Is there some way to get these alleged documents from any actual government agency or website? Or in any other official way whatsoever? FOIA? I guess the alternative is to just believe anything posted by anyone from anywhere. Some pdf's at some site. Not that Russia Today would ever skew anything, gee.
I'd really like some facts on this and "several sites seem to have it posted" doesn't cut it.


Yeah, the site that published them claims they are documents written for the public, but not released to the public. The only site I've found that actually tried to verify the documents has only gotten responses amounting to "never heard of it" from government sources. I'm not going to get worked up about pdfs posted anonymously on the internet.Though if someone could demonstrate that they are authentic it would be sort of interesting.

In defense of the comment you quote.
The pamphlets discussed in the video, of which I link to one of them, looks genuine.

The extra link I threw in IS questionable, which is why I threw it in.
I mentioned, "Several sites seem to have posted it" because when you go looking for the pamphlet discussed in the video, it's hard because this one keeps poping-up and I didn't want people to confuse it for the one in question. Removing that white elephant from the discussion, sort of speak.

We can trust 'Russia Today', right?
I mean..they are our friends, right?
Ole Putin is a good old boy, right?


seriously?
are you trolling us?
putin has as much to do with RT as kalid sheik mohammed has to do with al jazeera or obama with msnbc.
/facepalm....

look up agent provocateur and then look up how many instances that tactic has been used by law enforcement in the USA alone.

Al Jazeera continues to break journalistic ground and puts much of American media to shame. Similar things can be said of Russia Today.

Scahill's reporting is incredible and if he maintains this incisive and revelatory effort, his work will hold a place among the epitome of journalism.

Misinterpreted you on the Russia today thread, just read it again, sorry..


It's cool, most of my posts are meant to be misinterpreted.

I'm not advocating censorship or anything of the sort. Just saying that if you want an alternative news agency, RT isn't the best source out there due to their reactionary style.

I'm all about alternate news sources, but Russia Today always goes to the far extreme, which is often transparently propagandistic in its nature, much like the hyperbole on this one.

There was no 'threat', just the usual pro-business propaganda that is spewed out by, well, business men. This is hardly blackmailing or extortion on the White House.

Just about anyone can see that, too, as other sifters have quickly pointed out. Does it do you any favors to post news sources that are so quickly analyzed and debunked?

And people complain about Russia Today. CNN is a fucking joke.

Oh, its a Russia Propaganda Times story. Other wise known as RT. The P in invisible.
Its always along the line of.

CNN = A 7.3 earth quake hit eastern Russia today.
Faux News = A 7.3 earth quake hit eastern Russia today.
RT = A man in Boise Idaho said the U.S. sucked and the government would collapse.
Reuters = A 7.3 earth quake hit eastern Russia today.

And why the hell are they occupying Wall Street. Occupy something that would have more of an effect. Like Walmart's HQ.
