Personally, I avoid Wikipedia unless it is for something inane like an
entertainer or geographical fact but the number of times I have used it over
the years can be counted on my 20 digits. I have never trusted it for some
reason and when I learned of its true function and the info wars and propaganda
it is used to wage, my mistrust was as I discovered, well founded. This “service”
is being placed front top and center of the Zionist propagandization of the planet
and thrust down the throats of anyone who knows no better. Martin Iqbal does an excellent expose on the problems this resource presents to those who seek the truth and to those who don't know any better.

How many times have you used Wikipedia
when trying to find out the basic facts surrounding an unfamiliar event or
topic? How many times has Wikipedia been your first port of call? When one
seeks information online relating to a divisive, confusing, or hotly debated
topic, nine times out of ten the first port of call will be a search engine,
most likely Google.
Resultingly (as we will see), the
online encyclopedia ‘Wikipedia‘,
now a household name, has become the chief first source of information for a
huge majority of people.
Though Google and other search engines
are very useful and powerful tools for finding information, one must employ
extreme care. Due to the nature of search engines such as Google, Bing and
Yahoo, Internet users must be very wary of censorship by way of result ordering
and filtering. Furthermore, the popularity of a website can result in it being
listed higher than other sources even when they are more relevant and reliable.
The search engine specialist comScore’s January 2012 report(1)
spells out the search engine ‘market’ in the United States. In terms of the US
online search market, the leaders are Google
(with 66.2% share of search queries performed), Bing (with 15.2%), and Yahoo
(with 14.1%). Ask and AOL are in distant fourth and fifth
places with 3% and 1.6% respectively.
To illustrate a problem inherent with
the way these search engines serve us information, let’s consider the example
of the 2011 war on Libya, using the top three search engines ~ which
cumulatively monopolize 95.5% of all search queries performed in the United
States.
Visit Google, Bing and Yahoo, and
search for the term “2011 Libya war”, or “Libyan civil war”. Go on – try it
now. What do you notice? At the time of writing, in all cases the first result is the Wikipedia article for the ‘Libyan civil war‘ (read: the decimation of Libya by belligerent
foreign powers). All of these search engines
serve Wikipedia to us as the first
source of information ~ thrust in our faces at the top of the results page.
Since Wikipedia can be edited by
anybody (and anonymously at that), it is fundamentally flawed as a source of
reliable information. Making matters worse, organized groups have mobilized in
order to systematically manipulate the information published on Wikipedia.
WIKIPEDIA: ZIONIST LIE FACTORY
In April 2008, the Electronic Intifada published an
expose(2) of pro-Israel pressure group CAMERA
(Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America). CAMERA had been
found to be orchestrating an organized campaign to recruit, train, and manage
pro-Israel Internet users who could work as editors of Wikipedia. The CAMERA
emails published by the Electronic Intifada reveal the dishonest nature of
their highly organized campaign, wherein their operatives would seek Wikipedia
‘Administrator‘ rights before
using these privileges to edit, delete, and manipulate information.
This writer personally witnessed the
outright deletion of the Wikipedia page for the ‘Sayan’ (unofficial
helper/operative for the State of Israel) a number of weeks ago ~ undoubtedly
done at the hands of Israel partisans such as CAMERA. At the time of writing
however, the article for Sayan is accessible on Wikipedia.(3)
Reading ex-Mossad agent Victor Ostrovsky’s definition of the Sayanim, it is
easy to see why Zionists would want this information hidden from the general
public.
In August of 2010 two other Israeli
groups (‘The Yesha Council’, and ‘Israel Sheli’) began an initiative to train
an ‘army‘ of Wikipedia editors;
the objective of this ongoing initiative, like that of CAMERA, is to ensure
Wikipedia’s content has a pro-Zionist slant. Several mainstream news outlets
picked up on this story including the Guardian,(4) Haaretz,(5) Israel National News,(6)
and The New York Times.(7)
According to the UK Guardian’s report,
the Yesha Council as of August 2010 had 12,000 members with an estimated 100
new sign-ups each month. Coupled with efforts from other Israeli groups as well
as the US State Department’s ‘sock puppet’
initiative to manipulate the flow of information online,(8)
it’s not a good time for truth on Wikipedia and in the online space.
