Russia using Cold War era 'Pravda' propaganda on Turkey
2015-12-07

[AA.TR] Russia has activated its Cold War era propaganda system "Pravda news" against The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
as it did during the Ukrainian crisis in accordance with its political interests.

Moscow has been using "Pravda news" propaganda against Turkey since it shot down a Russian SU-24 bomber jet because of Turkish airspace violation despite repeated warnings on Nov. 24.

However,
a poor excuse is better than no excuse at all...
several news items run by Russian outlets have been proven to be completely wrong. For example, the Russian Sputnik News Agency claimed recently that La Belle France's Permanent Representative to NATO
...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A cautionary tale of cost-benefit analysis....
, Jean-Baptiste Mattei, said that "Turkey axes operations against Daesh [Islamic State]"; however, Mattei himself clarified that this Sputnik story was a "lie".

Also, Russian media alleged that there was a picture of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan
... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him...
's son Bilal Erdogan with Daesh [Islamic State] members. However,
a poor excuse is better than no excuse at all...
the picture which showed people with beards sitting alongside Bilal Erdogan were in fact the "Kamber brothers", who are only owners of a restaurant in Istanbul.

Moreover, many Russian commanders claimed that the terrorist organization Daesh [Islamic State] was selling oil via Turkey and also claimed to show routes taken for such oil shipments on maps; however, it was found that the claimed routes were in fact under the control of the Russian government-backed Bashir al-Assad regime and the PYD, the terrorist PKK organization's Syrian affiliate.

Also, former staff of Russian RIA Novosti agency and propagandist expert Vasily Gatov said: "Russian state television
... and if you can't believe state television who can you believe?
s are now applying the tricks for Syria as they do in Ukraine"

Senior Policy Fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations, Andrew Wilson emphasized that "Pravda journalism" had only one message even though it changed at times.

"Pravda journalism's only message is to support Russia's attitude in Ukraine and Syria, and cause confusion abroad," Wilson says.

#6  "Government controlled reproduction "
Managment Summary:
The effect of "welfare" states (child benefit and state schools) is fertility redistribution from the most productive to the least.

#5  We're being poisoned by the food we're too lazy to make. It's a generational war, psycho couch potatoes can't do group maneuvers.

#4  No worries g(r)om. The end of traditional family meals and the default to genetically altered 'fast foods' will continue to sustain childhood obesity, shorten lives and reduce long-term societal impacts. And yes, big pharma will obviously play a key role.

There are simply too many of these people. Government controlled diet [free food], medicine, and selective reproduction [Choice], should go a long way in assisting the much needed reductions.

#3  If anything it's reverse-eugenics nowadays, Besoeker. From my personal observation, children of, midle-crust, artificial-insemination, single mothers are just as psychotic & anti-social as their Ghetto parallels. And any child that doesn't fit the (hog narrow) "norms" taught in teaching colleges and is not in a protected category is a candidate for lifelong doping.

#2  While there are many others (see photo at the right), may I add 'Eugenics' to your evils list? Government controlled reproduction must surely fit in there somewhere.

#1  Today there are two great evils in the World. Islam that is like flesh eating bacteria, and Transnational Progressivism that is like HIV for Western societies. I'm glad that Russia joined Israel on their extermination list.
