Behind The Media Propaganda: Father Of "Drowned Syrian Boy" Was People Smuggler
To a certain extent, the old adage “out of sight, out of mind” is unavoidable for anyone, but we don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say that Western society and especially the American public, exhibit a generalized ignorance to events taking place beyond their borders that’s completely out of synch with the degree to which most Westerners have easy access to information. That is, if the US public cared to know what was going on outside of suburbia and beyond the Starbucks drive-throughs and the strip mall Targets they most certainly could find out, but that would likely mean discovering all manner of really inconvenient and often disturbing things and so, at the end of the day, willful ignorance allows everyone to perpetuate the myth that everything is fine. For its part, the media is more than happy to expose harsh realities as long as they’re conducive to ratings so, for instance, “unarmed black teen shot 18 times by angry white police officer” works well, while “Syria’s bloody civil war continues unabated” does not because to the largely ignorant public, Syria might as well be Mars and if for some inexplicable reason, life or death ended up coming down to being able to correctly identify Syria on an unlabeled map, well, it would be time to start praying.
Sometimes, however, the media stumbles across or, more likely, is fed an image or a series of images that are so indelible that they’re forced to run them, and the public consciousness is, if but for a fleeting moment, jarred out of its perpetual stupor. That’s what happened in 2013 when YouTube videos appeared to show the victims of a so-called “gas attack” that Bashar al-Assad decided, apparently out of the clear blue sky, to launch on his own people even though were the story true, it would seem to have been a rather peculiar strategy given that the strongman was fully aware that the US was just waiting on an excuse to launch a few cruise missiles. Then, a little more than two years later, we got another example of imagery powerful enough to focus the public’s attention on a far-away civil war when the body of a drowned toddler washed up on a beach in Turkey.
And even though connecting the proverbial dots isn’t something everyday Westerners are particularly adept at, it wasn’t too difficult for the media to paint the picture: 1) drowned toddler was a refugee, 2) there’s a refugee crisis thanks largely to a war going on in a place called Syria which isn’t on Mars but is in fact in the Middle East, 3) this place called Syria is where ISIS is, 4) the Russians are there too. It would be difficult to come up with a narrative more conducive to rallying public support for an invasion if you were trying. And indeed, maybe someone was trying, because as Reuters reports, the drowned child’s father might not have been a fleeing migrant after all, but rather a people smuggler and Aylan might have been on the boat not because his family intended to save their child from the horrific violence escalating daily in Syria, but rather because profiting off of other people’s misery was his father’s chosen profession and he often brought his family along for the ride. Reuters has the story, excerpts from which are presented below.
Via Reuters:
The father of drowned Syrian toddler Aylan Kurdi was working with smugglers and driving the flimsy boat that capsized trying to reach Greece, other passengers on board said, in an account that disputes the version he gave last week.
Ahmed Hadi Jawwad and his wife, Iraqis who lost their 11-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son in the crossing, told Reuters that Abdullah Kurdi panicked and accelerated when a wave hit the boat, raising questions about his claim that somebody else was driving the boat.
A third passenger confirmed their version of events, which Reuters could not independently verify.
"The story that (Aylan's father) told is untrue. I don't know what made him lie, maybe fear," Jawwad said in Baghdad at his in-laws' house on Friday. "He was the driver from the very beginning until the boat sank."
He said Kurdi swam to them and begged them to cover up his true role in the incident. His wife confirmed the details.
Jawwad said his point of contact with the smugglers was called Abu Hussein. "Abu Hussein told me that he (Kurdi) was the one who organized this trip," he said.
Amir Haider, 22, another Iraqi who said he was on the same boat, confirmed Jawwad's account and identified Kurdi as the driver. He told Reuters by telephone from Istanbul that he initially thought Kurdi was Turkish because he was not speaking, but later heard him talking to his wife in Syrian Arabic.
A photo of Aylan Kurdi's body in the surf off a popular Turkish holiday resort prompted sympathy and outrage at the perceived inaction of developed nations in helping thousands of refugees using dangerous sea-routes to reach Europe, many of whom have fled Syria's four-year civil war.