The fact that these groups even exist demonstrates that, with brute force and sheer numbers, Wikipedia’s content can be manipulated and redefined.
Any and all Wikipedia articles can be
edited by anybody anonymously, which makes the site fundamentally flawed and
not to be relied upon.
For politically charged, hotly debated, and divisive topics, this flaw becomes much more significant as nefarious groups specifically seek to mislead readers.
The level of disinformation present on
Wikipedia becomes painfully clear when reviewing the article for the war on
Libya; it is a narrative of pure mythology, constructed on all of the popular
lies that have characterized this ‘humanitarian intervention’ fraud.
LIBYA: LIES, DAMNED LIES, AND WIKIPEDIA
The deception begins with the article’s
title, which characterizes the war as the ‘Libyan civil war (also referred to as the Libyan revolution‘.(9)
Readers are immediately misled as the war on Libya is framed as an indigenous
‘civil war’ between Libyan groups.
In the opening paragraph, NATO powers
are deceptively referred to as “those
seeking to oust [Muammar Gaddafi's] government“. This is pure fantasy
meant to uphold the mythical ‘humanitarian intervention’ narrative. The
supposedly indigenous ‘uprising’ was a foreign import in every respect.
Libyan opposition groups wholly
controlled by and headquartered in London and Washington, planned the February 17 ‘Day of
Rage’ from their comfortable positions in exile(10) long
before the war on Libya.
Though it can be argued that Muammar Gaddafi was
somewhat unpopular in parts of the east of Libya, there was no broad popular movement to overthrow the Libyan Arab
Jamahiriya ~ instead only small armed groups with arms coming from the Gulf
dictatorships,(11) with the support of NATO
powers.
An armed insurrection began as these
armed groups attacked policemen and soldiers, stormed arms caches, and sowed
terror across Libya. This operation was mounted by NATO-aligned al-Qaeda
mercenaries and NATO Special Forces contingents. The entire global mainstream
media circulated unfounded atrocity propaganda and stories about the Feb17 ‘protests‘ being attacked by the Libyan
army, and global public indignation was channeled into justifying the war.
In reality what was referred to as ‘protests‘ was actually this armed
insurrection carried out by ‘rebel
forces‘. And ‘Rebel forces‘
here is Orwellian code language which euphemistically refers to a number of
parties: al Qaeda affiliated elements,(12)
extremist terrorists, mercenaries bankrolled by NATO and using NATO weaponry,(13)
as well as NATO special forces
themselves.
Wikipedia puts forth a romantic narrative of the ‘rebels’ being the driving force behind the war:
The Gaddafi government then announced a ceasefire, but failed to uphold it, [47] though it then accused rebels of violating the ceasefire when they continued to fight as well. [48] Throughout the conflict, rebels rejected government offers of a ceasefire.In August, rebel forces began a coastal offensive, taking back territory lost weeks before and ultimately capturing the capital city of Tripoli, [50] while Gaddafi evaded capture and loyalists engaged in a rearguard campaign.
Though popular wisdom indeed says that
the ‘rebels’ were the chief actor in the so-called ‘revolution’, and that they
single-handedly achieved all of their strategic and military objectives, truth
holds that the ‘revolution’, the war, was a NATO operation at its very core.
Months of relentless and deadly bombing (with over 26,500 air sorties flown) by
NATO warplanes and gunships eliminated any ground opposition to the ‘rebels’,
while special forces from the British SAS, the CIA, and even Qatari regulars
fought the ground war, coordinating airstrikes from the ground.
Even the taking of Tripoli in August ~
which Wikipedia touts as a ‘rebel’ gain ~ was a NATO operation at its very genesis ~
largely carried out by Qatari troops supported by NATO aircraft.(14)
The ground aspect of the war was led by
foreign troops present on the
ground in Libya from the war’s very advent.(15)
SAS forces, CIA spies, and thousands of Qatari troops led the charge and
coordinated the so-called rebels’ every move.
