“Entendre ce soir, dans ce débat sur Bolloré, qu’il est plus dangereux que Murdoch, l’homme derrière Fox News et dont il s’est inspiré pour créer CNews, fait froid dans le dos.

TV, radio, livres, presse : tout ce qu’il rachète est au service d’une propagande d’extrême droite.”

“Il n’y a pas de commune mesure entre une politique éditoriale et un calendrier électoral. Sacrifier un catalogue – cent vingt ans d’histoire littéraire, chez Grasset, au passage – à des calculs politiques, c’est trahir la mission même de notre métier.”

Gallagher Fenwick, que l'on retrouve très régulièrement sur LCI pour parler du conflit israélo-palestinien, annonce que depuis le 9 avril, il est la cible d’un raid numérique coordonné visant à le réduire au silence.

Une plainte est déposée.

Voici le communique de Maître Charles Morel :

Effectivement, Gallagher Fenwick est devenu la bête noire des pro-Trump et pro-Netanyahu. Et il a du boulot, car des propagandistes sur les chaînes d’info pour déverser de la propagande israélienne et américaine, on n’en manque pas. Encore hier soir, il en a contré une sur LCI.😁

Agora que a IA consegue fazer em segundos (ou poucos minutos) o trabalho que os analistas humanos demoravam dias ou meses a fazer, já ninguém é poupado à super-vigilância digital por ser considerado insignificante; ou por falta de tempo e paciência. Assustador…

One woman who called the State Department helpline looking for help said they told her to "stop ranting and raving" and hung up on her.

Another woman said they asked her how to spell Oman.

Thanks to Institut suédois for hosting this talk on soft power and my new book, with Eva Nguyen Binh, Gallagher Fenwick and Madeleine Sjöstedt.
No coincidence that both institutes were founded after world wars. Dangerous to forget that soft power and cultural diplomacy are peacekeeping measures.

An attack on Venezuela needed Congress. The bombing of Iran needed Congress. A state execution needs Congress. But Trump does not care and nobody stops him. Impeach? He got impeached twice. So? Besides, there is no congress to talk about. It's decoration at this point.

You have a point there, but Trump could not be there without the overwhelming support of congress, that enables the mad man. And it does not look like they bother with the standing of the US in the rest of the world. So, even if he shrivels tomorrow, the rest, Miller, Vance, Heritage, is still there

What would the US do when we decide the US bases are not needed? When Portugal,Spain,Italy,Germany Nederlands and others do not want to be involved with an erratic and non trustworthy "partner" with Russian interests in mind?

US F-35s have taken off from Lajes, Portugal, heading for the Middle East. They’re being accompanied by refuelling aircraft.

Pensei que os Americanos tinham abandonado a base das Lajes há anos. Afinal, estão a usá-la para as operações contra o Irão.
