I used to look to the BBC and FINANCIAL TIMES as antidotes to the patently biased reports and incomplete or incorrect "backgrounding" that has been standard fare in the American media for too many decades now. But, Petras is clear: the American disease has been borne by winds and tides to infect our cousins across the pond. Perhaps readers abroad will let us know how matters progress with the media in Italy, France, Germany, et. al. Given the enthusiasm with which the "leaders" of those governments have embraced the West's mini-war against Russia in support of Georgia, one suspects the "fix" is in there, too--at least with the MSM. At least we've still got the Internet--for now! James Petras serves his readers well in probing beneath the veneer of British genteel media.

To think that the government which beyond any doubt perpetrated this monstrous act of mass murder is still torturing (and no doubt killing) people as part of an inane cover-up is beyond chilling. People who would do this are eminently capable of bringing an end to all human life. After all, we'd only be in heaven with Jesus. Wouldn't we?

One such list: http://crimesofthestate.blogspot.com/2007/02/no-george-monbiot-these-are-facts-of.html See also the Taking Aim report on Khalid S. Muhammed (who was reported dead in a gunfight with Pakistani security forces). The US government has never proven that the man in custody actually IS KSM. http://takingaimradio.com/mp3/takingaim070320.mp3 Prof. Petras,
