NATO
knows that, once they incessantly beat their war drums and get their entire
orchestra strumming along, their propaganda will easily carry the day in The
War of the Words.
Because the
24th April Armenian Genocide Remembrance day is once more upon us, I thought I
could best commemmorate it by bringing together some media-related threads it
has with more recent genocides and pogroms, not only in Western Armenia but in
all of west Asia, Africa and other places that likewise rarely make the news.
The Turkish
genocide of the Armenians, Assyrians and Pontic Greeks was a tool Western bull
frogs like Winston Churchill used to attack Germany, Ottoman Turkey’s main
Great War ally and, in that, as Sven Lindqvist’s superlative Exterminate all
the Brutes shows, it was just a re-run of Albion’s attack on the Belgian
Congo’s genocides to warn Belgium against getting too close to pre-Great War
Germany; although Belgium committed unspeakable war crimes in the Congo,
Lindqvist convincingly shows that British-ruled Africa, where savages like
Henry Moron Stanley were given free rein, was no better, and that is worth
remembering when we think of all the Africans, who were transported to Europe
and the United States to be exhibited as circus freaks for the amusement of the
paying masses.
When Africans,
Asians or any others are held in such low esteem, it is easy to flip the switch
and exterminate them. Such was the case with the Japanese, after Time
Magazine’s 22 December edition led with their notorious “How to tell your
friends from the Japs” front page editorial. Not only did that rabidly racist
editorial lead to the mass incarceration of Americans of Japanese descent but,
as I previously pointed out, the USMC’s Pacific War was a racist war of
extermination, a rosary of war crimes by any metric.
Nor was Time’s
call for a war of Japanese extermination a once-off. Here is The Economist
demanding war without mercy on Saddam Hyssein’s Iraq (a bad guy, so
slaughtering over a million Iraqi infants is worth it, just as The Economist’s
earlier 1st August 2002 edition proclaimed America’s Iraqi genocide was fully
fully justified). Here is The Economist’s Leader shilling for Obama to pursue a
policy of genocide in Aghanistan and here, at the 2001 start of the Afghan
genocide, is the same Economist’s leader telling us that NATO’s Afghan genocide
is “a heart-rending but necessary war”.
And Stephen
Karganovic‘s Serbs? Here is the front page of Time (how to tell your friends
from the Japs) screaming that we must “bring the Serbs to heel” even if that
entails blasting the lot of them to kingdom come. Bring them to heel? Are the
Serbs two-legged dogs that they must be trained to kowtow at their Western
masters’ feet? NATO’s media certainly think so.
And then there
is The Economist’s final solution to the Syrian problem which is, according to
its 31 August 2013 leader, to hit Assad hard. Assad, last I heard, is stiill
standing, but over a million Syrians are dead in this ongoing NATO genocide
which is, no doubt, at least as worth it as was NATO’s Iraqi genocide.
Not that NATO
has totally turned its back on Syria. Here is the BBC’s Lina Sinjab telling us,
in a story accompanied by an Arab in a niqāb, that the Syrians, who are being
currently massacred, never had it so good. Checking out this Syrian patriot’s
wikipedia page, we see she has contributed more often to MI6’s Chatham House
shenanigans than she has to MI6’s broadcast media but let’s listen to her
drivel all the same even if all it does is regurgitate MI6’s concern about
women in Afghanistan after MI6 surrendered those same women to the Taliban.
Because there
is no danger of the likes of Sinjab ever speaking truth to power, she will
never run into the type of flak Iris Chang experienced for her excellent The
Rape of Nanking. Iris Chang, it must be noted, was a journalist not an
academic, and her book was a first class piece of journalism and, if journalism
is history’s first rough draft, then Chang did a marvellous job in that respect
and one very few Western journalists will ever do, unless they want to follow
Gary Webb‘s example and be dragged through the mud and assassinated for their
trouble.
Although one of
Karganovic’s recent articles was on the pending exposure of yet another NATO
false flag job, and a recent editorial covered the Bucha false flag massacre,
and I have repeatedly drawn attention to Robert Stuart’s excellent exposé of a
BBC orchestrated Syrian false flag chemical gas attack operation, none of
those, at day’s end, amount to much.
That is because
NATO knows that, once they incessantly beat their war drums and get their
entire orchestra strumming along, their propaganda will easily carry the day in
The War of the Words. Though this this can most clearly be seen in the Orson
Welles’ 30th October 1938 radio rendition of HG Wells’ ‘The War of the Worlds’
to an incredulous American audience who thought the Martians had captured their
country, people are always easily fooled and few swim against the tide when
“the Japs” or anyone else are getting it the neck.
Although the
Vatican is to be commended for bringing Nigeria, Sudan, the Democratic Republic
of the Congo and similar killing fields to our attention, even leaving their
obvious conflicts of interests in such places as Ukraine and Archbishop
Romero’s El Salvador to one side, they are decidedly short on how we, the
ordinary people, can make a tangible difference to matters.
Although we can
march around like the Duke of York once did in protest over Gaza, that cuts
little ice with those who call the shots and, if we break the law, as some pro
Palestinian protesters do, then we are either jailed, deported or, at the very
least, judicially debarred from ever being active again.
We can, of
course, join the Pope in bringing these ongoing atrocities to the attention of
our political masters but, in a world where Slovakia’s pro-Russian (sic) Robert
Fico (recently shot five times but what about it?) has been threatened by
Estonia’s James Bond (aka Kaja Kallas) that, if he goes to Moscow, those five
NATO slugs will be the least of his problems, political pygmies like Kallas,
Baerbock and von der Leyen want us all to stay not only in our lane and but
under their yoke as well.
And, though
those terms are totally unacceptable from a moral point of view, they are also
totally unacceptable from a tactical point of view because the examples
adumbrated above, as well as countless others like them, show that St Paul’s
“powers of darkness” will continue their unspeakable atrocities until they are
stopped once and forever and, if we ordinary Joe Soaps are to do anything of
merit, it is to listen to and amplify the arguments of “the Japs”, the Serbs,
Syrians, Armenians, Assyrians, Africans, Ivans, Greeks and everyone and anyone
else NATO is currently lining up for the chopping block.
