“Fake News” on Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Ukraine, Yemen: Support Global Research’s Battle against Media Disinformation
Dear Global Research Readers,
A smear campaign is currently underway accusing the alternative and independent online media of producing “Fake News”.
Our analysis confirms that the corporate media rather than the alternative media are routinely involved in distorting the facts and turning realities upside down.
They are the unspoken architects of “Fake News”.
- They deny Israeli war crimes against Palestinians,
- they fail to mention that the US, Britain, France, Turkey and Saudi Arabia are providing covert support to both Al Qaeda and the Islamic State (ISIS-Daesh),
- they disregard the fact that two Neo-Nazi parties are part of the Ukrainian government coalition,
- they accuse the Syrian government of killing their own people.
In the words of Mark Taliano:
“The War on Syria is not a “civil” war; the “uprising” was not “democratic”; Assad does not “starve his own people”; Assad does not “bomb his own people”, and, of course, there are no “moderate” terrorists.”
The US and its allies are directly or indirectly involved in several illegal wars: Afghanistan, Ukraine, Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen. These acts of military aggression are casually upheld by the mainstream media as “humanitarian wars” under the doctrine of “Responsibility to Protect (R2P).
In turn, the ongoing US-led bombing raids against Syria and Iraq resulting in countless civilian deaths are portrayed by the MSM as a “counter-terrorism campaign” against the Islamic State, which just so happens to be financed by America’s closest allies, including Turkey and Saudi Arabia.
Over the years the Centre for Research on Globalization (CRG) and its webpage Global Research have worked to bring you cutting edge analysis and news that the is barely covered by the mainstream media. Our objective is counter-propaganda as a means to restoring Truth in Media. We are also working to preserve the alternative media and promote voices that would otherwise go unheard.
The Centre for Research on Globalization does not seek financial support from private and public foundations or governments. This is why we value every single donation and contribution made by our readers.
Please help us reverse the tide!
