RT’s Anastasia Churkina investigates the impact religious beliefs taken to an extreme have had on American soldiers both in the warfare they participate in abroad, and in interacting their peers at home.
“The new job numbers are released.. and guess what? They’re lower than anticipated by “experts”. Plenty of United States propaganda against Russia by reporting nothing but negativity on the Olympic Games & the undeniable proof of the US State Department trying to “meddle” with Ukraine’s international affairs. It’s all Russia’s fault I say!”

On November 14, 2004, photographer Ashley Gilbertson followed two marines up the stairs of a mosque in Fallujah, Iraq. Working for The New York Times, Gilbertson was there for a photograph. Instead, he watched a young man die. It wasn’t the first death he’d seen, but it has haunted him ever since.
Award-winning correspondent Robert Fisk speaks out on the continuing conflict in the Middle East. From Israel and Palestine to the US involvement in Iraq, Fisk argues the media has failed to fulfill its duty as watchdog.
It was my honor to interview Gary Knight for my Trouble Shooter column with New York mag, Resource Magazine. His work has been a major influence on me for several years.

Noam Chomsky, Jeremy Scahill, and Amy Goodman discuss the book “Dirty Wars” (Full Speech and Discussion)
It’s the dirty little secret of the War on Terror: all bets are off, and almost anything goes. We have fundamentally changed the rules of the game and the rules of engagement. Today drone strikes, night raids, and U.S. government–condoned torture occur in corners across the globe, generating unprecedented civilian casualties. Investigative reporter Jeremy Scahill (author of BLACKWATER: The Rise of the World’s Most Mercenary Army) traces the rise of the Joint Special Operations Command, the most secret fighting force in U.S. history, exposing operations carried out by men who do not exist on paper and will never appear before Congress. No target is off-limits for the JSOC “kill list,” even a U.S. citizen. Director Richard Rowley takes us on a chilling ride with whistle-blower Scahill. Dirty Wars is a battle cry for the soul and conscience of an America few of us know exists.
I haven’t vetted this through any other sources yet, but I think it’s something well worth looking into:
