MASSIVE CENSORSHIP AS MEDIA PUSHES FALSE NARRATIVE ON MID EAST RIOTS

September 15, 2012

A false corporate media narrative and massive censorship follows globe spanning riots following the murder of the US Ambassador to Libya.

The riots following the murder of the U.S. ambassador to Libya have now spanned across the globe.

Yet you would be hard pressed to turn on your television and hear anything else beside the false narrative the corporate media is pushing which was clearly outlined in government press releases handed to them by the secret police.

While some may lash out at implying censorship by the secret police an objective look at the TV news reports clearly reveals an echo chamber of strategically outlined talking points.

Indeed the echo chamber’s scripted narrative is often in direct contradiction to numerous reports from credible online corporate news sources.

For starters does every TV news headline refer to riots or unrest in the Middle East when the truth is these riots never even originated in the Middle East and since they broke out in North Africa they have spread across southern Asia and into Europe.

Mass Censorship, False Narrative 
As Muslim Protests Span the Globe

While this propagandist aspect the censorship campaign may seem trivial to some it is noteworthy to point out because it demonstrates a clear lack of objectivity in among the corporate media news sources.

In the most simplistic of terms the term “Middle East” continues to be used despite the lack of a factual basis for doing so because the years of propaganda have warped the psyche of massive into cognitively associating the term “Middle East” with “terrorists who hate us for our freedom and want to destroy our way of life.”

In the past this has been effective tactic to desensitize public to the war crimes we continue to commit in our illegal perpetual overseas wars.

Simply put the public doesn’t care about said terrorists hence creating a general sense of apathy which drowns out any conscionable objects to those war crimes.

While these wars are being waged simply for imperialistic reasons, such as gain control of global oil supplies, the corporate media instead has us believe our actions overseas are necessary so the safety of the public can be protected from the bogeyman.

Hence the use of the term Middle East to describe what truly is Global unrest is telling once we consider the propagandist aspects of the terms thus revealing the motives behind the pushing of a false scripted narrative to explain the events to the television viewer.

As the unrest spreads into its fourth day the viewer still has not been presented with a single interview with protestors on the ground conducted by the media.

Instead the viewer is simply presented with experts and other talking heads discussing familiar talking points as record video footage is shown to the viewer who is then told what it is they are watching.

To be more correct, the viewer is told what it is the news outlet wants them to believe is happening.

Yet these same viewers will queue up stories from corporate news outlets on the Internet and be presented with an entirely different narrative of the events.

Anyone following the twists and turns in the ever changing narrative presented in media reports must be suffering from a cranial tailspin strong enough to cause subdural hematoma.

The reason for that is as the riots spread from the North African nations of Libya and Egypt and then across the Middle East into Europe and Asia the corporate media has been caught pushing one lie after the next.

As lie after lie is repeatedly debunked the overall context of the false narrative is still being pushed as the media continues to parrot government talking points.

At the same time there is a campaign of mass censorship occurring in an attempt to keep their story from falling apart.

There is coordinate effort underway meant to do little more than convince the public the terrorists hate Americans for their freedoms in line with the overall goal of manufacturing consent for the government to actions the public otherwise simply not accept.

We see repeated reports from long-considered credible news outlets citing high-level government officials and diplomats contradicting the official narrative that the unrest is in response to the move.

With each of those reports the reporters and their news outlets are soon after forced to redact their reports.

News sources that are not part of the inner-cabal of corporations that control the overwhelming majority of the mass media are targeted by forces working behind the shadows to control and censor opposition to the government manufactured false narrative.

Independence Citizen journalists are having their videos removed from sites such as YouTube and Vimeo who are additionally engaging in the blatant censorship of videos put out not only by the public but even by Middle East news organizations.

A story from the Lebanon Free Press stating the U.S. Ambassador to Libya was sodomized by his own Al Qaeda puppets has been censored.

Their video posted to YouTube which was embedded in this story has been removed from YouTube for violating “spam, scams, and commercially deceptive” guidelines.

YOUTUBE, VIMEO CENSORING NEWS 
CONTRADICTING MEDIA NARRATIVE

The video was not spam. It clearly was not trying to scam anyone out of money and was not being used to commercially deceive consumers.

