with Chris Hedges
RT America on Jan 10, 2017
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and “On Contact” host Chris Hedges gives RT America’s Simone Del Rosario his analysis of the latest attacks on independent journalism from the recent US intelligence report on Russian “interference” in the 2016 election as well as groundless allegations from Washington Post and Prop or Not. Then, RT correspondent Gayane Chichakyan reports on the State Department’s “high degree of confidence” in the findings, despite the absence of any evidence behind their claims, and the parallels between accusations of “Russian hacking” and lies about WMDs in Iraq.

Of course they have a “…high degree of confidence” in the findings of Steele, their alleged ex-MI6 hireling ~ because the narrative is tailored to fit their intentions!
Trump may surprise them all, especially as Chimerica is just over the horizon. The question is, do ‘great walls’ contain, exclude or diminish? So far as Mexico is concerned, it could simply encourage coastal access on both oceans…&, maybe inhibit Monsanto-Bayer ~ lock them out.
Thanks, David, great having you back. Walls keep people in, too.
Thanks Lo; of course they do, the most disgraceful and salient example being Palestine…
…I was in Oxford for the Real Farming Conference, and also joined a brilliant 3 day gathering of academic Arabists at the Ashmolean coordinated with a fabulous exhibition there http://www.ashmolean.org/exhibitions/powerprotection/
A lot to think about…
Thanks for the link; hope you enjoyed the conference.
