Aiyirah al-Sabah, daughter of the Kuwaiti Ambassador to the US, cried before a Congressional committee in the run-up to the First Gulf War, telling Senators about Saddam Hussein's troops taking babies out of incubators and throwing them on hospital floors. It was a lie. But hey, it worked the first time; why not repeat the propaganda technique again and again until it stops working?
From soup to nuts?
We're back to Syria. The veto stopped NATO nations from gaining legitimacy, so they continue on with their illegitimate tactics.
I promise at some point in time there will be other topics here. Honest!
But for now.... it is, what it is.
You may have seen two interesting news stories yesterday. They're both as bogus as a "wooden nickel" or a three dollar bill.
First one: "
Premature babies in incubators in Homs"
How many incubator stories do you have to hear or read before you "get it"?
How many incubator stories does the media have to give you before you "awaken" to the lies?
During the uprising in Egypt there was an incubator baby story (I covered that one somewhere on this blog). Were their incubator babies in Libya? Or was it just the Viagra tale?
Of course the most infamous was Iraq and the Kuwaiti princess and that version of the incubator story. I am hoping everyone is familiar with that one?
If not, read
When contemplating war beware of babies& incubators
Comment: Perhaps realising that publishing this story this would work against their propaganda efforts ahead of carpet-bombing Syria, France 24 cut short their report at the opening line and the Syrian
rebelsarmybranch of al-CIA-duh have since recanted.
