As you know, T, the principal news outlets throw a veil over the horrors of the wars and thereby sanitize it. The images and stories I platform here could, sadly, be much worse. I filter the material, not as much as the MSM do, so as to try to be honest without deterring visitors too much. The foreign correspondent Robert Fisk, with whom I occasionally correspond (he always replies from his home in Beirut) says that if the real war pictures were broadcast there would be fewer wars. He's right of course.
Thank you for this among all the horror ... and thank you for not turning from the truth.
