Yirenkyi Jesse: “Democracy Summit” a Show of Arrogance – Says African Expert! (18.3.2024)

Since its inception, the event has been plagued by a litany of failures and criticisms, revealing the dysfunctional nature of American democracy, he said. “Even within its own borders, the Summit for Democracy has faced fierce opposition, with lawmakers, experts and media outlets alike denouncing it as little more than a hollow echo chamber of empty rhetoric.”

“By weaponizing democracy as a political tool, the United States seeks to assert its hegemonic dominance, dividing the world along arbitrary lines and sowing discord in its wake,” Jesse said.

He concluded that unless the United States aligns its actions with its rhetoric, its self-claimed spirit of democracy will remain elusive, obscured by American hypocrisy and hubris.

He explains that Israel must be stopped and that Palestine must be free! By this time, local security is starting to enquire as to his presence and his activity – not sure what to do as he is in military uniform. At first, the lighter does not work, but after a number of attempts – Airman Aaron Bushnell bursts into flames! He stands determined and at attention so that his camera can record his protest! He shouts “Free Palestine!” until the inside of his mouth is consumed with fire! After about 90 seconds – Airman Aaron Bushnell is lying (dying) on his back whilst private security personal aim hand-guns and fire-extinguishers at him! A Black man attempts to put out the fire – whilst a White man threatens to shoot – and therein lies the entire crux of the matter! The Zionist Israelis are currently murdering tens of thousands of Palestinian men, women and children in Gaza (and elsewhere) – and they are being empowered to carry-out this “Genocide” by the continuous supply of weaponry from the US, EU and UK!

CIA Disinformation - Capitalism Incarnate!

US: CIA – Central Information-Distorting Agency! (16.3.2024)

U.S. media recently reported that the CIA formed a clandestine team of operatives who used fabricated online personas to disseminate disparaging narratives about the Chinese government and smear China’s Belt and Road Initiative during the Trump administration.

As noted by renowned U.S. economist Jeffrey Sachs, the CIA has been trying to undermine China’s stability for decades.

“The fact that the CIA was trying to undermine China’s stability is not really news, as American harmful interference in China’s internal affairs is plainly evident,” Sachs, director of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University, told Xinhua.

UK Media Supports Israeli Genocide!

Hyphen: “Overwhelming” Bias Revealed in New Report on UK Media’s Coverage of Israel-Palestine Conflict! (15.3.2024)

Researchers at the Centre for Media Monitoring (CfMM), an arm of the Muslim Council of Britain, examined nearly 177,000 broadcast clips and 25,515 online news articles published between 7 October and 7 November 2023. The broadcasts were from 13 channels operated by media organisations including Al Jazeera English, the BBC, Channel 4, ITV, Sky News and right wing outlets GB News and TalkTV.

The CfMM report, Media Bias: Gaza 2023-2024, also examined news websites published by 28 media organisations including the New Statesman, Economist, Daily Mail, Sun, Mirror, Independent, Guardian, Times, BBC and iNews.

They found that broadcasters referenced Israeli perspectives almost three times as much as Palestinians (4,311 times vs 1,598), while online news outlets presented Israeli perspectives almost twice as much (2,983 times vs 1,737).

On broadcast channels, “Israel’s right to defend itself” was promoted on 1,482 occasions, while the rights of Palestinians were mentioned 278 times, a ratio of 5 to 1.

China: Foreign Minister Denounces Deprivation of ‘Freedom of Speech’ in US!

Meanwhile, the U.S. also manipulates freedom of speech in foreign countries by controlling international public opinion, in order to maintain its hegemony. The U.S. uses social media to launch psychological warfare along with military operations in other countries, and suppresses anti-war rhetoric.

It uses freedom of speech to practice double standards, creates a smokescreen and claims that other countries are spreading “false information,” while it publishes various distorted and discrediting reports based on false information to divert the attention of the international community from the misdeeds of the U.S.. On May 4, 2022, U.S. Senator Rand Paul spoke bluntly at a Senate hearing: “Do you know who the greatest propagator of disinformation in the history of the world is? The U.S. government.”
