A NOT SO FREE PRESS III
And it is not just the bad news about the economy, or the politicians, our news about the foreign affairs is so lacking objectivity that it must be and should be considered propaganda of the government at best.
Case in point, the invasion of Afghanistan, no one asked, as I did why the overwhelming display of the American fire power at cost of billions against a people and the Taliban that had no air defenses, no air force, nothing, if it was not to put all this power to use to justify defense spending of trillions and the jobs that the defense industry supports. I did not see any media discussing this particular point, and the majority of the Americans were convinced that our out of control military spending was justified. On the other hand it makes us proud that we can bomb mud huts from thousands of miles away.
LIFE IS A GAME OF CONNECT THE DOTS, IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ALL THE DOTS OR DON'T CONNECT THEM IN THE RIGHT ORDER YOU NEVER GET THE PICTURE
