(2022-02-23). U.S. lies grease a path to war. iacenter.org February 22, 2022 The first casualty of war is truth. The famous ancient Greek playwright, Aeschylus, allegedly said this in 550 BCE. It's been repeated often, but is no longer accurate. U.S. imperialism, its spokespeople and media have murdered truth already, before the war starts. The invective the Biden administration directed at the Russian government and its President Vladimir Putin has been so vicious that everyone should realize a new U.S. aggression in Eastern Europe, directed against Russia, is underway. The Biden administration invented the story; the corporate media repeated it. Word for word. For mont…

I also use this to discuss the need for people across the world to come together in the fight against the reactionary and repressive governments, ruling class, and their propaganda across the world. Militarization will not solve the issues that capitalism and imperialism have created, only Proletarian revolution and the dictatorship of the working and exploited classes over the former oppressing and exploiting class. This is it, this is our only way out. Let me know what you think of the show!

New cold warriors and atrocity propagandists led by the United States did everything in their power to generate popular support for a full boycott of the Games. NED-backed organizations formed a coalition for the cause, the corporate media engaged in a full-scale "China bad" propaganda blitz, and the political establishment got busy crafting several pieces of legislation to respond to the so-called "China threat." Their efforts failed. To save face, the U.S. implemented a non-consequential "diplomatic boycott" that found support from onl…
