RE: What Are “Assad Apologists”? Are They Like Those “Saddam Apologists” Of 2002?

in #syria7 years ago

Have the War Hawk Governments, their Military Industry Masters and Media Mouthpieces overestimated the level of fluoride in our water supply? I started writing that sentence tongue-in-cheek, but finished it believing it could well hold some truth. And that is a sign of just how far we’ve allowed ourselves to be driven down this preposterous path of propaganda.

If you’re not fully on-board for SIDE A then you must be on-board for SIDE B, and vice versa. WTF happened to the good old SIDELINE, the place where the majority used to stand, observing, thinking critically, and commenting as and when events began to unfold? If we stand there now, and do what the media were always supposed to do, we're castigated for doing the right thing.

Because we vociferously believe Assad to be Not Guilty in respect to Charge A, for those mentioned above to conclude that we therefore must believe him innocent on Charges B to Z, is the perfect example of a logical fallacy.

What interesting times we do enjoy!

Like the George W Bush statement that "Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists". Which more accurately should have been "If you are with us, you are with the terrorists" !
