This is a great reminder of the overly simplistic and incomplete messages that we're being sold by the media. I wish more people could see beyond the sound bites and the propaganda. When you learn that the media is being used as a tool to steer public sentiment towards achieving the goals of the ruling classes you can pretty effectively predict their future moves.

I've suspected this for a long time (since 2014 to be more exact) but I am now 100% certain that anything we are told by media is 99% false. This also applies to what is going on in Afghanistan now. Who knows? Maybe the Taliban are the good guys. I hope so. Because we are sure not the good guys.
It's complicated, @owasco... There's something rotten in the state of the 'good guys' and, sigh, there's misguided goodness in the so-called bad guys. Meddling in the affairs of others, with dark, power-hungry and greedy intentions brings out the worst in Others. I'm grateful that people are waking up to this...
I appreciate your taking the time to read and, more importantly, your willingness to think differently and question authority, @ericvancewalton. We're fortunate, on Hive, to attract folks who are independently minded and recognize that the old ways are broken. At the risk of sounding wildly optimistic, I think a shift is taking place world-wide with all the protest, revolutions, evolutions we see and that these are the birth pangs of a New World! May we live to see this world that we dream of.
