Exposing John Pilger & U.K. Stop the War Coalition

Parliament Square Peace Campaign | 26.01.2014 07:41 | Anti-militarism | Repression | Social Struggles | London | World


We recently exposed how John Pilger had never accurately reported on our campaign, including that he lied about the fact that our campaign continued.

Nevertheless, John Pilger who is unapologetic about his own lies for the British Establishment of media and government, uses his latest article to continue to position himself as one of...the people.

The tactic of controlled opposition like the media, and including John Pilger, is to invent and use the role of "journalist" to put out selective facts, with the purpose of "informing"...the people, that there is nothing...the people can do about those facts.

Pilger alludes to the -process of censorship- by omission to say:

Is media just another word for control ? January 2nd 2014


"...we in Britain have been misled by those whose job is to keep the record straight."

"...Pinter was referring to the systematic crimes of the United States and to an undeclared censorship by omission - that is, leaving out... information that might help us make sense of the world."

"Imagine if the lies of governments had been properly challenged and exposed as they secretly prepared to invade Iraq - perhaps a million people would be alive today"

Imagine if John Pilger and the leadership of the U.K Stop the War Coalition had told the truth about our campaign challenging the U.K State...for years !

John Pilger is being disingenuous when he claims that the "media has been hijacked".

The current mainstream media model which exists is purely profit driven could only ever lead, to business interests being placed before human life.

John Pilger along with all other traditional media, have all knowingly and willingly been entirely complicit in following the journalistic model that they report there is nothing the people can do to change anything.

The leadership of the U.K Stop the War Coalition are also part of the same -process- of censorship by omission.

The U.K Stop the War Coalition, "forgot" that when their Ken Livingstone was Mayor of London in 2007, and Tony Benn appeared on behalf of Democracy Village in the High Court, in 2010, that the leadership of U.K Stop the War Coalition, overtly sought to destroy our campaign.

It is therefore no surprise that the U.K Stop the War as news aggregators at www.stopwar.org, repeat Pilger's article, continuing what is a multi layered -process- of "censorship by omission".

This multi layered -process- of "censorship by omission" includes violent state repression of people neither Pilger nor U.K Stop the War Coalition can mention, because it is a process they are part of.

John Pilger and the leadership of the U.K Stop the War Coalition, are controlled opposition -whose sole purpose- in their separate roles, is to prevent the people...challenging...the system.

Their only true purpose remains, to preserve the status quo.
