    It's a very simple question.

    The video is 17 min's long why are the Aussie's hiding the other 13 min's ?, to protect the guilty. If there is nothing to hide show it all.

    The Aussie news agency that have the video, have stated that the length of the tape is 17 min's.
    The smell from this is as bad as all the conclusions that were made in the first few days of the tragedy by the US and their puppets in Kiev.

    LOL! A quick google tells me that the video is not an exclusive, and that it was aired on BBC a year ago! Epic fail.:pac:

    As I suspected. You talk a bunch of gibberish and when asked to back it up you demand that someone else proves that what you say is NOT a pack of lies.

    Don't waste my time with your silly games.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,900 ✭✭✭InTheTrees


    That explains a lot.

    That you cant document your sources.

    compares MH-17 disaster to Gulf of Tonkin incident

    And don't give me any guff about him being a tin foil hat wearer etc. He broke investigative stories into Iran contra affair, and has been nominated for a Pullitzer in the past. Have any of you got that kind of thing under your belt?

    Finally.

    This really comes down to whether you believe "RT"; which is the russian administations media arm.

    Or whether you believe any number of thousands of diverse western news outlets.

    In a nutshell thats what this thread has become. Shrills from both side insisting on possession of The Truth.

    Some examination of the legitimacy of "RT" as a source would probably be in order. Seeing as that seems to be a major part of the "discussion".


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,900 ✭✭✭InTheTrees



    I think the Russian invasion of Crimea and the incursions into eastern ukraine are the primary reasons for western sanctions.

    Some examination of the legitimacy of "RT" as a source would probably be in order. Seeing as that seems to be a major part of the "discussion".

    First off you've already skewed the question by insisting that there are "thousands" of diverse western news outlets. I don't know of thousands but if you do then fair play to you. Does RT have a pro-Russia bias? Most definitely. But can you honestly show examples where their content has purposefully lied or deceived the viewing audience? If you have examples of this I would be most grateful if you shared them.

    It doesn't come down to who you believe. It comes down to "shoot the messenger" if you don't like the message.

    Does Fox, Sky, Australia News Corp have and anti-Russian bias? Without a doubt. So why would you besmirch one outlet that has a bias one way yet lend credence to other outlets who have similar biases except in another direction? The truth is what's important here, not who your "team" is. Unless of course you don't care about the truth and will gladly accept lies and subterfuge if it copperfastens your position and the facts be damned.

    Is Fox news a complete joke of an outlet with an agenda in furthering lies? Absolutely. But if some serial liar like Bill O'Reilly comes on the air and states that 1 + 1 = 2 then I'm going to believe him. I'm not going to say "BULLSH!T. it's Fox. They can't be believed!". Likewise if someone on RT comes on and says 1 + 1 = 3, I'm not going to say "Wow! I was wrong all these years!".

    To determine the truth you have to question what you're told. Not just by those who dispute your position but also by those who confirm it.

    Can you give your justification for these sanctions?
    On what grounds have these sanctions been imposed and if it's as you say because a country has invaded another country or provided material assistance to militants therein then can you give another example whereby similar actions by different parties have not warranted such sanctions?

    Parry has also exposed as a pack of lies John Kerry's "unshakeable proof" that Bashar Assad used chemical weapons on his own people. Kerry stated this as if it were a fact and then was caught out in his lies. Kerry still has his job and is free to spread more lies and nobody in the forum has a problem with that.

    It's ok to dismiss Parry, a brilliant and internationally recognised intelligence professional whose record and integrity are impeccable, while at the same time turning a blind eye to Kerry's utter bald-faced lies.

    The Russian Invaision of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine.

    Really?

    Youre kind of spinning those credentials arent you?

    The idea that MH17 is another tonkin is dumb. Plain and simple.

    Why dont you answer that instead of trying to convince us some washed up american hack is the greatest journalistic mind alive today?

    :confused:

    Completely relevant. If an attack on a sovereign country is grounds for international sanctions then why are you not clamouring for sanctions to be imposed on the US, UK, and a plethora of other players who have not only invaded and occupied multiple sovereign nations but are providing assistance both financial and military to groups who are engaging in combat against internationally recognised governments?

    Surely if the rules state that Russia ought to be sanctioned because of their invasion of Crimea then ought not Israel be sanctioned for their invasion of Lebanon? Ought not Saudi Arabia be sanctioned for their attacks on Yemen and Bahrain? Ought not the US be sanctioned for their endless catalogue of attacks and invasions. Ought not the US be sanctioned for their arming of IS militants who are waging a war against the government of Syria?

    If you're going to wring your hands and feign outrage regarding a Russian invasion of Crimea then you really should be consistent with your moral-fingerpointing.

    Washed up American hack?

    How is Parry washed up? And how is he a "hack"?

    Is this yet another example of not being able to dissect and take on board what he has to say and consequently just hurling abuse?

    Don't allude to anything other than what he has to say. If you can resist the temptation.

    Answer that please without changing the subject. Then we'll move on to your other assertions.

    You call Robert Parry a "hack" ?

    What are your labels for Elsberg? Cronkite? John Simpson? Helen Thomas?

    1300 daily newspapers in the USA alone.

    Then there's radio. Then there's tv.

    And then there's Europe.

    I've said three times why I think his supposition that MH17 is another gulf of tonkin is nonsense.

    In response all you do is proclaim him to be the most amazing journalist.

    Is the George Polk award for journalism bestowed upon "hacks"?
    Are "hacks" nominated for a Pulitzer?

    Please tell me you have more than a smear to offer.

    Not sure what you're on about now.

    Different topics have different threads.

    This one is about Russia shooting down MH17.

    :confused:
