As things fall apart By William Bowles
Are you not amazed by the total synchronicity that exists between the media and the political class?

In the US Army manual on counterinsurgency, the American commander General David Petraeus describes Afghanistan as a “war of perception . . . conducted continuously using the news media”.

Media Lens: Too Toxic to Handle? Follow-up Alert on Israel’s Policy of Near-Starvation for Gaza
On November 17, we sent out a media alert that highlighted the corporate media’s lack of interest in official documents revealing Israel’s deliberate policy of near-starvation for Gaza.
