For example, one may conclude that strong evidence along these lines exists if a major newspaper chain inadvertently publishes a detailed story on a mass shooting across its platforms from a major wire service before the event has transpired. This appears to be what Canada’s Postmedia did with an Associated Press story its outlets published one day before the San Bernardino incident allegedly took place. The posts, captured in screen shots here, have since been scrubbed from the company’s sites.<br /><br />James Tracy memoryholeblog.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20524196.post-56027942194271579142016-06-18T07:45:53.253-04:002016-06-18T07:45:53.253-04:00"The fact that the author of this post had to..."The fact that the author of this post had to switch between channels representing two opposing factions to get the report on Orlando says it all."<br />Had to? or simply DID. Frankly, I'd like to think that MORE than two "sources" were reviewed, but "from two different factions" does INDEED say it all. It's EXACTLY why THIS blog is but ONE of my OWN "more than one source" regular haunts, regardless if I feel comfortable, or agree, with the content, or not.<br />I'm biased, in my own discrimination, like that.

I mean barely. To us Muslims were far far away and part of our history books with little to no reason to even think about them. Muslims and the Crusades were centuries ago and ancient history. My how just a few decades have totally changed that thinking. From my Christian POV I see and understand how and why this has to all take place. You might want to pick up two books. Both by Joel Richardson. The first is called "The Islamic Anti-Christ" and the second is called "The Mid-East Beast." He's got a good handle on where we're going and why and how Islam is not going away anytime soon.

In this case, where "news" is concerned, the butcher is a corporate stooge pushing an agenda .do you think fox or CNN will be running the story about Romania and Israel being caught supplying ammo to Isis yesterday? Or the fact that one of the Orlando survivors is an actor, who on the IMDb web site has a a credit for being an actor in something about an Orlando nightclub!! Yup. Can't make this stuff up. Question it all.<br /><br />The fact that the author of this post had to switch between channels representing two opposing factions to get the report on Orlando says it all. Why on gods green earth would you need to do such a thing in a supposedly free country? The news should not be pushing an agenda. It becomes merely propaganda and pr. Isn't this obvious?

...I used to question everything, at a certain age. <br />I dare say I would have caused our host much concern (or amusement) in his former arena. Unfortunately for many college tier "teachers", I began to recognize patterns <br />WAAAAAY before I got there, making many of the "new ideas" useless to me.<br />Granted, Rathskeller lubricated conversations with fellow elementary/secondary/higher students NOT from my personal sphere of influence were FAR more valuable to me than<br />what credentialed experts were "professing". Again, pattern recognition. <br />*sigh* I COULD cite "esteemed" folks famous for being famously "complex", and references to literature oriented toward children are easy pickings. Sadly (I eventually realized), not everyone is familiar with the same 2000 year old "truisms".

Other countries have dealt with this for some time yet still can't seem to come to grips with the issue or what it will take to unite everyone against it. Once all law abiding gun owners here become instant criminals due to more "common sense" gun control laws, what next? To believe that one who does not harm to others unless attacked can somehow become the criminal is beyond comprehension.Paul Gallanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16371587768530901714noreply@blogger.com