The ‘rebels’ were nothing more than a media show, and the Wikipedia article seeks to paint a romantic picture:(16)
The rebels are composed primarily of civilians, such as teachers, students, lawyers, and oil workers, and a contingent of professional soldiers that defected from the Libyan Army and joined the rebels.
This emotive hogwash constitutes one of
the many myths of the Libya War. It will come as no surprise then, to learn
that Wikipedia’s sole source(17)
for this information is an Israel-based journalist who started her career with the BBC World Service and Voice
of America(18) ~ the official propaganda
arm of the U.S. Government.
Her article referenced by Wikipedia
constitutes an emotive plea for war, and was published mere days before NATO
bombs began to fall. These are the types of pro-empire, pro-war, pro-Zionist
sources that uphold the narrative published on Wikipedia, and it is surely no
surprise whatsoever.
Interestingly, the Wikipedia article
for the Libya War admits that the Libyan government was facing an armed
insurrection:
Protests took place in Benghazi, Ajdabiya, Derna, Zintan, and Bayda. Libyan security forces fired live ammunition into the armed protests
The article uses deception and Orwellian language to refer to the insurrection however, using the term, ‘armed protests’. Identical language has characterized mainstream reporting on the Syria War ~ which operationally is a carbon copy of the Libya War: an example of fourth generation warfare carried out by belligerent foreign interests, coupled with a deceptive media war intended to paint the events as an indigenous, popular revolution.
Fantastical casualty figures were
invented by the likes of the BBC who provided zero evidence, and only nameless
‘eyewitness accounts’ in sensational and dramatic language. Reminiscent of the
utterly invented ‘incubator babies’ propaganda from the Iraq war, the Wikipedia
article claims that Gaddafi’s troops ‘stormed
hospitals‘, executed patients, and removed other patients from their
drips and monitoring equipment.
The sources for these grand claims?
One is the BBC article which offers no evidence whatsoever,(19)
other than an account from an anonymous hospital worker, and the other is a News 24 article which cites Sliman
Bouchuiguir,(20) head of the Libyan branch of the
International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) ~ based in Switzerland.
Staying true to Wikipedia’s aversion to the facts, these sources are of the
most spurious nature possible.
Sliman Bouchuiguir was exposed as a
habitual liar by Julien Teil’s stellar documentary ‘Humanitarian War’.(21) The
must-see video reveals how NATO-appointed NTC officials and the FIDH invented
dramatic stories of atrocities being committed by Gaddafi, and concocted
casualty figures from thin air. When challenged to provide verification of the
claims of massacres by Gaddafi’s forces, Bouchuiguir could not provide any
proof.
Another crucial point that is revealed
in the documentary is the baseless nature of the ICC case against Gaddafi; the
vast majority of the alleged evidence was redacted from the public report, and
mainstream media reports constituted a great deal of the sources for the
alleged atrocities.
Even more significantly, the FIDH is known to be tied to the
Israel lobby in France, (22) and is closely linked (23)
to the Zionist ‘democracy promotion’ group The National Endowment for Democracy.
Furthermore, the FIDH is
closely linked to UN Watch ~ the Zionist lobby group that played a central role
in pushing for the war on Libya ~ whereby they wrote letters to the US, EU, and
UN, repeating the massacre fantasies that they themselves had concocted.
Needless to say, Sliman Bouchuiguir was the second
signatory to these letters, (24) amongst 90 other
NGO/individual co-signers.
Wikipedia’s chronicle of events in
Libya repeats these verified lies as fact, and unashamedly references the
aforementioned liars as its sources.
Once the fraudulent humanitarian
narrative had been established, the ensuing war and genocidal decimation of
Libya began. It was carried out entirely by foreign powers who fought a deadly
ground and air war using, as I have discussed, foreign special forces and
soldiers, jet fighters, helicopter gunships, and naval craft. Tomahawk
missiles, cluster bombs, and Brimstone missiles (25)
rained down on Libyan targets as depleted uranium was scattered all over
the country, contaminating the environment and water supply.
