New York Times Moving into High Spin Denigrating Vladimir Putin on Syria
The specter of mass protest – of mob rule – seems to have haunted
Vladimir V. Putin throughout his political life, and that fear lies at
the heart of his belief in the primacy of state authority. It also
informs Russia’s forceful intervention in Syria. NYT, 4 October 2015.
The NYT – one of the key spin doctors in spreading falsehoods – knows
no limits in manipulating public opinion and demeaning Mr. Putin in
Machiavellian fashion with lies and untrue inferences.
What the paper describes in its article titled “In Putin’s Syria Intervention, Fear of a Weak Government Hand”, is
just about what the US has been doing in Syria since 2007 with
increasing intensity by training, funding and arming terrorists that
were given different names ranging from al Qaeda – to al-Nusra – ISIS/L-
Daesh… “moderate opposition” – you name it, to please the Washington
hegemon’s needs; and this with the objective of achieving ‘regime change’, meaning replacing President al-Assad with a Washington puppet.
