FOR THOUGHT: We now have enough subscribers to support TvNewsLIES.org
if every subscriber to this mailing list donated $1
per month!* If we doubled the size of our list it would
only take $0.50 per week. Being financed to this point would mean
that TvNewsLIES could pay for its
overhead and any money over this amount could go towards hiring
reporters and expanding the new radio program. It would also allow
TvNewsLIES could repay my original
investment so that I can do things like pay the rent and buy food!
Just something to think about.

*TVNL Editor's Comments: What
Makes Black Ops Legal?*
b/Hello
police? I want to report a possible crime in the White House. Oh,
it's out of your jurisdiction? Who can I call to report this?
Nobody? Oh, this is America and there is no place to report crimes
committed by the President.b/
When
a US president orders the CIA to interfere with the internal
affairs of another nation, help fix foreign elections or
instigate, support or conduct political coups by way of military
takeovers or assassinations, is he breaking the law? Where is it
written in our Constitution that a president can use our tax money
to break international law or to mess with the political systems
of other nations, including nations with democratic rule?
I
wonder how the American people would feel about their nation if
they understood the history of US involvement in international
affairs. I wonder how they would feel if they knew that at one
time the US covertly supported most of the people or nations that
eventually end up being America's greatest enemies. From al
Qaeda's roots as the CIA trained forces in Afghanistan (supported
to defeat the Russians), to the Sha if Iran to the financial
support of Hitler and his war machine (thank George W. Bush's
grandfather for that one), America's conduct around the world,
using our tax money, is responsible for some pretty bad things.
But
the American people will never know what their nation actually
does. The media work hand in hand with our leaders to create
policy and decide what to tell the American people, if anything at
all. If you need proof of this just look at the upcoming super
secret Bilderberg meeting where world leaders meet with media
owners to discuss issues like Iran. Media owners should not be
meeting with policy makers, they should be reporting about policy
makers. Here you have a long history of the media meeting in
secret with leaders of the world to discuss global issues yet they
do not report about these meetings. What do you think they are
talking about? The media is there because they are in integral
part of the establishment, they are not the journalists who are
supposed to report to the people, not brain wash them.
So
now we read about covert operations designed to destabilize Iran,
and I ask...who asked me for my OK do spend my tax money this way.
I think the funniest thing about America is that Americans believe
that we live in a democracy. Yet when you ask Americans what part
they play in this so called democracy all they say is that they
vote. Well the few who vote say that. So once a year, or once
every two to four years people go into a little booth and press
some buttons or pop some chads from a punch card. That's it.
That's the average American's total involvement in this so called
democracy. And in the meantime our leaders do whatever the hell
they want to anyone they feel like messing with.
Democracy?
Give me a break. Think about it! Jesse Richard b Editor,
