Youâre an idiot just arguing for sake of it becausr you are embarrassed for believing alot of the rubbish the western media sells you.
Do you expect yer to answeĆ to every single media outÄșet?
Thats just dumb
Again, youâve written nothing constructive in that post, which is not surprising given that youâre so clearly out of your depth on this topic.
I expect journalists to be able to verify and back up their assertions when challenged, especially when such assertions are absolutely central to the narrative theyâre putting forward.
Do you expect journalists to able to do this, or does your standard of believability merely amount to calling yourself âindependentâ and throwing around unverified and unverifiable assertions and accusations?
Thatâs a pretty low standard of journalistic expectations on your part and one which feeds directly into your views on so many subjects.
Fair play to the Obama administration re the UN and Israeli settlements.

Jesus thats mental. Any statistics on whether theyâre good bombs or bad bombs?
Theyâre American. Theyâre all good bombs silly.
Overall, the U.S. Air Force has expended about $2 billion worth of precision-guided munitions on Islamic State since the start of the campaign in August 2014, dropping more than 40,000, according to Air Force officials. U.S. aircraft have dropped nearly 18 times more weapons on Islamic State than on targets in Afghanistan over the same period.
I hear thereâs a massive famine brewing in North AfricaâŠ
The Somalis should lobby Trump that if he admits all of them to the US, the average rate of obesity in the US will plummet, thereby handing him a much needed âachievementâ in relation to health.
Iâd say heâd buy it, too.
so do you think clinton would have doing anythingâŠno you dont. its a serious situation, death could be in the millions
Do you think Dole would have doing anything?
Thereâs a thesis to be written on the reporting of Mosul vs Aleppo. Two very similar situations (Governments, backed by foreign allies, fighting ISIS in a city under siege) yet Mosul, where itâs spoken about at all, is all about the victories vs ISIS and successes of the Government forces, while Aleppo was all about the civilian casulties. Thousands of civilians killed in Mosul, yet no one talking about it.

Eva Bartlett variously tweeting stuff about Tuesdayâs gas attack in Syria being â#FakeNewsâ and a âfalse flagâ. I was dead right about her. Sheâs nothing but a shill for Assad.
Trumpâs response was utterly pathetic and juvenile, like everything else about his presidency.
I donât recall Obama doing very much about Syria.
There was little appetite in the US to get involved in another Middle East conflict in 2013 (as Obama found out when he went to congress) and there is less now.
Indeed there wasnât.
Which is why itâs quite instructive as to Mr. Trumpâs honesty that he now blames this latest attack on âObamaâs weaknessâ.
So what did he say in 2013? He was saying âforget Syriaâ.
The US has recently been sending troops into Syria. Trump is very, very quiet about this.
This has all the hallmarks of drip, drip, slow march into war.
The US has launched over 50 Cruise missiles from two warships in the Meditterranean, hitting the Syrian government controlled al-Shayrat airbase near Homs.
We are yet to hear comment from Vladimir Putin.