And more from The Daily Telegraph:
THE father of the three-year-old boy whose lifeless body washed up on a Turkish beach, rocking the whole world to its core, has been accused of being a people smuggler who captained the fateful voyage.
A woman who lost two of her three children on the vessel made the stunning claims to Network Ten via her cousin, who lives in Sydney, on Friday night.
It was claimed on Friday night that his father Abdullah was a people smuggler who captained the dodgy boat for its entire voyage, capsizing in heavy seas and killing at least 12 people.
Iraq-based Zainab Abbas, via her Sydney-based cousin Lara Tahseen, told Ten News she paid $10,000 for the voyage and Aylan’s father was in charge of the boat.
“He was a smuggler, yes, he was the one driving the boat,’’ she said.
She claimed a separate people smuggler to whom they paid the money had told them the captain was taking his own children on the voyage.
“He said ‘don’t worry, the captain of the boat, the driver, is going to bring his two kids and his wife,” she said.
The woman claimed the boat was travelling faster than its capabilities and had too many desperate asylum seekers on board.
The family of five was told there would only be six on the boat but when they got on there were 14.
“He was going crazy, like speed,” she said.
“He was the one driving the boat right from the start. When they set off five minutes in he was looking left and right, worried, then he was speeding. Even his wife was screaming at him to slow down,” she said.
Ms Tahseen said when the family arrived in Istanbul they phoned a number they were told was Mr Kurdi’s but another man answered.
They paid this man the money and he told them when they arrived at the island they were heading for, on which they would move to another boat to go to Greece, to phone him.
He and Mr Kurdi would then split the money, Ms Tahseen claimed. The trip was only supposed to take 15 minutes.
Now obviously, what happened to Aylan (and to an untold number of other refugees fleeing the Mid-East) is a tragedy and whether or not his father was the man driving the boat and profiting from the refugee crisis or was in fact a victim fleeing war like everyone else doesn’t change that (and in many ways, if the above account is true, Aylan's fate is actually even more tragic), but what is does change is the narrative being fed to the public.
It also seems - again, assuming the story outlined above is accurate - that it's possible Kurdi brought his family on the trip in order to make those paying him for the ride more confident in his ability to get them from Turkey to Greece safely. "If I was a people smuggler, why would I put my family in the same boat as the other people?" Kurdi asked MailOnline. That's a good question, but one (admittedly macabre) explanation is that it was a kind of people smuggling marketing ploy, something along the lines of this: "you know you can trust me because I have my own family on board." A less conspiratorial take on that theory would be that he did intend to get his family out of the Mid-East and so he simply overloaded the boat because the collective safety of the passangers was secondary to getting his family out of harm's way, but even if that's the case, the exact opposite ended up happening because by putting too many people on the boat, he inadvertently doomed Aylan, and besides, anyway you look at it, he was looking to make $5,000 off of the other passengers' desperation.
Coming full circle, the greatest tragedy here is that the entire episode will be used as an excuse to drop still more bombs on Syria and eventually to justify a ground invasion and because the public can't see past the various smokescreens being employed here, Americans and Europeans will end up tacitly accepting the patently ridiculous idea that the best way to stem the flow of refugees is to bomb the place from which the refugees are fleeing.
Of course the entire thing is made even more absurd by the verifiable fact that it was the West which destabilized Syria in the first place meaning Washington along with its European allies are now set to use a massive refugee crisis of their own making to create a still more massive refugee crisis by effectively doubling down on efforts to destabilize the country on the way to ousting Assad. And with that bolded passage in mind, we bring you what is quite possibly the most ironic statement to ever come from the mouth of a sitting US president:
Obama on Friday: "We are going to be engaging Russia to let them know that you can’t continue to double down on a strategy that’s doomed to failure in Syria."

but why has it taken so long to debunk .... the "you can't melt steel" over a burning bucket of kerosene bullshit .... you´ve believed in for 15 years, Brainchile ?
