The Stories are Beginning to Exceed even the Gullibility of Americans

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

The past couple of days have seen interesting developments.  The US or Israel struck a Japanese ship with small rockets and tried to blame it on Iranian mines.  The Japanese ship owner put a halt to the false flag event.  He pointed out that the damage was above, not below the water line and that crew members observed objects approaching in the air. https://www.lewrockwell.com/2019/06/no_author/the-gulf-of-credibility/ 

In the New York Times, David Sanger, a generally unreliable reporter in my opinion, released what a person with my quarter century of experience in Washington would regard as sensitive national security information when he reported that Washington was puting malware into the Russian electrical grid.  Who leaked this sensitive national security information?  Why aren’t they being arrested and prosecuted for leaking to a reporter?  Why isn’t Sanger himself, like Julian Assange, arrested for trumped-up reasons?  It makes no sense to give to Russia the information in public disclosure as that allows Russia to find and eliminate the malware.  As it makes no sense, it raises the question whether Sanger’s story is correct or merely something handed to him by the NSA which wants to polish its image before it becomes a victim along with Brennan and Comey and Hillary in the attempted Russiagate frameup of President Trump.

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/15/us/politics/trump-cyber-russia-grid.html?ref=cta&nl=top-stories?campaign_id=61&instance_id=0&segment_id=14339&user_id=c57a8c2d498023b54c8a416a37b2bb8a&regi_id=21653813ries

Sanger’s story loses all credibility when he repeats the disproven allegation that “Russia’s Internet Research Agency [is] the group at the heart of the hacking during the 2016 election in the United States. It was one of four operations his so-called Russia Small Group organized around the midterm elections. Officials have talked publicly about those, though they have provided few details.”

Ray McGovern, William Binney and other retired intelligence professionals have proven conclusively that there was no hacking.  The information revealed by Wikileaks was a leak from inside the Democratic National Committee.

How is it possible that David Sanger doesn’t know this?  How can his New York Times editor not know this?

It doesn’t matter who hit the ships. The psychological effect is the same. Iran said if they can’t ship oil no one in the straights will be shipping oil. It seems to me that the slippery slide to war has begun.

Hope I am wrong.

“How is it possible that David Sanger doesn’t know this? How can his New York Times editor not know this?”
Well, he does know it. So I can think of two scenarios:
1. He’s intentionally lying on behalf of ?
2. Bad case of cognitive dissonance.

Could it be that Grey Lady writers and editors now set the standard for being biased and compromised hacks?

What is the name of the Asian female NY Times racist again – oh, yeah: Sarah Jeong.

PCR calls them presstitutes for very good reason.

FAR from his most thorough article, near as I remember, but it fills the gap, right? And that’s fine; don’t mean to criticize EXCEPT that it does not actually address the TITLE of the article. He lost me when he started talking about the NY reporter rather than ever’day folk who be waking up to the head-trips and mind-games the US.gov be playin’ on ever’body. . . . BUT hey, he may not actually know any ever’day folk who are waking up, and that’s cool . . . just don’t write an article about it or us ever’day folk be inclined to doubt ever’word you say, Mister PCR . . . just sayin’.

More lies more false flags more drum beats of war …. blah blah
As the circle jerk of Wall Street to K-Street To Capitol Street scurry about like cats covering up shit remember the media of news/entertainment are selling average Americans out being the narrative control of the circle jerk millionaires club .
You and I and our children are not in that club we just continue to be the death dismemberment bankrupted left holding the bag waving the flag blah blah …
Fly your flag inverted show you mean it , our nation is in real peril from the enemy within , many who walk the halls of congress !
It’s “PROBING TIME” and Nuremberg style justice !

PCR underestimates the gullibility of the average American, which is a feature of a high trust society. This genetic wiring allowed Western cultures to thrive but also provides an obvious exploit for malevolent actors.

Conclusion:
The deep state stepped in deep shit when they tried to disrupt/damage the campaign, during the last election cycle. Their lame attempts have now been documented and they are running for cover.

Instead of waiting for the scales of justice to be applied, they would rather false flag us into another war, as this would completely change the dynamics in Washington news/propaganda cycle, and the public would no longer pay attention to Attny Gen Barr and his attempt to put the screws to the cabal of Obama admin lackeys.
