Its a mystery to me as to why the Old Media insists on reporting the amateurish propaganda that comes out of the middle east while ignoring reporting any news stories that promote the best interest of the United States. Its a very strange phenomena that just defies explanation. Why would they want to undermine their own country and betray their own people?

The Old Media doesn’t even seem to particularly mind that the fake news is so obviously fake. It doesn’t matter much to them, as long as they get away with it. Even if they are caught at it, they can pretty much shrug it off. Getting caught in lies and propaganda is not a career ender most of the time.

The fake news has been coming out of the middle east, and possibly with the assistance of some Westerners, since at least 9/11/2001. Most recently we see the AFP report in the screenshot below. It is fake news presented to the American public as fact. Take notice of the inflammatory verbiage and imagery used. An elderly woman. The ‘bullets’ hit her house (pay attention to the condition of the shiny ‘bullets’ she is holding up - they haven’t hit anything). 175 people were ’slaughtered’. Pictures and words are powerful.

Doesn’t leave much of a question as to whose side the writer of this article is on.

jihad bullets

Unfortunately, there are many people who don’t pay close enough attention to see that the bullets aren’t bullets at all, but UNUSED cartridges. Many people only get the talking points, the sound bites or the headlines and take that as fact. The result of the barrage of often ridiculous propaganda is a whittling away of public support for our military and therefore the weakening of the defenses for America.

Our Soldiers were once heroes and their image has gradually been undermined to the point they are viewed as ignorant, uneducated, sadistic barbarians. They are the ones who stand between us and danger and yet our own media feeds us a constant diet of ‘the troops are bad’ and ‘muslims are oppressed by us’ and ‘muslims only cut off people’s heads because we are oppressing them’ and ‘we are the bad guys and they are the good guys.’ The lies defy all common sense, but they are repeated enough times that people start believing it.

As LindaSog wrote about this particular piece of propaganda:

And although it made us angry, still, we laughed. We laughed because it’s so ridiculous that it’s funny. Except… it’s not really funny. It’s not funny because there are people out there who are foolish and ignorant enough to believe the mainstream media and their made-up version of reality. And that’s scary, not funny.

One of the best ways to counter those who take themselves way too seriously and continue to put out this kind of propaganda is to make fun of them. The Dissident Frogman has done an exceptionally good job of that in this video. He explains how the ‘bullet’ (cartridges) the elderly woman is holding could not have hit her house.

This video is absolutely hilarious. Make sure you watch it all the way through the credits to the very end.
