I checked out a few bits of the "World
Economic Forum" meeting in Davos, Switzerland and it is distressing. The
WEF is supposedly this elite group that promotes all these advanced ideas that
will save the world. Billionaires are in attendance so you can only imagine
what those "advanced" ideas would be.
In the morning on Euro News, I heard the
Finnish President, I can't remember her name, say repeatedly how important it
was to give Ukraine all the weapons it needs to win the war with Russia.
Crucial for Europe, she said, without saying why. No mention of the need for
negotiating a peace or of possible nuclear dangers if the war keeps going.
Then later in the day, I saw former CNN pundit
Brian Stelter interviewing Arthur Sulzberger, publisher of the New York Times,
in a discussion about controlling "disinformation." As they used to
say back in the '60s, can you dig it? Here was Stelter, who promoted the
totally wrong Trump-Russia collusion claims a few years ago talking with the
head of the Times, which also backed the same bogus claims, over and over, in
addition to censoring the explosive Hunter Biden laptop story prior to the 2020
election, blacking out the FBI's strongarming of social media in violation of
the First Amendment and running one-sided stories about the Ukraine War.
Disinformation is
right --- perpetrators are on full display in Davos. So much for the WEF.
