THE BBC has created the impression that the rejection of fascism in the Crimea is more abhorrent than all the casual slaughter the USA is inflicting on Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Libya, Somalia, etc, or is in some way more sinister than the opportunistic Israeli bombing of Syria or its accelerated assassination of Palestinian youth.
How sickening it is to see MPs of all parties taking turns to be ‘outraged’ at Russian expansionism.
Perhaps the 50 US military bases currently operating in this country without any supervision from Whitehall ensure their subservience.
Just seeing Ed Miliband and his shambling apologists offering deranged support to Tory buffoons offering the same to their US speech writers, ensures that another generation will disengage from the pointless and demeaning process that elects the establishment every time.
