNN Journalist On CNN Propaganda

Amber Lyon of CNN turned down their corporate media buy-off money to silence her after her Bahrain reporting was axed because it told the truth that the USA supports regimes where there are oil or geopolitical interests. 

This extraordinary interview from Emmy Award winning journalist talks about the chilling effect of Obama prosecuting more jounalists and whistleblowers than any President in history. Hope and Change? Hopeless Change. You'll see.

In fairness to Amber the specific response that Alex Jones isn't a conspiracy theorist is about the TSA no fly lists for reporters who speak up. I disagree with plenty of Alex Jones as much as I agree with plenty of Alex Jones. That's what real opinion formers do. They form opinions rather than take their instruction from an agreed list of voices.

Hat's off to Amber Lyons for taking a stand. We applaud her courage and stand for truth and journalistic freedom.

Double Indemnity

Double Indemnity is kind of like Dostoevsky's Crime & Punishment set on Hollywood Boulevards with insurance payouts. For me Jean Heather playing Lola Dietrichson is the movie candy. Very cute. There's a little bit of synchronicity with Bhowani Junction as trains play a major part in the movie.

If you have any black and white movies you recommend very highly leave a comment below. I'll download it and review it.

Israel's Land Grabbing Ways

Earlier today I was watching a Walt & Mearsheimer academic presentation about the Israeli lobby's control of US politics. They were viciously attacked for publishing a scholarly analysis of the matter by AIPAC and the other Israeli lobby groups that Congress doesn't have the courage to stand up to, but for my taste they weren't tough enough and apologised too much for the statements they were making. Lately the most authoritive voice on the matter is Grant F Smith of IRMEP.org , who also unearthed the FOIA FBI documents that prove Netanyahu illegally smuggled nuclear triggers out of the US in the eighties.

I don't like haters of any hue or colour so it's important to attach robustly but with humour and no hate. Make your own mind up here as he debates Ruthie Blum who makes my skin crawl. You'll see what I mean.
