I'm having difficulty posting.....
Your comment prompted me to look up Information Clearing House and the following link tells about them, their mission and their sources:
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/intent.htm
Looking at their front page, you can see a long list of their various sources like NY Times, Washington Post, Boston Globe, Forbes, Fortune, etc., to name just a few.
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info
Global Research also carried the interview on their site (
http://www.globalresearch.ca/vladim...ign-russias-sovereignty-is-threatened/5414633)
My concern about the information sources followed by the general public is that those sources are 'bought' and 'controlled' by groups such as AIPAC and others(lobbyists?), not to mention various departments of government (in all countries!) who have an agenda that doesn't include the public getting the full picture. Sources like CNN, MSNBC, FOX, CBC, CTV, etc. That's why I feel it's critical to look to a multitude of alternate news sources and compare their information.
The comments on any site shouldn't be considered as part of the story should they? Read HuffPost or CNN or any MSM site and see the same kinds of bias's at work on either side depending on the story. Information Clearing House would be a site that is frequented by people who are probably continually reviewing the BIG PICTURE, as opposed to the little picture that politicians will dish out via MSM to keep the public placated and happy and based on that BIG PICTURE information, there is righteous anger out there. But again, read the story for it's sake, note who wrote it and their credentials and ignore comments.
I just read an article about a ten year old Palestinian girl who was shot in the face by the IDF and they are holding her father for questioning. The boy who was set on fire and burned to death in Israel - what has happened to those monsters and did their family homes get demolished like Palestinian homes do if one of their family members steps out of line? The Palestinian bus driver who was found hanged, his family wants a Palestinian pathologist in attendance, and my guess is they won't get it.
I could give you a
huge list of links that would take you to stories about all kinds of real and proven abuses by Israel against Palestinian people including their little kids. And by and large, most MSM outlets do not carry stories on these atrocities. If you were reading the kinds of things that Israel does on a daily basis in the name of Zionism, you'd be less than civil also. Guaranteed!
I would like to thank you for taking the time to read Putin's interview. Maybe you will be one of few, so congrats for being willing to look outside the box.
Regarding the less than 'favourable to the West' stories on that site, perhaps the problem is that the US is involved globally in shaping the world to suit the US (which often involves government removal and/or bombing missions or funding terrorist groups) and now thanks to my PM, Canada can also be included in that unpleasant fragrance that comes wafting on the breeze in any discussion of world politics, conflicts, etc.
Depending on who you read, the US has military in between 38 (Pentagon number) and 150 (various other sources support numbers closer to this). Which other country does this and do you think the Pentagon is really telling the truth?
Russia has seven bases outside of Russia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Russian_military_bases_abroad and theirs are pretty much directly in the vicinity of Russian borders and would be beneficial in their personal protection if attacked. The US has bases all around the world, on every continent and nowhere near your borders. You don't need one in Canada because our PM has sold his soul and with our need for that all important trading partner status, our various governments over the years will have been very careful not to poke our neighbour with too sharp a stick.
Which reasonable and brilliant man did Putin (and Europe) chose not to work with?
