"I bring the sword" - booya quoting Jesus Christ
Has anyone else read Naomi Klein's new work ? I find it interesting in the wake of the man killed in England by Polonium. What was it that he was saying about Putin that would have perhaps made him a target of the KGB, assuming it was they who killed him ? One accusation he made was that Putin had himself caused to be blown up an occupied apartment building in order to pin it on Chechnyan rebels and have a "reason" to begin a campaign against them. That he had ordered it done. Of course, no one officially knows ( or publicly admits ) for sure why he was killed, ......or whether there was more to 9/11 then we are told.
I saw a piece on the net that said that Naomi got her facts wrong about the privatization of some condos in New Orleans. Whether that's true or not, I would ask that you look at the broad concept of what she is saying vs. saying "if she got this one detail wrong, then we can safely ignore the rest of her message as being unreliable" ....or "disingenuous" etc.
