Syria: The Shocking Truth Incriminates the USA
Pravda ^ | September 12, 2013 | Columnists

Posted on 09/15/2013 10:58:33 AM PDT by yldstrk

Firstly let us take a look at the "evidence" Obama and Kerry were peddling. For a start, John Kerry makes his mark under Peter's Principle as a failed Presidential candidate. As a diplomat and statesman, as US Secretary of State, he is either an incompetent jackass or else he is a barefaced, blatant liar, either case rendering him totally unfit for the job.

One of the photos he was waving around as evidence to incriminate President Al-Assad was taken in Iraq in 2003.

Weasel words dominate this ham-handed propaganda piece. Read it. If it were some leftist trying to discredit the Tea Party, it would be (rightly) destroyed on FR in 10 seconds.

Don’t glory in something simply because it calls your political enemy a jackass.

Excellent advice. I’m honestly amazed at the reception some people in here are giving a piece in Pravda. I wouldn’t have believed it possible that presumably conservative thinkers would uncritically swallow anything written in Pravda. Guess I was wrong...

well, the thing that really got my attention, although I admit I liked John Kerry being identified as ‘les incompetent”

is that Kerry was using a pic from Iraq as evidence........true?

The author, who by the way, responds to posts on the site, is in my opinion unlikely to reside in Russia, is definitely not Russian, and presents an opinion not much different from that of Mark Steyn. Call it ‘propaganda’ is you like, and if you’re still uninformed, you’ll never know that Pravda is no longer the official organ of the Soviet Communist Party, and at this point is a marginal newspaper in Russia.

Who said you said? Replies on FR aren’t usually addressed to whoever started the thread.

Or the Telegraph. Either way, the irony of this op-ed is not lost on me. The American media has become what Pravda once was. It is the official mouthpiece of the state, and the news is highly managed and “massaged” to present exactly what the democrat-controlled state organs want presented. They have also enlisted the public entertainment complext to ridicule anyone who dares to speak the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

HA! Joke's on you, Pravda. He's both!

I wonder if the "news" media is feeling out of sorts at times like these. Usually, they are doing all the exposing and damning the President, but now they are in the position of covering up for and praising their selected boy-king wannabe.

After all these years of denigrating a President (because he was Repub), it's just gotta' feel strange to be on the other side.

. . . as US Secretary of State, he is either an incompetent jackass or else he is a barefaced, blatant liar, either case rendering him totally unfit for the job.

In Kerry's case, it isn't either/or; it's all of the above.

Old joke: What's the difference between an IRS agent and a KGB agent?

Answer: KGB agent speaks good English.
