The case for striking Serbia... Afghanistan... Iraq... Libya... Syria... Venezuela... on and on. As the list grows, 'mainstream' media never respond with outrage and disgust, even when the oil motive is completely out in the open. On the contrary, if it keeps happening, it must be 'normal'.

As Jonathan Cook notes: "Peace" here is being used in exactly the same Orwellian sense as "ceasefire". This is not about ending Gazaâs suffering. It is about creating Big Brother-style narrative control, selling as "peace" the final eradication of Palestinian life in Gaza.

The Venezuelan president, NicolĂĄs Maduro, has not been 'captured' or 'arrested'; he has been kidnapped in an act of terrorism as part of an unprovoked war of aggression, 'the supreme war crime'. See how often the 'mainstream' media use the words 'kidnap' and 'terror':
