Why Are European Governments So Terrified of ‘Fake News’?

“The Swedish media giants involved in the anti-‘fake news’ project consist of Swedish State Television, Swedish State Radio, Bonnier, Schibsted Sverige, and NTM.

U.S. Now Bombing Assad Forces Openly In Syria

“The U.S. attack is completely illegal under such international law as exists. The U.N. charter is very clear on that.  One cannot help but reach the conclusion that something is dreadfully wrong in our system.
