Another Example of U.S. Censorship of Mainstream Media:

It appears that the U.S. Mainstream media is going to ignore this story even though Cynthia McKinney was once a Congresswoman from Georgia and a Presidential candidate. How odd. What does this say about the news we receive daily from the mainstream media.

      Muslims killing Chinese. Muslims killing Hebrews. Muslims killing Phillipinos. Muslims killing Russians. Muslims killing English. Muslims killing Indians. Muslims killing Canadians. Muslims killing Spanish. Muslims killing Amercians. The World Must Get Justice. Things can never be right until the world gets justice for Muslim crimes against humanity.

      Arabs lying in newspapers, Arabs controlling world media, Arab murderers killed thousands of Americans, they killed our Marines in Beirut, on 9/11 they burned people alive. Ask yourself, why has there been no justice? Who controls the world banks and media that whitewashed the Arabs and ignores all of their crimes and plot to destroy the world? Watch FITNA!

      That IS new...but fortunately we can work backward to the "truth" (which will, in turn, set us free...or so I understand).

      So the Arabs control the U.S. media AND the Jews control the U.S. media. At first blush, that may seem to be a contradiction -- how can two different groups both control?

      But they are NOT two ENTIRELY different groups. There is the tiniest bit of overlap in the form of Arab Jews. Examples include Arabs who have converted to Judaism for the sake of their spouse.

      So there you have it: Arab Jews control the United States media. You're welcome.

    • Hahha above is a liar.

      There are records of who receives what.

      HE GREAT BENEFACTOR

      Since the October War in 1973, Washington has provided Israel with a level of support dwarfing the amounts provided to any other state. It has been the largest annual recipient of direct U.S. economic and military assistance since 1976 and the largest total recipient since World War II. Total direct U.S. aid to Israel amounts to well over $140 billion in 2003 dollars.2 Israel receives about $3 billion in direct foreign assistance each year, which is roughly one

      ‐fifth of America's foreign aid budget. In per capita terms, the United States gives each Israeli a direct subsidy worth about $500 per year.3 This largesse is especially striking when one realizes that Israel is now a wealthy industrial state with a per capita income roughly equal to South Korea or Spain.4
      Israel also gets other special deals from Washington.5 Other aid recipients get their money in quarterly installments, but Israel receives its entire appropriation at the beginning of each fiscal year and thus earns extra interest. Most recipients of American military assistance are required to spend all of it in the United States, but Israel can use roughly twenty

    • What would the media and US government do if IRAN pirated a humanitarian aid ship and KIDNAPPED a US Congressman/woman and Nobel Laureate?

      They'd have a field day on that...but with Israel, the Media is controlled by the Jewish Lobby, so of course, they wont 'get on this'.

      Bunch of swine the lobby is

      Haha, lying Arab! More US money goes to Arabs than Israel. More US taxpayer blood sweat going to give missiles to Arabs. So much money given to the Arabs who occupy Iraq. Why so much money to the Arabs? They control the media and the banks. Check out who the richest people in the world are: Arabs. Check out who gets most aid from US: Arabs. Check out who the media must get approval from: Arabs. The posters on this page are Arab lobbyists. The Arab Lobby is the most insidious force on earth. How else are they able to plan and coordinate attacks around the world while Europe and the US just stand back and watch? How is it that the Arabs occupying the land they call Saudi Arabia were able to get off sco-free after planning 9/11? How is it that the first thing Bush did after 9/11 was help the Arabs escape from the US? Think about it.

    • Most of mainstream media is owned by the American war machine, GE on top of all the other corporations that carry ownership of each other. They profit from war and they sell war machinery to Isreal. Isreal has probably the most effective lobby group in the world and is expert at twisting the arms of our congress and senate reps. You might notice that every time a US senator or congress person actually speaks up about the Isreali abuse of the Palistinian people, they retract their statement or soften it within days. People like McKinney who dare to speak out are marginalized in the media by being ignored or misrepresented. Same with Ralph Nader. If you speak out too loudly for those who are most oppressed, you will be marginalized.
      It is quite clearly intentional. The fact that someone of McKinney's stature is kidnapped by the Isreali's and it is not top of the news is horrifying.

    • This was one of the few posts on the subject I put up while it was happening.....but I later edited and updated the content. The next post below was perhaps the first post I put up 5 days ago.

    • It means they reported on it days ago and it's no longer news.

      http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/12/30/gaza.aid.boat/index.html

      This was a report on THE DIGNITY aship that the Israelis rammed with the passengers on board......this ship was so badly damaged in 2008 it never sailed again I think. The report was the voyage made in late Dec. 2008. The link is the first one above..............and also the last link above.

      You are correct in finding that the news was out there.....I think it was buried a bit however.............I posted it on current when the Israelis were only surrounding the boat. .........and no doubt the newspapers all got press releases from Free Gaza Movement.

    • Of coarse it's censorship. You think that the mainstream media don't have huge mideast staffs? We are a nation of sheep that think we have an open society. The possibility of this happening was in the media, but when the Israelis actually acted the info dried up. We support our client states and if you think it's to make the world safe for democracy you have bought the lie bigtime.
