Accuracy in Media

It’s amazing how CNN’s talking heads can devote so much time to the “scandal” of Donald J. Trump’s sons participating in interviews of cabinet picks, but can’t connect the dots between the bloody tragedy in Aleppo and President Barack Obama’s pro-terrorist policy in the Middle East.

During the day on Wednesday, we saw CNN repeatedly air gruesome film footage of the massacre of civilians in Aleppo by the Russians and their Iranian and Syrian puppets. Not once did any CNN talking head bother to point out that Obama’s policy of intervention, through support of terrorist groups in Syria who are losing the war, may have had a role in the unfolding massacre.

In a scandal that makes the alleged Russian hacking of Democratic emails appear minor by comparison, a Democratic member of the U.S. House has taken to the House floor to say that Obama’s CIA has been aiding the Islamic terrorist groups ISIS and al-Qaeda for the purpose of overthrowing the Syrian regime.

The author basically gave a complete pass to massacres reportedly carried out by Russia, Syria and Iran. They are responsible for their own actions just as much as Obama is, if the author cannot say this then he is a propagandist.

As scandals go, wouldn't it be interesting to count the number on-air minutes devoted to each scandal over the past 5 years or so?

Forget about what they actually say on air, just count the sheer number of minutes.  Then its just a matter of listing the results as if they were in a Excel spreadsheet.  Nothing would more clearly illustrate where their priorities lie.

Of course we can easily guess at the results.  We would see things like Chris Christie's bridge scandal had 28 times more attention given to it than the VA killing our veterans through institutional neglect.

Blood is on Obama's hands alright. Not because he refused to intervene in Syria's civil war, but because he with other western leaders encouraged the uprising there, and in Libya, Egypt, Tunisia, etc in the first place.

Exactly.

Not to worry, MSM reports on the middle east warS will be more common than commercials the second Trump is sworn in.  Remember the MSM coverage and how "thorough" it was under Bush but instantly died the second Imam Obama was sworn in?

The title says "THE" blood. This tells me that the author has completely absolved the ones who pulled the trigger. This makes the author unreliable and probably insane.

Largely agree when it comes to Assad;

That Iranian / Syrian / Hezbollah axis is mischievous, Syria is still at a state of war with Israel even if it is not an active war.

If ISIS is the big problem over there, why aren't they being gone after by Russia and Syria? The rebels were in Aleppo and then, ISIS took back Palmyra and from news I read it on it, they are still there.

Remember, the Admin. did want to act against Assad after the "alleged" gassing but there was a bit of a public outcry.

There are no good guys there, no real side for the US to take. We have no business going in unilaterally either. It's better for us to stay out.

Some people need to figure out what the word LEADERSHIP actually means.
It's not polls, it's not doing what might be popular at the moment. 
It's not appeasing the 'majority' of the uninformed populace.
And it's certainly not appeasing the loudmouthed so called right wing talkers.
This is a lesson that will never be learned by itsy bitsy.

Good thing they handed Obama the Nobel Peace Prize early, it would be a bit awkward now.

Yep. He got the 'Peace Prize' something like 15 days after he was elected. (First Black President award)


Let's look at all of Obama's 'Peace' achievements.
--------------------------------------------------------------
He sent illegal arms to cartels in Mexico ostensibly so he could "track them". (yeah right)
He created an extrajudicial "kill list" and started killing people all over the world, including Americans, by drone strikes.
He increased support of Hamas and the PLO by increasing the money and arms sent to them.
He pulled all troops out of a 'relatively stable' Iraq which led to a complete implosion of the country and an Iranian takeover.
He helped overthrow the stable government of Egypt and supported the Muslim Brotherhood takeover.
He sent massive amounts of arms to shady un-vetted groups in Syria which are linked to atrocities which certainly exacerbated the situation there.
He illegally overthrew the government of Libya with no justification at all and now the country is in complete chaos.


Obama and Hillary are responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths and the destruction of half a dozen otherwise stable countries. Whether it was done by design or by blind incompetence the result remains the same. They are the architects of the worst foreign policy initiatives in American history. And we can clearly see the trail of wreckage they have left in their wake in every nation they "helped".


Obama has made the Peace Prize more of a joke than anything else. When anyone gets a Peace Prize today, the common response is, 'Yeah sure. Just like Obama. LOL'

Good points.  Funny how none of these things are Obama's fault, according to public opinion.  Thanks to intrepid journalists at places like CNN they've managed to deflect blame away from Obama and onto phantom boogeymen. 

But his record is clear.  Obama has been very pro chaos, pro terrorist and pro Muslim Brotherhood.

On the other side of the ledger Obama has walked away from numerous opportunities to promote stability, democracy and religious freedom.

During the run up to the election there were hundreds of polls asking questions such as, "Are you better off than you were 4 years ago?"  Further, there was no shortage of "national discussions" on topics such as healthcare and national security.  But they missed many critical questions that get right down to the heart of the matter. 

I'd suggest, "What is the proper amount of U.S. taxpayer dollars to spend funding terrorism?"

That would make for some very interesting poll results since most people would answer "zero".  That is because the vast majority of the American public does not realize we have become one of the leading funding organizations of terrorism on the planet, if not number one.