A well known citizen journalist known as Syria Girl has had repeated videos scrubbed from YouTube for reporting the truth about the crisis in the Middle East

.

.

In an attempt to circumvent the YouTube’s censorship she uploaded her videos to Vimeo where they drew the attention of the secret police as well after accumulating over 10,000 views in a very short period of time.

Sadly Vimeo followed in the footsteps of YouTube then scrubbed her reports as well.

Here’s her report on the censorship of her videos.

The Washington Examiner reported even reported on the Lynching of the US Ambassador and further cited sources originating from the AFP sources that the Ambassador was raped which of course contradict the corporate media’s scripted narrative.

The author was forced to redact the article and the AFP sources were forced to change their story.

More evidence contradicting the official narrative is being suppressed, ignored and even outright censored.

The media originally reported with good reason the attacks were planned before hand.

These reports again quoted several top level government officials and diplomatic sources backed up the claim.

The Obama administration immediately forced the media to get back on script claiming there was no such evidence.

Now the original reports from all of those officials are being ignored.

You need only ask a few critical questions about the official narrative to realize it is entirely false and the original reports were correct.

Who brings rocket propelled grenades to a protest and how did the body of someone who was killed by such an attack end up getting paraded around in the streets with obvious signs of being tortured? How did his body end back up inside the US embassy lying in an area completely scorched and yet show no signs of burns after, according to the scripted narrative, he died from smoke inhalation?

Further evidence the attack was in fact pre-planned is revealed in an exclusive put out by The Independent one of the UK’s largest and most respected newspapers .

Their article reveals the inside details about the assassination of the Ambassador the official narrative altogether ignores while holding no punches in their lead which states “America was warned and did nothing.”

The story goes onto reveal that the embassy staff came under mortar fire while evacuating.

So now the question becomes who brings RPG’s and heavy artillery to a spontaneous protest about a movie?

The story also details how as the embassy staff evacuated along a secret route to a secret safe house artillery shells continued to fall with stunning precision.

This indicates not only was the attacked planned but that somehow the attackers had access to top secret intelligence that told gave them the exact path the evacuees would follow.

It also suggest the workings of a professional organization that had the ability to time how long it would take to travel exact distances along the route and then coordinate their artillery fire to hit those locations as the evacuees traveled.

This mortar fire clearly came from a third party actor away from the embassy because the mortar fire continued even as the embassy staff reached the supposedly secret safe house.

The Independent then goes on to report the supposedly secret safe house itself was then bombarded with heavy artillery fire.

In the after math of the crisis we are being told that the spontaneous protest that broke out in Libya was due to anger over an anti-Muslim film that doesn’t even exist.

 .

What does exist is a trailer for the supposed movie

which has been out on the Internet for 6 months now.

To claim that 6 months later people are going to start rioting is an absurd claim within itself but what is more absurd is the quickly changing narrative about the non-existent creators of the non-existent movie.

First the media claimed the creator was someone who didn’t exist.

Then they revealed it was made by an Israeli Jew.

Now somewhat conflicting reports blame it on a Coptic Christian and his counterparts in Egypt who reportedly translated it into Arabic.

Now the FBI and the media are on a witch hunt to find those responsible for the movie as the public is being convinced that those who made the movie should be held accountable.

The question that needs to be asked is accountable for what?

Isn’t this America the great nation of freedom where the Constitution protects both our Freedom of Religion and Freedom of Press?

What right does an overbearing government have to conduct an illegal search and seizure in violation of the Fourth Amendment to learn the identities of those who were doing nothing more than engaging in activities protected under the First Amendment?

Why do the media need to libel and slander those who did so?

Perhaps more importantly is why media continues to falsely blame one person after the next for making the movie?

This is more disturbing when you considered the media clearly knows that by revealing said identities the course of their witch-hunt those who are name are immediately targeted for death by violent Islamic Jihadist Extremists.

Why does the media not complain about repeated documentaries shown on channels such as History Channel, National Geographic, Discovery and numerous others that demonize other religions?

How many times have they desecrated, demonized and slandered Jesus who, like his followers in the documentaries, is often portrayed as cultist conspiring against the Jews?

How many documentaries go unquestioned debunking the bibles of Islam, Christianity and Judaism with no one saying a world?