Right. 15 years ago that steel wouldn't melt. But it probably would today with all the help it would be getting from global warming.
You don't understand the principles of combustion. Aviation fuel burns at 800 Deg "C" with a sufficient oxygen supply. To increase the temperature fuel and air would have to be premixed to achieve complete combustion i.e. blue flame. The draught up the building you claim raised the flame temperature to melt steel does not make any sense. The air fuel mixture has to be closely controlled; too much air actually chills a flame, and leads to incomplete combustion.
A pool of fuel will burn from the surface down, there is no premixing of air and fuel which gives a yellow flame, this colour is caused by soot formation which had a tendency to reduce the flame temperature.
And lastly blast furnaces are highly insulated with refractory brick to retain as much heat as possible; an open structure like a building loses heat too readily to the surrounding atmosphere. At best the steel would have become plasticised causing deformation and buckling at best.
There were thousands of simultaneous and ever changing combustion events in that inferno .... so, a few of them might fit your white gloved analysis .... life is a messy affair .... not to mention the final bellow strokes of the final collapse .... on an already prepared holocaust ?
...and building 7? keep dodging fucker.
You are dodging .... by increasing the scope of the discussion .... when your ideas fail .... old socialist trick ?
The molten steel and perfect 45deg demolition angle cuts are only one piece of the puzzle.
You need to connect all the dots...
https://youtu.be/dWUzfJGmt5U
Although 5 hours may contain too many dots for you.
No one is paying me to debrief you conspiracy nuts .... but, I've never met a conspicacy I couldn't debunk .... I'll make brilliant observations from time to time .... you connect my dots ! LOL
"you connect my dots"
Well, you are dotty, I'll give you that.
And you have it backwards. It is the government that concocted the "9/11 Muslim terrorists with boxcutters financed by OBL" conspiracy, and the truthers are the one's debunking it. Without much difficulty I might add.
You are dodging... a relevant question... by appealing to ideological hate... regardless of ideology's irrelevance to the question.... when confronted with a problem you can't answer....old Gary Allen trick.
Not at all, your theory may be right for the towers (too fucking stupid to see when someone agrees with you-WOW), now what about building 7?
If you can't answer the question, just say so.
He won't answer because it doesn't fit his narrative.
The twin towers was an elaborate deception .... to conceal the real prize .... BUILDING 7 .... no, the real target was the Marriott .... someone staying there .... it wasn't completely destroyed .... so no one will ever suspect the truth ? LOL
I hope you burn alive, asshole.
You all deserve it.
the real target was the Marriott .... someone staying there ....
You're oh so close Moneta. What really happened was this:
A little Japanese couple opened up a Philadelphia Cheese Steak Sandwich stand near building 5. Business at the Afghani shish-k-bob stand was starting to hurt. So they called their friend Osama to do the hit. Check it out. The Afghani stand was conspicuously not open on 9/11. The Cheese Steak Sandwish stand is now dust.
The real terror in Europe is the population exchange terror and the crime and imperialism which is inflicted upon us while we are being demografically genocided - a terror that is committed by the same perpetrators who are inflicting false flag terror on us and are terrorizing the middle east as well.

Does a rapist care about his bastard children?
White people are stupid too.
Some do.
It also seems - again, assuming the story outlined above is accurate - that it's possible Kurdi brought his family on the trip in order to make those paying him for the ride more confident in his ability to get them from Turkey to Greece safely.
The boat had 14 people. Five of them were him and his family. People paying $10,000 expected 6 people but found 14.
So he can get about $1,700 a head for this dangerous work. And he uses up $6,800 worth of resources so his family can joy ride with him ... and make those other 6 feel more confident?
We need new writers. The shark is jumping the Fonz now!
The Fonz was Jewish. That explains everything.
Let's face it. If anyone had the time and the inclination they would have to re-writing virtually every news story given the amount of sheer fabrication that is printed in the first round.
And yet last week when I commented on this story as being suspect a couple of readers had the temerity of down voting me without explanation.
