Propaganda Machine At Work!

I have been bitching about the worthlessness of the MSM when it comes to reporting the news…..they , MSM, give the public worthless fluff and avoid the real stories that actually need covering….gossip and award shows hold NO importance to the set of events that control this country…..

Below explains why we can NOT get real news……instead we get propaganda and misinformation…..

And it is not just here that misinformation abounds……

This photo is from an article written in al-Arabiya…….

The article talks about the Syrian army liberating a town on the outskirts of Aleppo in the country’s Northern regions……(read it for yourself)…….

Source: Syrian army grabs Aleppo province town from ISIS – Al Arabiya English

The picture is propaganda….why?

The flag being carried by the soldiers is the Palestinian flag not the one of Syria…..my question to these people was….”why is the Syrian soldier carrying a Palestinian flag?”

No reply yet…….

The story was also carried by the AP and the photo credit goes to SANA…..that is the official Syrian press agency…..sorry as far as I can tell it is a faked photo…..issued for propaganda purposes…..

  1. All the news that’s fit to contrive, to invent, to enhance, to sensationalize, to make up and to make into salable theatrics so that the investors can be pleased with the performance of their favorite little rag or electronic mouth. Goebbels would have been beside himself with glee.

  2. I wonder if it is even the town being discussed in the article…. Towns in the desert all seem to look alike….

    I forget who said this, but, it’s true… “Believe only 50% of what you see, and nothing of what you hear.” It’s a good rule of thumb…

    1. I have been told that the flag is that of the Syrian Baath party….I have checked out the info and it has proven to be correct….so there is the possibility that the photo is accurate….my bad! chuq

      1. Well, it can be hard to sort out the wheat from the chaff, when all of it is delusion based activity…. The only ones who know the actual truth are those in the middle of the fighting…and their truth is reduced to only what is happening around them…

      2. I asked for clarification and a professor in the Middle East did so….I appreciate the heads up….it is good to have friends in the region….chuq

  3. Still this picture is strange. Look at some of the persons on it.
    Look at the person in alignment with the Syrian flag. It looks like this person has no head. Or a very long one.

    Than on the right there is a figure (red shirt) that seams to sit/stand.
    But his legs aren’t in proportion with the rest.

    Look for some time at the picture.
    I get the impression as if the persons in the front have been positioned there (Photoshopped maybe?)

  4. I did check the flags too. Came to the same conclusion. The flags are correct. Still I can’t explain the man under the Syrian flag. I have zoomed in on that part of the picture, but it still not clear how to interpret a man’s body with a ? in place where a head should be.

      1. This picture did still bother me! One thing is not strange as I looked better, the man with no head has a head. The coat he is wearing and as I looked better, he has a helmet on his head, the only one on this picture, is seams the he merged with the the pole.

        Did you consider that the flag could be the Arab Federation flag?
        The Palestinianand the Arab Federation flag only differ in the size of the red triangle.

        I tend to the Palestinian one but the proportion of the triangle are not clearly visible.

        Yesterday and today I spent some time to find this picture on the SANA site. Can’t find it! Stopped searching! I know myself, otherwise I do focus to much energy on it.
