Amerikaanse propaganda domineert nog steeds

    Over "desinformatie", door wie verspreid?

    In herdenking: 75 geleden vielen de atoombommen op Hiroshima en Nagasaki,

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    “No Radioactivity in Hiroshima Ruin” said a New York Times headline on September 13, 1945, a classic of planted disinformation. “General Farrell,” reported William H. Lawrence, “denied categorically that [the atomic bomb] produced a dangerous, lingering radioactivity.”

    Only one reporter, Wilfred Burchett, an Australian, had braved the perilous journey to Hiroshima in the immediate aftermath of the atomic bombing, in defiance of the Allied occupation authorities, which controlled the “press pack”.

    “I write this as a warning to the world,” reported Burchett in the London Daily Express of September 5,1945. Sitting in the rubble with his Baby Hermes typewriter, he described hospital wards filled with people with no visible injuries who were dying from what he called “an atomic plague”.

    For this, his press accreditation was withdrawn, he was pilloried and smeared. His witness to the truth was never forgiven.

    The atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was an act of premeditated mass murder that unleashed a weapon of intrinsic criminality. It was justified by lies that form the bedrock of America’s war propaganda in the 21st century, casting a new enemy, and target – China.

    During the 75 years since Hiroshima, the most enduring lie is that the atomic bomb was dropped to end the war in the Pacific and to save lives.

    “Even without the atomic bombing attacks,” concluded the United States Strategic Bombing Survey of 1946, “air supremacy over Japan could have exerted sufficient pressure to bring about unconditional surrender and obviate the need for invasion. “Based on a detailed investigation of all the facts, and supported by the testimony of the surviving Japanese leaders involved, it is the Survey’s opinion that … Japan would have surrendered even if the atomic bombs had not been dropped, even if Russia had not entered the war [against Japan] and even if no invasion had been planned or contemplated.”

    The National Archives in Washington contains documented Japanese peace overtures as early as 1943. None was pursued. A cable sent on May 5, 1945 by the German ambassador in Tokyo and intercepted by the U.S. made clear the Japanese were desperate to sue for peace, including “capitulation even if the terms were hard”. Nothing was done.

    The U.S. Secretary of War, Henry Stimson, told President Truman he was “fearful” that the U.S. Air Force would have Japan so “bombed out” that the new weapon would not be able “to show its strength”. Stimson later admitted that “no effort was made, and none was seriously considered, to achieve surrender merely in order not to have to use the [atomic] bomb”.

    Na de oorlog ging de VS gewoon door met het uitmoorden van onschuldige mensen,
    die eerst werden voorgelogen dat ze geen gevaar liepen:

    Dezelfde leugen propaganda ging naar het 'thuisfront'

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    En de Amerikaanse oorlogspropaganda domineert nog steeds:

    Today, an unprecedented campaign of propaganda is shooing us all off like rabbits. We are not meant to question the daily torrent of anti-Chinese rhetoric, which is rapidly overtaking the torrent of anti-Russia rhetoric. Anything Chinese is bad, anathema, a threat: Wuhan …. Huawei. How confusing it is when “our” most reviled leader says so.

    The current phase of this campaign began not with Trump but with Barack Obama, who in 2011 flew to Australia to declare the greatest build-up of U.S. naval forces in the Asia-Pacific region since World War Two. Suddenly, China was a “threat”. This was nonsense, of course. What was threatened was America’s unchallenged psychopathic view of itself as the richest, the most successful, the most “indispensable” nation.

    What was never in dispute was its prowess as a bully — with more than 30 members of the United Nations suffering American sanctions of some kind and a trail of the blood running through defenceless countries bombed, their governments overthrown, their elections interfered with, their resources plundered.

    Als ik dat zo lees mag China wel een paar militaire bases in Afrika hebben, toch?
    (niet alleen in de chinese zee)
    M.a.w. wie is er nu bezig met militaire expansie over de hele wereld?

    Light on the opaque world of the American military presence in Africa.
    Last year, elite U.S. Special Operations forces were active in 22 African countries.
    This accounts for 14 percent of all American commandos deployed overseas,
    the largest number for any region besides the Middle East.
    American troops had also seen combat in 13 African nations.

    The U.S. is not formally at war with an African nation, and the continent is
    barely discussed in reference to American exploits around the globe.
    Therefore, when U.S. operatives die in Africa, as happened in Niger, Mali, and
    Somalia in 2018, the response from the public, and even from the media is often
    why are American soldiers there in the first place?

    The presence of the U.S. military, especially commandos, is rarely publicly
    acknowledged, either by Washington or by African governments.
    What they are doing remains even more opaque. U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM)
    generally claims that special forces go no further than so-called “AAA”
    (advise, assist and accompany) missions. Yet in combat, the role between
    observer and participant can become distinctly blurry.

    Earlier this year, The Intercept reported that the military operates 29 bases on the continent.
    One of these is a huge drone hub in Niger, something The Hill called
    “the largest U.S. Air Force-led construction project of all time.”
    The construction cost alone was over $100 million, with total operating costs
    expected to top $280 billion by 2024. Equipped with Reaper drones, the U.S.
    can now conduct cross border bombing raids all over the North and West of Africa.