At least I can now explain their down votes.....they are idiots.
This doesn't smell right either. Somebody had to drive the boat. We can call that person a "people smuggler." What professional smuggler brings his wife and very young children on a run? Nobody, that's who. So maybe this guy was a refugee bringing his family, and also worked a deal to drive the boat? Maybe it was his boat and he let other people come along? The whole story doesn't make sense.
This has turned into one of the many stories that are so obviously being used for propaganda by all sides that they've become meaningless in every way.
Take your child to work day MENA style? Honey, you never spend any time with me and the kids...
" "We are going to be engaging Russia to let them know that you can’t continue to double down on a strategy that’s doomed to failure in Syria."
huh?
Look at the morons your electing ameriKa.
But hey, if we just arm a few more moderate rebels then Assad is gone for sure.
Parent takes a child on an unsafe boat - not guilty, because brown skin.
EU doesn't magically fish out all illegals who try to sneak past it's borders - guilty, because white skin.
I thought Canada was being blamed: all sorts of skin colours there; though for the next 7 months or so everyone is mostly blue.
Fuck that Abdullah asshole. Him and his bitch sister in Vancouver lied. She did not apply for Abdullah to come to Canada, she applied for her other brother. And the bitch has no money anyways. She's a god damn hairdresser in Vancouver. Like we need more hairdressers.
Cultural suicide accepting these refugees into your country.
Just like here in America, huh?
WHEN doesn't the socialist jew bankster cartel get their way?
No it's not people have moved around the planet forever. Don't exaggerate these numbers are small relative to population size on the host country.
In the Pope's new global religion, there is no evil.
Only violations against the state (evil men).
Your nation is under God's judgment.
When there is no evil, neither is there any good.
Back to natural law then.
I'm fine with that.
Media meme: it's all very confusing but we must not abandon democracy and must bomb them, bomb them, bomb them.
intended message already out
A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on
Well I was born in a semi-capitalist country. Now it has gone full blown socialist with communism health care. There is no country for me to run to. Syrians need to stay in their country and solve their own problems.
That's exactly how I feel .... about Obamamerica .... Hype and Strange ?
Obama on Friday: "We are going to be engaging Russia to let them know that you can’t continue to double down on a strategy that’s doomed to failure in Syria."
And just what kind of quote would one expect from a hired ass puppet/psychopath that has systematically bankrupted and destabilized his own Country with illegal immigrantion after he signed into law in December 2011 that the State(s) have no jurisdiction and authority to protect it's taxpayers in the event he declares "war" on his own people and that he can incarcerate and kill at random because the NDAA now gives him the authority without the need for ratification and a constitutional Congress -with the tacit approval of the American people allowing him to serve a second term after Libya,Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Ukraine?!!!...
Mostly, when we go to a new page .... there is a little overlap of comments .... for continuity .... this time they didn't do it ..... to protect "withglee" .... from the anal reaming I gave him on the last page ?
from the anal reaming I gave him on the last page ?
I display the max (300) comments per page. Thus, I don't think I missed the anal reaming. I, and my proctologist thank you. You might try bumping your comments per page ... for continuity.
The terror of 9/11 was complete .... even if the towers didn't collapse .... was the thinking "we better have a back up plan in case the planes don't collapse the towers" .... kind of a "grassy knoll" redundancy .... a la conspiracy fucks ?
WHY shouldn't there be white countries anymore?
I love being white. My name is Robert O'Carlos, I'm white, Irish. They only assumed I was brown.

No the propaganda did not start with boy or Syria or 14 years ago.... "Western Civilization current lifecycle falling?" Government just keeping themselves in power where information has suprassed them. Is government PNAC, CFR. politicians, Bankers happy with usury to keep themselves feed?

The aviation fuel spilled and burnt off in the first minutes of the inferno .... 99% of the combustibles .... were plastic carpets and such .... hundreds of tons .... the dry wall was the limestone .... better than a blast furnace .... because of the convenient structural array of of the ingredients !
