"When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall — think of it, always." Mohandas Gandhi
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act. George Orwell

Reality Check....


The Truth Seeker - Who Really Runs The World? Part I
"The world is governed by far different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes” Benjamin Disraeli

THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA

“There is no such thing... as an independent press... There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job! We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes... they pull the strings and we dance. We are intellectual prostitutes.”

John Swinton, a chief of staff to the New York Times addressing the New York Press Club 1953.