British SAS forces(26) coordinated ‘rebel’
movements and called in airstrikes from the ground as the whole world bought
the idea that the rag-tag ‘rebels’ were calling the shots, and the ‘revolution’
was a popular movement spearheaded by Libyans. The notoriously incompetent ‘rebels’,
being nothing more than a media spectacle for Western eyes and ears, were also commanded(27) and supported on the ground by the CIA,(28)
as well as thousands of Qatari troops. On the 26th October 2011, Qatari chief
of staff Major General Hamad bin Ali Al-Atiya arrogantly admitted the presence of
his troops in Libya:(29) “We were among them and the numbers of Qataris on the ground were
hundreds in every region“.
THE ‘MERCENARIES’ MYTH:
A CATALYST FOR THE DIVISION OF ARABS & AFRICANS
Revolutionary Leader of the Great
Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, Muammar Gaddafi, was a champion of pan-African unity.
Merely two months before his people were brutally attacked by international
criminals masquerading as the “international community”, he had pledged $90 billion to the
unification of Africa(22) and its resistance to
colonial infiltration and aggression (note: this information will not be found
on Wikipedia).
The cruel, criminal, and genocidal
attack on Libya is a not only an attempt to abort Arab-African unity (a central
tenet of Israel’s ‘Yinon plan‘),
but it is a microcosm of what is designed for Africa and the Middle East as a
whole.
We are seeing this wider strategy play out all over Africa,(30)
from Libya to Sudan, and from Nigeria to Egypt. This strategy aims to force
Christians and Muslims, black Africans and Arabs, to live in their own
sectarian enclaves out of fear for their own lives. This strategy has cleansed
Christians from Iraq ~ achieved by a sustained and devilish campaign of Mossad black ops and false flag
bombings. (31)
During the war on Libya, a seed was
planted with the intention of furthering this nefarious agenda in Libya. As a
result, innocent blacks were lynched, beaten, imprisoned, murdered(32) and decapitated
in hate-fuelled attacks all over the
country.(33)
A principle cause of this venomous
hatred towards Libya’s black African population (who before the war constituted
a third of Libya’s total population) was the myth that Gaddafi had hired
African mercenaries to put down ‘protests’.
The Wikipedia article devotes eight paragraphs (34)
to these spurious allegations, supported by reports from pro-war, pro-Zionist,
state-organ media outlets such as CNN, Al Jazeera, ABC, Time Magazine, and The
Washington Post. The sources used here, which form the backbone of Wikipedia’s
‘mercenaries’ claim, are of such laughably spurious nature that they deserve
closer inspection.
One of these sources is a series of anonymous text messages
(35) purportedly sent by an unnamed ‘Libyan economist’!
Another of Wikipedia’s sources herein is a report from ‘Save the Children’,
(36) based on nothing
but pure hearsay, claiming that Gaddafi’s forces had raped children as
young as eight. Another source mentions admittedly “not yet confirmed”
reports, (37) and claims that mercenaries were
offered $12,000 to $30,000 each.
Amongst the sources used for this
article are tweets from a US NGO named Democratic Underground. This source (38)
touts information from a spokesman of the Libyan League for Human Rights (LLHR)
~ a propaganda mill established and run by the aforementioned compulsive liar
Sliman Bouchuiguir. The LLHR is affiliated to the FIDH, which is intimately linked to the Zionist
National Endowment for Democracy. (39)
Upon the most cursory inspection
Wikipedia’s sources, and therefore its narrative, disintegrates like a house of
cards in a hurricane.
At this stage it is important to note
that even Amnesty International ~ responsible for spreading much of the
atrocity propaganda in the first place ~ has gone on record to say that
there is no evidence for these allegations, nor is there any evidence for the
claims that Gaddafi’s forces were using rape as a weapon of war.(40)
The Wikipedia article fleetingly acknowledges the fact that there is no evidence
for the mercenaries claim, albeit after its eight-paragraph sales pitch.
In June 2011, Amnesty International said it found no evidence of foreign mercenaries being used, saying the black Africans claimed to be “mercenaries” were in fact “sub-Saharan migrants working in Libya,” and described the use of mercenaries as a “myth” that “inflamed public opinion” and led to lynching and executions of black Africans by rebel forces.