Thankfully zh finally caught up to reality, as I was pointing this out on zh 4 to 5 days ago.
(and got reds from zh's moron-osphere for daring to point it out)
Whether that speculation is correct, or not, the basic fact remains he was such a genius that he didn't know what a life jacket was, or why they might be a good idea for his family.
Here more stuff the MSM does not tell you about this situation. Because it does not fit the narrative that these are refugees and not migrants. It is a population strategy.

Do you know how dumb you appear? Where your mum and dad sister and brother FFS?
And one other thing. It appears many of the small minority of women and children are there as a sympathy prop - for the purposes of the men.
I have now seen countless instances on TV footage of 'refugees' crowding around a camera and males are doing things like throwing a woman holding a child VIOLENTLY to the ground, or even on railway tracks, simply so they'll be screaming and crying for the camera.
That is what those refugees are really doing, and the treacherous lying western media outlets are loving it, and doing absolutely nothing about exposing their behavior.
The bleeding heart media are a pack of scum hypocrites who are then using the footage, and mostly editing out the violent actions of the men, that causes the tears and screaming of the children and mothers, but sometimes the media editors leave enough of it in for continuity, and you can see what the males are actually doing to them.
Watch closely, check the footage, the whole desperation melodrama is being staged and our wonderful 'western' media are letting them do it. I suspect a lot of the media crews doing this stuff are Muslim or ME ethnic/tribals as well.
I have driven down the region several times and the people I see on the road are mostly men. There are some families with children and all but they are a minority. Back in June I already saw droves of them cycling through Macedonia and knew this would become a huge problem in a couple of weeks/months because our overlords in Brussels do nothing to tackle the problem by taking out the smugglers. This will become a huge problem in the future cause the migrants will find out that the roads in Europe are not paved with gold. They will get 'dissatisfied' and will make demands on how the rest of Europe needs to adapt to their way of living and their religion.
I remember a conversation we had last year Joe, where you said you were stationed in Bosnia, so I guess you've seen a lot of this up close. Thanks for your views, I concur with your assessment but it leaves out the reactionary movements that will uncork within every European city, from here. These illegal entrants to Europe, for they are certainly not genuine refugees (most of them are not even from Syria or areas of recent active combat) will find more than empty pockets, they're going to wish they stayed home, in a safer more welcoming location.
But I think we can rely on the ethnic fifth column that preceded them to assist their illegal entry, and help them stay anyway. And I'm quite certain we can rely on trenchantly hypocritical EU Parliamentarians to remain spineless mincing dead wood.
Naturally the body of EU people itself, will 'emerge' the solution is most needs, and desires, and give no heed to politicians an laws, either, from here. Which may make your life a little bit more interesting than you'd like, I expect.
And just the sort of environment that engenders geopolitical opportunism to flourish, on the margins too, as it has been. What a mess. Frankly I think EU democracy is an even greater failure than German multiculturalism (echoes of the 1930s failure of german democracy in fact).
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/oct/17/angela-merkel-german-multic...
I wonder how she reconciles that? Well she's a pure pragmatist of course, even though she claims to believe in a "Europe of Principles". Oh really?
I'd love to have a beer with you sometime Joe, I don't drink beer these days but I'd make an exception and get quite fucked-up in that event - cheers. ;-)

Women and children as "sympathy props"? Yes, it's standard behavior all across the Muslim internet. The most amazing one I've seen is the guy that walks out of the ground zero of a missle strike (maybe drone related) with half of the body of a relative and shoves it at the camera. And only seconds after the blast. Wish I could un-see that.
"but rather because profiting off of other people’s misery was his father’s chosen profession and he often brought his family along for the ride. "
Seriously, why should that be a problem? It's not like he was stealing from them. The refugees valued his service. The boy aside, both sides of the transaction benefited.
May 12, 1996, in a discussion of Iraq sanctions:
Leslie Stahl: "We have heard that half a million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?"
Madeleine Albright: "We think the price is worth it."
