Azov nazis have trained and inspired tens of thousands of white supremacists

Time magazine made that claim in January 2021. Far from being a conduit for Russian disinformation, Time is as American as apple pie. It has to be said that CBC and the Globe & Mail have denazified Ukraine a lot quicker than Putin with his “Special Military Operation!” This is especially rich given how hard these pillars of our free press worked to connect the truckers’ protest to white supremacy, on the strength of a single swastika scrawled on a flag in magic marker. Not a month later they’re urging Canada to stand with guys who have adorned their bodies with swastika tattoos, and stand with them we have, to the tune of almost $2 billions thus far! Meanwhile, the bamboozlement of the taxpayers in the “donor” nations proceeds at warp speed. The great Zelensky is in reality little more than a ventriloquist’s dummy sitting on Uncle Sam’s lap, but our media treat him as some kind of superhuman oracle. He should be focused on saving the lives of his people - that used to be considered a leader’s number one priority. Instead, he laps up the adulation and makes ever more fanciful demands for newer and bigger weapons, which the Americans and their NATO poodles are happy to oblige. Every day this war goes on, hundreds more Ukrainians become casualties. This does not prevent the CBC from persisting in the fantasy that a glorious Ukrainian victory is just around the next corner, or perhaps the one after that. Rosemary Barton had both Canada’s ambassador to the UN Bob Rae and former US ambassador to NATO Kurt Volker on her show today, and sure enough, they both talk like all Ukraine needs is a little time and a few tens of billions more in debt for the latest hardware from American arms manufacturers. Nonsense. If the first $50 billions didn’t turn the tide, the next $100 won’t make any difference either, other than to Lockheed’s and Raytheon’s bottom line. If the CBC was in the business of journalism, they’d have some hard questions instead of blithely spreading US/NATO propaganda. There are signs that the magnitude of the disaster engulfing Ukraine is beginning to overtake the narrative CBC has been pushing for three months. Here is Kim Iversen of The Hill taking “piss-poor journalism” to task for failing in what should be job one - to inform us what’s actually going on. I couldn’t agree more. We deserve more from CBC News… like news, instead of US/NATO propaganda.

Mario Monti: most important man in the world

Actually, when Time magazine put him on their cover, he was only the "most important man in Europe".

Well, if this blog had a cover, we'd fix that caption. Obviously an oversight by the folks at Time.

So why is this Goldman Sachs advisor and un-elected Prime Minister of Italy the "most important man in Europe/the world?

Damned if I know. Seems to have something to do with his links to Goldman Sachs.

After all, they're the mega-bullies who've engineered the current economic crisis, and they're also profiting most handsomely from it. I shouldn't say Monti was not elected. Goldman Sachs elected him to be the democratically elected leader of Italy.

Getting their boy on the cover of Time must be something of a coup.

But I can see why Berlusconi had to go. His insatiable appetite for teen tarts was becoming a bit of an embarrassment.

So now Mario has his big test in front of him. He has to tame those commie-infected Italian labor unions. You know the ones. All about a living wage and paid holidays and the usual smorgasbord of union demands.

Enough of that!
