Why I no longer trust mainstream (lamestream) media!

Syrian observatory for human rights.

You can find this so called organisation quoted every day almost, the BBC, Guardian, CNN, Fox news in fact all of them, every newspaper, every news channel on tv, so who are these people, in this massive organisation, that covers the whole of Syria?
I know by now you must be thinking to cover the whole of Syria, that this organisation has funding from NATO, or Reuters or just run by 1000's of volunteers right? wrong. Allow me to introduce one Rami Abdulrahman, the only member of this organisation, he lives in a small flat in Coventry England, yes you heard that right, Coventry.

From what I can find on Rami, he was arrested for theft and other petty crimes in Syria 3 or 4 times, he fled the country when he got out of jail, and headed to the UK as a refugee of war, as you may be able to understand, he holds a lot of feelings of resentment to the authorities in Syria, so can hardly be called "impartial" yet here he is everyday, quoted by one and all, as the voice on the streets of Syria. How do we take these news outlets serious any more, when it is so blatant to see, that they pick and choose sources to fit their own narrative of "regime change.?
Since oil was found in the Golan heights, and many an American senator being on the board of directors of the oil companies involved in the drilling and exploration, we can expect this war to drag on, till there is not a single house left in Syria.

You can take a look via drone footage regarding what is left, of the once great city Aleppo, it is only 2 minutes long, and well worth a look, to get some perspective of what has been going on here, with NATO indiscriminately bombing the place back to medieval times. I have some Syrian friends here in Poland, they are genuine refugees, and a nicer family you could not wish to meet.

Until the next time friends, peace and love, steem on and stay AWESOME!

I agree 100% my friend, thanks for taking the time to read my article.

radio4all.net is a great source for syria news

This Week in Palestine, Jeff Blankfort and the Taylor Report are really good mp3 news shows that you can get for free and have people from the region who live there reporting what is going on rather than some american reporting on what an american says about what an israeli functionary said about what assad may or may not have at one time said.

That said, the most disturbing thing I read is that the 'white helmets' staged an explosion, separated mothers from their children in busses, and then stole all the children and over a hundred disappeared into turkey.

Ill post when I find again, its in my archive somewhere...

Thanks for the info, that bus incident was around August was it not?