Yeah but back then brown people were 50 cents a pound down at the Home Depot. These days they're way too expensive.
I can show you 10 pictures of butchered Palestinian children?
Evil Jew media wont publish.
Please show us .... I enjoy beheadings and other Muslim butchery ?
Every day, one of you assholes shows up. You have this certain opinion, that is only shared by a small sect of people.
We are on to you. NO ONE thinks like that, unless they are paid to. It is COMMON knowledge that governments around the world pay people to sit in cubicles and reiterate the "official story", spread lies, and attempt to sway opinion. Wanna know how we KNOW? You make 12 posts that consistently attempt to tear down common sense. The only people that do that are ones that are being payed to do so. If not, if by some strange chance you are just a guy sitting at home sharing his opinion, then I weep for the waste that your life has become.
Props for securing some employment, but ask yourself, is it worth it? Is the damage you are doing to people really worth it?
Satanists run the Big 3 religions in the wast.
So true, it has to be said twice.
Satanists run the Big 3 religions in the wast.

You are "on" to what you imagine. You have no idea who that "you" behind the screen name is.

If he can get to the UK he will have a whole bunch of left wing lawyers (a.k.a. assholes) pleading poverty, difficult childhood and a load of other PC crap all paid for by an abomination called legal aid.
With a last name like Kurdi .... and being from Kobane (Kurdish hold out) .... you better not stick around Turkey .... too long ?
THE father of the three-year-old boy whose lifeless body washed up on a Turkish beach, rocking the whole world to its core, has been accused of being a people smuggler who captained the fateful voyage.
According to UNICEF 20-25k children die every day for a number of reasons. Disease, War, Hunger, lack of or bad water.
It appears that the world isn't rocked to its core by these numbers but a good photo opp. by a media that wants to get its narrative across. Que in the sing songy bimbo (male or female) teleprompter reader telling me how I should feel about the death of one boy, were it not for the photo the only people who would care would be his family.
One death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic. - Stalin
Who knows what's true and what's fake anymore...
We can only go with our guts and that doesn't match their version, almost ever.
Also what becomes clear in all of this, is that nothing is as it appears. That's why you really do need to dissect every media story that is being give 24/7 coverage. Something is happening that they want you to believe, disbelieve, or keep you distracted when they are showing it continuously.
NPR is a super bad propaganda unit. I notice that they will put the most controversial info on during RUSH HOUR, when they know people are in their cars and listening to radio.
NPR is continuously playing the "immigration" crisis and using this orchestrated crisis as a means to spread their agendas during Rush Hour and beyond. Seriously, before I turn my radio on in my car, while driving to work, I guess what they will be talking about, and lately it's ALWAYS about the refugee crisis or other immigration news.
Notice how NPR has lessened their coverage on Gays/Lesbian information since the Supreme Court passed the same sex marriage law. The CONTINUOUS propaganda over and over and over and over again, will eventually dilute most human minds and bring them into compliance.
As always, listen to Barbara Lerner Spectre spill the beans on "diversity and multiculturalism" for Europe...on youtube. That's another interesting factor in this.
Sheikh Tamim becomes the youngest leader in the region at a
time when Qatar’s power has been ascendant.
To protect its interests in a turbulent region, Qatar has armed

Bashar Al Assad, and it continued to support Egypt through its
tumultuous change of government in July.
Now it is straight up genocide against the Kurds.
or maybe he wanted to start a new life....without a wife and children
Heard he was looking for a new Hygenist (Dental that is). They don't worry much about general hygene. Kinda like the regular CAIR dirty Sanchez pride day paraders @ ZHemmirhoiders.
The poor fuck had drugs strapped within. 20/20 hindsight would of used him as a homosexual child sexual trafficking ring.

Just the other day there was a thread discussing that gold was a good thing to have to allow you to pay a ship captain to get you out of a dictatorial America.
The cognitive dissonance is astounding.
Yeah but we're rich, and not common/smelly people! /sarc
The Jews shoved gold coins up there ass when crossing Nazi Germany. What is your point?
