I don't trust the BBC home service, they are establishment through and through and so my news is gleaned from other places such as RT, Press TV, Al Jazeera English and CNN where I will also take from the BBC world service as it is a bit different from what those at home are fed.
But from observing such news outlets I find it interesting to read the comments were comments are invited where there is an overwhelming condemnation aimed at the US, Britain and Israel for most that's going wrong in the Middle East, where true those countries are known for influencing what perhaps should not be influenced through their foreign policy, but of the influenced, they have to accept fifty percent of the blame because they took the money, where they didn't have to, but poor nations do. But is it all the afore mentioned's fault or is it Britain America and Israel just come in for the default flak because it is traditional to blame the Imperialistic which then perhaps goes on to motivate the anti western mentality that the militant need to get their jollies.
But whatever, but what one has to understand is one does not win hearts and minds by making enemies of people who are not their enemy for what government does is rarely ever the will of the people but government and there government policy can be influenced through emotion and so why our little war monger is saying britain has to be practical in it's approach to the current situation for the safety of British citizens and '' interests '' in Egypt.
But emotion is a powerful tool it can cause change beyond any sense of practicality and so one wonders at the media who is pulling their strings for the media being the unofficial public educator is not without agenda and so everything a country beyond those in the know understands is what the media says it is whether that knowledge is accurate or not for they very much lead the blind.
Me, I seek world peace and prosperity because I believe it can be had through people being happy as happiness is a motivator of prosperity and so of what goes on in the world in terms of what is reported by those that make money or derive political other from what is news I employ the old adage ;
Believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see ......and that through doing what I do with the news outlets I use where I know what we get fed at home most often supports our government's stance, which might not be my stance given they did not have my support to gain power.
But of news coming out of the region, all hail the personal blog where what the media says can be tested and there judged.
