Whats up with this war against Russia and Georgia?

When I heard about this whole Russia and Georgia thing, the first thing that came to mind was...where is the oil.

I didn't know for sure that oil was involved but I figured that it must be. Well, today I read on the BBC website: BP shuts down Georgia Pipelines. How nice is that?

Energy giant BP says it has shut two of three pipelines that run through Georgia as a precautionary measure. Of course I am sure that will insure the current price of gasoline. www.newsvote.bbc.co.uk

There is a station down the street from me that is a BP station. It sits across the street from a Citgo station. The BP station has a sign that says that BP is the better gas because they produce to most oil for the US and because they are not run by a dictator. Give me a break. They act as if BP is an American company. The BP stands for British Petroleum. They could give to hoots about our country.

This seems very much like our participation in Iraq. We kept things in conflict until they caved to our way of thinking. Now that they have agreed to let BP, Unocal, Chevron and all the other oil companies to do business, unfairly at that, then the violence goes down. Imagine. Now violence is picking up in Afghanistan because there is a pipeline that runs through the mountains where the Taliban are in charge. Hunt oil company has been active there. We are having conflict again because the tribal leaders don't like the fact that the US is going back on its word.

PROPAGANDA


If you look at the pictures at the top, you will see that the people all look different but upon closer inspection the whole picture begins to look strange. For instance in the first picture you can see one obviously dead body of a person in a checkered shirt. The other body is carried by medics, carried as if it was a dead body, but you can notice that the hand of a person is holding a woman medic's sleeve. Well so far everything looks pretty real, except maybe for one guy in black who doesn't look anyhow concerned.

Then if you look at the second picture:

Now on the second picture we see a crying man and a body in his hands. But look closely! This is the same checkered shirt, same trousers and shoes, the same person. So does it mean that the crying man took the body brought it some place else? Hardly so, this is just one of the participants of the show. And again if you look close enough you can notice that the guy crying is the person in black from the previous picture.

Then on the third picture:

Now here he is again, alone still with some clothes on, or may be he got changed.

Generally if you see the pictures you can notice that nothing happens around the scene. No people running, and there are actually not a lot of people for a big residential building area if it was really bombed.

Not oly was Reuters busted for faking war photos but so was CNN.


CNN blamed for using misleading war video
American broadcaster CNN has been accused of using the wrong pictures in their coverage of the conflict in South Ossetia. A Russian cameraman says footage of wrecked tanks and ruined buildings, which was purported to have been filmed in the town of Gori, in fact showed the South Ossetian capital Tskhinvali.




So you see, nothing is as it seems is it?

"Truth is not what happened, truth is what we tell people".

Keep a sharp eye open for the misleading news. It is all around us.
