The Qana Massacre And The Risks Of Relying On Israeli Propaganda
05-08-2006 13:26
This article discusses an example of American mainstream media's uncritical bias towards Israel. In this particular instance, CNN and Paula Zahn got burned when they aired an Israeli Defense Force-provided surveillance video purporting to show Hezbollah rockets being fired in Qana on the day a nearby house was bombed, killing scores of Lebanese civilians, including many children. Subsequently, Israel announced that it had no clear proof that rockets had been fired from this location on the day of the bombing.New Drugs Research is Just Plain Nutts!

Brize Norton: A few facts, and how Brize and Prestwick are linked
04-08-2006 07:29
Almost inevitably, in an attempt to alert people to events at an early stage we may use second-hand or less-than-complete information. I/we will always try to clarify and correct as quickly as possible.In the case of the plane sightings at Brize Norton, it now seems extremely probable that there has so far only been one plane.