Needless to say, the damage has already
been done as Libyans of black African descent are fleeing their homeland in
droves. This strategy of division is termed by Mahdi Nazemroaya (22)
as “an attempt to separate the merging
point of an Arab and African identity“, and
it is a strategy which is planned for the entire Arab and Muslim world.
It is a strategy which Nicolas Sarkozy ~
key mover behind the Libya war ~ even offered his support to; it was reported in October 2011(22)
that Patriarch Mar Beshara Boutros Al-Rahi ~ head of the Maronite Catholic
Syriac Church of Antioch (the largest of the autonomous Eastern Catholic
Churches) ~ met with Sarkozy in Paris.
During this meeting Sarkozy told Sheikh Al-Rahi that the Syrian regime will collapse, and that the Christian communities of the Levant and Middle East can resettle in the European Union.
As imperialist powers supported by a
network of so-called human rights groups deliberately create the conditions of
danger, instability and fear for specific ethnic, religious, and racial groups
in the Middle East and North Africa, they also are providing the means to move
them out of their native homelands, effecting the segregation and division of
such groups permanently. The vicious attack on Libya is merely a beginning to
this renewed strategy to divide, pulverize and weaken Africa. The Israeli-prescribed division of Sudan
(41) is a case in point.
Instead of shedding light on this
destructive and deadly strategy, Wikipedia, marching in lockstep with the
controlled media, merely perpetuates the myths that enable it. More than ever,
this underscores the desperate need for us to seek out information from other,
more independent sources.
CONCLUSION: WIKIPEDIA IS WRITTEN BY THE VICTOR
Not only is Wikipedia merely a
representation of the ‘official’ narrative for important events such as the War
on Libya, but it is served to us as the first
result by all major search engines (cumulatively having a 95.5% market
share of search queries in the United States).
Even more worryingly, you will see the exact same behaviour if you enter
other search terms such as “the
Holocaust“, “9/11“, or “Syrian uprising“. Give it a try right
now.
Being presented as the first search
result for these important topics (and a myriad more ~ simply visit these
search engines and try as many different topics as you like), Wikipedia
demonstrably has a monopoly on information exposure, and has the chance to set
its narrative in information-hungry minds. Millions of Internet users are
literally being fed a pack of lies as soon as they initiate their search for
information.
Deaths and casualties constitute
without a doubt, the most important human aspect of any and all wars. With this
in mind, let us type “Libya war deaths“,
or “estimates of Libya war casualties”
into any of the aforementioned
search engines. Go ahead ~ do it now. Surprise, surprise, we are presented ~ in
all cases ~ with the Wikipedia article for ‘Casualties of the Libyan civil war‘.(42)
What we see are gross underestimations
of the deaths caused by a protracted, deadly, and sustained bombing campaign
carried out by the world’s most powerful militaries. In addition to this, every
single source used here ~ without exception ~ is globalist and pro-war in
nature:
- The NED-linked International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and Libyan League for Human Rights (LLHR);
- The World Health Organization;
- The UN Human Rights Council;
- Al Jazeera English (Qatari-owned and run cheerleader of the Libya war, co-created by Libyan NTC Quisling(43) Mahmoud Jibril);
- The National Transitional Council (NATO’s council of stooges);
How can we expect the masses to gain
even a basic geopolitical understanding of anything when Wikipedia is thrust in
our faces during practically every Internet search we do? Wikipedia verily is
nothing more than a black and white representation of the ‘official narrative’
of the war on Libya, and the same can be said for other highly-propagandized
events such as the so-called Syrian uprising, the false flag terror attacks of
9/11, and the ‘Holocaust’.
Wikipedia is the very manifestation of the old African adage ‘until the lion can write his own story, the tale of the hunt will always glorify the hunter‘.
The disinformation presented on
Wikipedia is nothing short of criminal. We must always check the sources for
the information we consume, and for all matters political, we must look upon
Wikipedia with the same utter contempt that we do with all controlled media.
