This is how you tell the CIA and Military Industrial Complex doesn't like you:
On 1 April 2003, a United States plane fired on Al Jazeera's Baghdad bureau, killing reporter Tareq Ayyoub. The attack was called "a mistake" by The Pentagon; however, Al Jazeera had supplied the US with a precise map of the location of the bureau in order to spare it from attack.
Apparently they don't want a different point of view than the "official story". -
Voxera113972y@Demolishun Don’t attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence.
Killing a reporter and having to apologize harms their public image more that that reporter could have done.
I think it’s much more likely that either the location never reached the soldiers OR a trigger happy commander saw a coordinate and yelled FIRE before reading the rest. -
@Voxera I have come to believe that the AP is nothing but a western propaganda machine. I think the AP sees competing news sources as enemies. I think the AP is backed by the US military. This allows the US military to subjugate countries around the world and make it look like they are the good guys. This belief has come from years of seeing blatant lies by the AP supporting US actions. I also have friends who saw the military and CNN colluding to lie to the US and other countries about actions they did and did not perform around the world. This was a reason my friend left the military. It was all smoke and mirrors and lies.

jassole18382y@Voxera Oh yes, malice...... Anything is detrimental, degrades credibility is first denied repeatedly, and given enough evidence is then deemed as incompetence.
Abu ghraib - Incompetence
My Lai - Incompetence
ISIS support - Incompetence
Collateral murder - Incompetence
Iraq war - Incompetence
Viet war - Incompetence
Nuclear bombardment of Japanese civilians - Incompetence
I could go on and on....
I see a pattern of too much incompetence on the highest level of US government, -

Wonder if the current economic crisis are deliberate, enlist in the army.... -
@jassole I get the attraction to incompetence. We absolutely do not want to believe that people can in fact be that evil. But just looking at the evil shit done by other governments an the US government you see a deliberate pattern. What was an eye opener for me was the realization that the Nazi experimentation on people didn't end with the Nazis. If anything it went global and become more widespread. Just looking at what Fauci did with AIDS should be enough to make anyone question medical authority. Denying people real treatments for the disease and the treatment available was making people sick and die. Then they do the same thing with covid. With the same POS in charge.
Your country in internal crisis? Wanna find out how to get out of it, or take the blame out of you? Start a war and blame other country.
