Here he is on Russia TV exposing the latest attempts to demonize Persians, whip up fear and anger, and lead Americans into another bloodbath to slaughter innocent people, stop non-existent threats, and cause massive chaos and mayhem, all to benefit no one but the U.S. state, the Israeli state, court ideologues, the merchants of murder and their other private sector allies.

Ahmadinejad: U.S. behind Iran suicide bombings
posted 07/18/2010, 10:08 PM (CNN) [Category: Cover-Up/Deceptions] (CNN) -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Sunday that only U.S. troops in Afghanistan and Iraq could be behind such bombings as the ones that struck the southeastern Iranian city of Zahedan last week, state-run media reported.

Pat Michaels: The Climategate Whitewash Continues
posted 07/12/2010, 6:13 PM (Wall Street Journal) [Category: Cover-Up/Deceptions] Last November there was a world-wide outcry when a trove of emails were released suggesting some of the world's leading climate scientists engaged in professional misconduct, data manipulation and jiggering of both the scientific literature and climatic data to paint what scientist Keith Briffa called "a nice, tidy story" of climate history. The scandal became known as Climategate.

Much of the news circulated by mainstream media is only a presentation of information handed down from the government.

Take the case of an Associated Press/CNBC poll released on April 20, 2010, detailing Americans' opinions on legalizing marijuana. The poll was widely reported as declaring that 55 percent in the U.S. are opposed to ending prohibition.
The war on drugs is second only to federal reserve banking and the income tax as the biggest racket on the face of the planet. Keeping drugs illegal (and the perception people want them to be illegal) is literally a trillion dollar business.
There are trillions of dollars and the entire justification for the totalitarian police state on the line, you better believe they wouldn't hesitate to fake a poll or run a psy-op to get people to believe the opposite.
If they asked people, "would you support the legalization of drugs if it meant the end of the militarized police state?" how many people do you think would say no?
If you asked them "if you found out the CIA and military intelligence ran over 90% of all the hard drugs in the United States and they use their obscene profits to overthrow foreign governments and carry out political assassinations and their entire racket depends on drugs being illegal, would you support the legalization of drugs in order to end their criminal empire?" how many people would say no then!! - Chris, InfoLib