How many more hit pieces will come out exposing conspiracies of the Catholic Church throughout the ages?

No one complains because no matter how offensive or vial any of these shows or movies may be they are all clearly protected as Free Speech and Free Press. There is no witch-hunt for the creators because you can’t violate the Fourth Amendment to expose people engaging in activities protected by the First unless you want people to exercise the Second.

Again, this all points to nothing more than a hypocritical media following a scripted narrative outlined in government press releases being handed to them by the secret police.

Those who followed the situation in Libya know that the US and its NATO allies backed Islamic Jihadists to topple Gadaffi. These extremists were then basically given power over Libya after the government fell and they have been waging genocidal cleansing in the name of Saudi Arabia’s fundamentalist interpretation of Islam ever since.

This is the same situation that is happening in Syria right now where the west is covertly backing Saudi Arabia’s Salafi Jihadists to overthrow Assad.

The Saudi Government indoctrinates extremists with their fundamentalist version of Islam and exports this poisonous ideology to neighboring countries.

The US and its allies use this army of fundamentalists, which includes Al Qaeda and other Islamic Jihadists, as a covert foreign legion to push their imperialistic agenda overseas.

We saw this with the Egyptian revolution and the Libyan revolution. The ironic thing is the mercenary terrorist who are waging this jihad don’t even believe in revolution.

Seriously, you can look up Salafi Jihadism yourself.

The same Islamic extremists the US used to topple governments in the Middle East are the ones attacking embassies worldwide right now. They planned the attacks on the US embassies.

The media originally reported on this but now this inconvenient fact is being censored by the secret police who have instructed the media to echo the Obama’s administrations false narrative claiming the attacks are in response to an anti-Muslim film.

Let’s suppose you take the corporate media’s redactions, claiming their diplomatic and government sources simply had their ‘facts wrong’ in the first place at face value.

Doing so you have to believe that the narrative being pushed that the attacks were spontaneous and there are several problems with the narrative itself.

For starters, just the signature of the attack itself shows premeditation. Are we supposed to believe people just happened to bring rocket propelled grenade to a protest?

Then there are the confirmed reports that Libya security forces simply stood down and allowed the attacks to happen. Don’t buy the lies for one second that Libya doesn’t have a government and proper security in place. This is a fabricated lie the media is spreading to support their narrative.

Prior to the attack on the embassy, there is literally report after report of these same extremists waging their Jihad throughout Libya on orders of Libya officials on the first place.

There are numerous accounts of genocidal slaughter occurring at mosques, shrines and graves where the Libya security forces not only stepped aside and allowed the attacks but cornered off the surrounding areas to prevent third parties from coming in and stopping the attacks.

More startling in the case of the murder of the US Ambassador is after the embassy was burnt to the ground the staff was evacuated to secret safe house. Yet while the Embassy staff was traveling to this safe house mortar fire reigned down with exact precision on the path to the safe house.

Again, just like the presence of rocket propelled grenades at a protest makes no sense; neither does the presence of mortar fire. Furthermore the fact that distant mortar fire fell with exact precision along the path the embassy staff was secretly evacuating on shows the attackers had intelligence beforehand on where to send their mortar fire.

Finally once this staff arrived at the supposedly secret safe house it came under heavy mortar fire. Again, such attacks show there was intelligence and planning beforehand and coordination with forces located outside of the immediate area of the protests.

Now let’s turn our attention to more information that is being censored. We were originally told the Ambassador was killed in an RPG attack on his car. This turned out to be a lie only which was exposed only after the Islamic extremists posted photos online showing his dead body being paraded around on the streets.

Even with the media changing this part of the official narrative they are still claiming the Ambassador’s body was recovered inside the embassy where he was taken to a local hospital.

Again the photos showing his body being paraded around discount this fact. Another startling development is several sources have stated the Ambassador was raped and sodomized prior to being murdered.

Western media outlets who reported on this have been forced to redact their story. What is disturbing is that Middle Eastern media outlets who reported on this who are not under the control of the American Gestapo, and hence can’t be forced to redact the story, are simply having their stories censored.

The cover up of these facts by the media and the censorship of independent and contrarian reporting across several news sites can only be the work of the secret police. There is no other explanation for it.
