		<description><![CDATA[http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&amp;aid=32127

&quot;Members of the Free Syrian Army (FSA) are not just tied to al-Qaeda, the CIA-funded fake Islamic terrorist group, they ARE al-Qaeda. In a video of members of the FSA, these men are brandishing AK-47s provided to them by the CIA and have al-Qaeda flags flying in the background.

Al-Qaeda has been used by the US government in insurgent recruitment and in destabilizing Middle Eastern governments. The new recruits, being trained by the CIA in Turkey, then being allocated to the FSA and being used to destroy the Syrian government are directly tied to al-Qaeda. In the mainstream media, al-Qaeda is still touted as a separate terrorist organization with no ties to the US government.

The false flag assertion of Syrian chemical weapons is giving the international community the necessary fuel to support the US/Israeli military attack of Syria. It is being kept secret from the general public with the assistance of the MSM that the murder of Syrian civilians is being committed by the FSA under the direction of the CIA, the script being played out to keep Assad’s armies under foot with “little chance of turning defeat into victory.”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[agreed.

personally i would beware of using terms like &#039;&lt;i&gt;phony&lt;/i&gt; leftists&#039;. such people are just common-or-garden &#039;leftists&#039;. God finds a use for them, despite their shortcomings and impurities.

such a usage may indeed serve as a useful vent for your own justified anger and frustration, but at the expense of hypostatizing a merely hypothetical category of real, or non-phony leftists. the search for this powerful and ideologically pure clique may distract from other pursuits. additionally, &#039;phony&#039;, though undoubtedly emotive, is not a particularly useful term in polemic.

EXAMPLE (from Harold Pinter&#039;s play &lt;i&gt;The Balham Group&lt;/i&gt;)

A: Brin, sorry to have to be the one to tell you, but our group has decided that you are a &lt;b&gt;phony leftist&lt;/b&gt;!
B: ..........(silence).............(weeps, uncontrollably).......Oh, My Gawd! thank you so much for pointing that out, Alexia. i shall at once initiate a thorough-going review of all my opinions and actions. you have saved me from a fate worse than death.
A: don&#039;t mention it - it&#039;s all part of the job.

credits roll. Meryl Streep simulates masturbation to the accompaniment of a video of a Jean-Michel Jarre Millenium spectacular. 

humanity throws off its enemies, and evolves. the earth is saved.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;this sort of propaganda is not new&quot;

No, that&#039;s not new, but what is new is that now --with the exception of the internet for the time being -- it is unopposed: there is no piece of media left, not even a small town modest paper, that has not been bought/co-opted. It&#039;s wall to wall propaganda. The fact that there are various flavors of it from &quot;progressive&quot; to far right deceives people into believing there are distinct voices being heard.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[i had read of both creel and bernays being behind ww1 propaganda, selling the war to the american public, but not read the details of their operation. i wasn&#039;t aware the media was so well controlled back even then. connecting their deceit with the current deceptive propaganda of phony leftists such as amy goodman provides a good example how this sort of propaganda is not new. it&#039;s been around 100 years and the fascists, and now especially the ziofascists, have steadily honed their propaganda over the years to make it more effective.

but they are still selling war crimes and are therefore war criminals. that&#039;s one thing that needs to be understood. these people are knowingly helping in the murders of 1000&#039;s and it doesn&#039;t phase them a bit. what sort of person knowingly helps murder 1000&#039;s? this is what makes these modern day goebbelsians so heinous.]]></description>
