Ambush....character assassination....emotional appeal for discredit....reflection of guilt and culpability....

"truth is treason in an empire of lies"

Oh my god, he has a problem because the rebels did not tamper with the bodies by leaving it where it was. Just imagine if they had moved the bodies? the same crowd would be screaming that the rebels have tampered with the evidence.

And where is his sympathy for the 100s of civilians killed in bombing by the illegitimate Kiev govt? He only has sympathy for the ones allegedly killed by Anti Kiev rebels. What a hack this man is.

LOL. The CNN douche doesn't ever know he's a propagandist or thinks his viewers are too stupid to see it, which probably is true.

Putin isn't saying anything because according to him it's better not to argue with "women"

[AngryCanadian]

Chris Cuomo is an idiot and he has shown an level of unprofessional display of journalism
On 10:12 you can clearer see that Chris was trying his hard to defend himself and CNN by trying to attack Peter by claiming that He Works for the Russian Government and as if Chris Cuomo is not different from other government reporters.


I actually laughed at when Chris stated to Peter that his Ukraine, yeah Probably staying at an fancy 5 star hotel in Kiev.

9:40 mark

CNN propagandist Chris Cuomo,

Why carry water for Russia when you're suppose to be a journalist?

Chris Cuomo lost the debate in the first minute, then spends the next 10 changing the subject and character assassination. What a douche bag, Cuomo should look in the mirror.

I would of ended with, "Go back to your CNN master Jeff Zucker and ask him what you should say next time when your propaganda fails and you lose the debate."

Then there is this "after the looss" Chris Cuomo bull$#@!:

Back in the studio(CNN), New Day's Chris Cuomo recounted the contentious interview he conducted with Russia Today anchor Peter Lavelle yesterday, in which the two traded accusations of water carrying and so forth. Cuomo said that the significant satellite delay prevented him from cutting off Lavelle's evasions, but added that Russia and its various media outlets had been very effective at countering the west's evidence with "misinformation." »

I had posted a very good discussion regarding the diversity in reporting as far as western media versus the rest of the world with Peter (the one in the op's vid) in the Media Malfeasance thread.

Aside - The fear porn that we're getting from mainstream seems to be running interference for some members in Congress to legislate occupation of U.S. military of many countries based solely off of spin and a dis/misinformation campaign...


Legislating the Way to World War 3?

The US Congress is doing its part to escalate the tensions with Russia over Ukraine and a host of other issues. In so doing, the legislative and executive branches of the US Government work hand in glove to further the US-NATO agenda in Eastern Europe.

The bill, propagandistically titled the “Russian Aggression Prevention Act of 2014,” (S.2277) was proposed by right wing Republican Senator Bob Corker, and has been cosponsored by a significant number of prominent Republicans in the Senate.





From the Bill -

S.2277 “Directs the President to: (1) implement a plan for increasing U.S. and NATO support for the armed forces of Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia, and other NATO member-states; and (2) direct the U.S. Permanent Representative to NATO to seek consideration for permanently basing NATO forces in such countries.”

S.2277 “Directs the President to submit a plan to Congress for accelerating NATO and European missile defense efforts.”

S.2277 “Directs the President to impose asset blocking and U.S. exclusion sanctions, if Russian armed forces have not withdrawn from Crimea within seven days after enactment of this Act” and “Directs the President to impose asset blocking and U.S. exclusion sanctions, if Russian armed forces have not withdrawn from the eastern border of Ukraine within seven days after enactment of this Act, or if agents of the Russian Federation do not cease actions to destabilize the control of the government of Ukraine over eastern Ukraine.”

S. 2277 “Directs DOD to assess the capabilities and needs of the Ukrainian armed forces. Authorizes the President, upon completion of such assessment, to provide specified military assistance to Ukraine” and “Expresses the sense of Congress that the President should: (1) provide Ukraine with information about Russian military and intelligence capabilities on Ukraine’s eastern border and within Ukraine’s territorial borders, including Crimea; and (2) ensure that such intelligence information is protected from further disclosure.”

Of course, the military angle doesn’t stop there, as S.2277 also “Provides major non-NATO ally status for Ukraine, Georgia, and Moldova (during the period in which each of such countries meets specified criteria) for purposes of the transfer or possible transfer of defense articles or defense services,” and “Directs the President to increase: (1) U.S. Armed Forces interactions with the armed forces of Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia; and (2) U.S and NATO security assistance to such states.”

Toward the end of S.2277 one finds a seemingly innocuous clause that, when read carefully, may just be one of the most important in the whole bill. S.2277 “Amends the Natural Gas Act to apply the expedited application and approval process for natural gas exports to World Trade Organization members,” and “Urges the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the Trade and Development Agency, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC), the World Bank Group, and the European Bank for Reconstruction to promote assistance to Ukraine, Georgia, and Moldova in order to exploit natural gas and oil reserves and to develop alternative energy sources.”

S.2277 “Directs the Secretary of State to: (1) strengthen democratic institutions, the independent media, and political and civil society organizations in countries of the former Soviet Union; and (2) increase educational and cultural exchanges with countries of the former Soviet Union” and “Directs the Broadcasting Board of Governors and the Voice of America (VOA) to provide Congress with a plan for increasing and maintaining through FY2017 the quantity of U.S.-funded Russian-language broadcasting into countries of the former Soviet Union, with priority for broadcasting into Ukraine, Georgia, and Moldova.”

S.2277 should come as no surprise to anyone who has been following US conduct in Ukraine since the outbreak of the conflict. It is an attempt to legislate a confrontation with Russia in order to further the imperial agenda of the US and NATO. It is not the first, and certainly not the last, attempt by the political establishment in the US of escalating the conflict. Those of us interested in peace, stability, and opposition to US imperialism are certainly not shocked. That being said, S.2277 should remind us all that Ukraine is not the whole conflict, it is merely a theater in the larger war being waged by Washington – a war for power, hegemony, and another century of control. However, resistance to these forces continues. Exposing dangerous legislation such as S.2277 is merely a start.
