The Agency concluded: its best and only asset for doing that was President Obama and his popularity in Western European cities."

I f0und this enlightening piece of journalism thanks to The Jimmy Dore Show:

If you have 13 minutes, believe me, it's worth the watch.

Obama's friendly words and his "presidential" stature were used to sell wars to the US and European public.

Mr. Nobel Peace Prize winner. A warmonger. A killer.

Stop idolizing smooth-talking murderers.

"What I've discovered is that nearly every war that has started in the past fifty years has been a result of media lies. The media could have stopped it if they'd searched deep enough. If they had not reprinted government propaganda. They could have stopped it.

But what does that mean? Well that means, basically, populations don't like wars and populations have to be fooled into wars. Populations don't willingly with open eyes go into war. So if we have a good media environment then you will also have a peaceful environment.

Our number one enemy is ignorance. Ignorance is our number one enemy of everyone and not understanding what is actually going on. It is only when you start to understand that that you can make effective decisions and plans.

Now the question is who is promoting ignorance? Those organizations that tried to keep them secret. And those organizations which distort true information to make it false or misrepresentative. In the latter category it is bad media. The media in general are so bad we have to question whether the world wouldn't be better off without them altogether. There are some very, very fine journalists and media organizations but the vast majority are awful and so distortive how the world actually is. The result is we see wars and corrupt governments continue on. "
