Link to Google's listing of stories on this... first, a thought on 'how to digest news'...
Obviously where I am, Google generates news items more relevant to Britain, hence The Times, The Guardian, BBC and so on being top of the page. NO Russia Today, Novosti, Pravda or any Russian source on this entire first page, which I find very odd for an event which took place in that country. But that's just Google...
Secondly, I scoured the list without clicking through to fuller details of the Nevsky Express crash between Moscow and St. Petersburg yesterday evening, and it was plain to see that all those aforementioned British news sources were pushing the word 'terrorism' to the forefront in their titles, whereas Gulf News, Xinhua and Al Jazeera were not, so much. Curious.
Fact is, the line, popular with executives and government officials, has been targeted before and it is being investigated as a bomb attack, which has killed at least 25 and injured close to 100 people. But I don't believe a word I read in the paper without thinking, especially not when it concerns Russia, terrorism and Chechen rebels.

I'm just waiting for the media to blame it all on russia not backing iran over the business with the nuclear refining plant, somehow this will all end up being blamed on muslims again. I'm not a follower of Islam but even I can see how they make a very handy scapegoat for anything and everything that happens around the world right now.

AntwortenLöschenNothing new, Pidge. The IRA were experts at it. So are our friends, the Islamic militants.
