There is a marked difference between healthy 'dissenting voices' and a media outlet directly connected to a terror organisation that repeatedly airs incitements to violence that make Die Sturmer look pro Jewish.

What propaganda? You barely find the word used in much of the UK media. And no, I don't think the 'whole of the middle east' are Islamists. Far from it, and the recent pew global attitudes survey that shows greatly reduced support for suicide attacks on civilians pretty much everywhere in the Islamic world except Palestine is heartening.

The craven liberal campaign against the first real hope for the poor of Vene zuela is a striking example. :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh: :~ Sorry, I couldn't make it past that. Wow, you guys really are nuts.
Nothing in the entire universe is more useless than morality without authority.

Well whilst you enjoy your weekend, and I hope you do, spare a thought as to why exactly we have a weekend, it was a "struggling social movement" of my forefathers.
Typically, I work weekends. But thanks anyway.

Not quite true. The vast majority of Americans have always had sundays off thanks to Christianity. Saturdays were finally included so that people could have more time to spend their money - thanks to capitalism. Nothing to do with socialism at all.

Pilger is a ranting lunatic --- he jumps from one thing to another with absolutely no transition. You call this "journalism"??
