The official Soviet propaganda maintained for 50 years that there had been no famine in the Ukraine under Stalin. Does that prove Dave's point?

Whether or not you believe in a "Jewish-Controlled Media", we still (so far) have the freedom of speech in this country. That means that we--unlike folks who live under the Iranian regime----are free to call out lies when we see them. When our media (Jewish-controlled, or not) puts out a false story, or a story line with an agenda behind it (it happens sometimes!), free people--competing journalists, bloggers, commenters like you and me---will hold it up to scrutiny and decide for themselves what the truth is.

(The fact that we are having this conversation proves my point.)

When people have freedom of speech and wide access to information, they will keep the media --and by extension, the government-- as honest as is humanly possible. The Iranian people enjoy neither freedom of speech nor wide access to information; and the Iranian media is one and the same with the Iranian government.

So, no, I don't believe that Ahmadinejad doesn't want to harm Jews, just because the state-run media says he doesn't.

The Patriot Post is a highly acclaimed advocate of Essential Liberty, the restoration of constitutional limits on government and the judiciary, and the promotion of free enterprise, national defense and traditional American values. We believe, as did our Founders, that Essential Liberty must be defended at any cost. "They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." (Ben Franklin) · "A Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever." (John Adams) · "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." (Thomas Jefferson) · "If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace." (Thomas Paine) · "It does not take a majority to prevail...but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men. ... If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, go from us in peace. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!" (Samuel Adams) · "Give me liberty or give me death!" (Patrick Henry) · "Our cause is noble; it is the cause of mankind!" (George Washington)