Well, the kid died doing what he loved.
At least. That's what they all say.

Which hand do you Left-Handers use when pleasuring your fellow Fellow? Just curious. Not really
A sex toy called "The Howard Roark." That way they don't get their hands dirty, and nobody remembers what happened.
Not a joke BTW. They are social sicko's. Documents are ready to fire off. There is no ransom notice. Time to expose these individuals. Watch more apology sound bits on Corporate Mainstream TV.
"but that would likely mean discovering all manner of really inconvenient and often disturbing things and so, at the end of the day, willful ignorance allows everyone to perpetuate the myth that everything is fine."
I wish I had written that! It sums up American willfull ignorance. It is ungforgiveable to be Willfully Ignorant if you are an American. Why do I say that! Because no nation other than the USA sticks it's nose into every other people and nation on earth. US embassies basically are shadow governments for every nation they operate in. If the USA does not get it's way nicely, by bribery and blackmail, then they send in secret agents and billions of dollars to subvert the nation. If that fails, we inavde. Americans make this possible by their taxes and willfull desire to rull the world. So NO, ignorance is no excuse here. Americans refuse to accept responsibility for their government. But sit aside and watch CNN tell them who the bad guys are. It's fucking bullshit that Americans can claim innocence! They are not innocent.
Are you still struggling with the concept of leadership?
No, it's not what you apparently think leadership means.
Let me break it down for you:
We are animals, we have hierarchical animal power structures in society, and at the top is the most capable wolf in a wolf pack, and that wolf does not ask nicely to be the leader or to exhibit its leadership, and you may really hate its leadership, but just try doing something about it and see what happens.
Now do you get how this works and relates to geopolitics?
You swear, you seem to get dippier and more petty in viewpoint every month Jack.
I've noticed you for less than a week. You're one of two things: mockingbird or excrement. I guess when you show up on my shoe we'll finally understand confirmation bias.
If your level of banal laughable commentary and bullshit over the past 24 hours, and inability to construct any sort of rational argument on topics you comment on are a gauge to your attenuated mental capacity, I seriously doubt your shoes have shoe laces, as you'd be tripping over a lot and exacerbating your injury. :D
That's more like it
He's a shill that is trying to sell "Stop Worrying and Love The Bomb" philosophy.
In order to be successful, he pretends to be objective...from time to time.
I can see both side of this argument. Both have valid points that deserve debate. And what have you offered?
I wager the scum in the room is the person who can't or won't engage in rational debate from which a larger audience may benefit. Your sort of dipshit response is why ZH is going (gone) to hell.
"the most capable wolf" / Maybe the pack is fearfully yearning for a fellow wolf who is willing to sacrifice his life for his community. Ofcourse after the "rebel" is killed the leader is twice as pissed.

History will not be kind to America or the wilfully ignorant. The American people are culpable for their governments actions, it will not end well for a the narcissist American public, our sense of entitlement and exceptionalism is our worst folly.
Is Cameron taking your phonecalls?
Hmm...I thought so.
Guess he values your opinion as much as Obama values mine.
But keep believing you are responsible for what your govt. does and wear that hairshirt with pride.
BTW: Have you straightened things out in Rotherham yet?
Isn't just like a Muttslum and their slimy sympathizers to project their filth onto the Jew? Been doing it since 638 AD.
Maybe a Left-Hander can describe a typical toilet for the ignorant Infidel. Is it wide enough for a burqa clad boy/girl to do 1 and 2 simultaneously?
there's a simpler explanation: the smugglers never board the boat themselves, they use someone onboard to drive this 500$ boats.
They probably offered him a discount "drive the boat and get your kids for free"...
No one lies more than a Muslim, especially it's Koranically sanctioned lying to the Infidel. Someday medieval will be redefined by the pile of Mohammedans used to build the real bridge to nowhere.
The migrant Caliphate...and of course the impotent russian boys are hoping for the Mohammedan to even the playing field against the West. Jews promoting this? Eff off you demographically dead russian, it is NeoCommunist agitprop, which is Sgt Putin's dungeon legacy.
