TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: How is it that I can sit and watch George W. Bush and spot every lie that squeezes through his smirking smile, yet not a single media pundit, journalist or even politician can point out these obvious lies? Am I so smart? Am I really smarter than every single member of our broadcast media or am I just more honest? Now that I think about it…the answer is probably yes to both! How scary is that? Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

· BUSH WAS WARNED BY GENERALS NOT TO "STAY THE COURSE" - The Pentagon has admitted that the war on terror and the invasion and occupation of Iraq have increased support for al-Qaeda, made ordinary Muslims hate the US and caused a global backlash against America because of the "self-serving hypocrisy" of George W Bush's administration over the Middle East.

POLITICS : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news#politics

· George W. Bush, One Lying Son of a Bitch - By once again connecting the PNAC plan to invade Iraq with the events of 9/11, George W. Bush clearly proved that he is one lying son of a bitch.

What they won’t tell you are these two other hard truths:

9/11 News : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#911

· JOHN McMURTRY: WHY THE FACTS OF 9-11 ARE SUPPRESSED - Understanding the ruling group-mind behind the war without end: “In response to the extreme pressures of forcing reality to conform to manufactured delusions, the group and its members become increasingly submerged within a pre-conscious field of hysteria, denials and projections. In the case of 9-11 and the 9-11 Wars, the shadow subject of the ruling group-mind and its executive vector propelled two war criminal invasions of other societies and police-state laws across the world in under three years.” Insight into the “ruling group-mind” is reflected by David Rockefeller at a Bilderberg session in 1991: “A supernational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries.” Their program is being played out in Iraq against heroic resistance, while elsewhere in the empire the “regulating group-mind” (what Julian Jaynes calls the collective cognitive imperative; and Leon Festinger, in his manual on cognitive dissonance, calls cognition.) demands complicity with its fundamental assumptions, e.g. that 9-11 was an attack from the outside and that the Earth and its creatures are not sacred.

It is warfare by other, much safer means.

But the Post's numbers in their print version (in the body of the article) underestimates the "Out Now" position by more than 3 times.