I think Siberia could use some new settlers there. The old occupants of a lot of those towns died off and they could use an economic revival in that area. There used to be plenty of mining and logging jobs up there in the good old Stalin days.
Putin & Co. just need to get over some of their Muslim xenophobia and it's a win/win proposition. A worse case scenario would be to tell the refugees they're taking a longer route to Germany.
Halal mooseburger stands would fill the place like Starbucks in a while.
Globe and Mail published the Alan's picture from the get go. I cried about that kid. I was angry with the Canadian govt based on the relative in Vacouver and her account. She is a God damn liar. Alan's father is a God damn liar. I've washed my hands of his story.
If you read Zero Hedge then you know that the Establishment Media is the propaganda arm of the Powers That Be. You were foolish to believe a story that was so obviously hyped. They can only dupe those who are willing to be dupes.
Reuters reported that the father disputes that, saying why would he have own child on board if he was a people smuggler.
If I was a smuggler I'd give someone like Abdullah a discount if he would take the risk and drive the boat. That still makes Abdullah responsible though.
All I know is that young woman with the white cat in a Syrian war zone is real. I hope she made it out safely. She's good looking and maybe she could be in pictures if she made it safely to Hollywood.
Moment of silence for the little boy though. What a tragedy.
I'm sure the pedophiles in Brussels are anxiously looking forward to all the new young boys coming in
His name was Alan, you stupid fucks!
Actually, his name was Aylan; another media lie to get sympathy. This guy never applied for refuge in Canada.
This is most upsetting. I could not imagine that somebody could be such an asshole that they would move a dead little boy to take a more sympathetic picture. Fuck everything! I'm never believing the news again.
Yeah. That is pretty much about as low as it gets.
If that is true, then this is karma.
I consider Pepe Escobar and excellent source. Here's what he says about the refugees.
"Thus the current flood of refugees released from Turkish "holding camps" on their way to Europe — by direct orders from Ankara, with a little encouragement from Washington.
"The plight of the refugees would then become the perfect excuse to precipitate a new R2P (responsibility to protect) war; Libya remixed, with fighting ISIS/ISIL/Daesh — the fake "Caliphate" — barely disguising the real agenda (which Washington shares with Ankara, Riyadh and Doha, not to mention London and Paris): regime change in Damascus."
We've entered another era with madmen at the centers of power. Only this time, the heros of WWII are now the monsters.
Heroes are those who write the history books. Especially when one of them is Sir Winston Churchill, the most highly-paid war correspondent in pre-war Britain.
I had no idea that Papa Doc Barack, ErDogan, and Angela were @ Normany. Whoda thunk?
Here's someone that the typical ZH Left-Hander, Goebbels-Mohammedan, PutinHasbaraTrinia can get behind. I'm sure Corbyn will become a much quoted source here to supplement their agitprop.

I don't understand why the Europeans are still called Washington's "allies". "Vassals" is the correct term.
I think this latest bit of "news?" needs to be vetted throughly before we rush to judgements. My first question is why would a smuggler actually be aboard a rubber boat with the possibility of being arrested, and in Turkey or in Greece? The destination is the Greek Island of Lesbos which is somewhere between five and ten miles away and visible to the naked eye. I think I will wait for a more definitive report, not that it matters much as fleeign a hell hole is just that no matter who is trading in fear and the escape from fear of being arbitrarily killed.
How many fell for this. Brought to you by Pallywood. THe makers of sobbing mother and green helmet guy.
This fiasco gets worse. Accoding to Sputnik News, ISIS found a way to make up for their shortfall in oil revenue. They've been terrorizing locals out of their homes so they on make money on human trafficking.

Much like every single 'terrorist' organization invented in the past 75 years, ISIS is CIA.
USG + EU trolls fucked the ME - its Islam payback, muthafuckas
And who benefits from an empty Syria, Iraq, and neutered Iran?
