Lucidity TV

Yesterday on one of the ubiquitous “debats” talk shows that are barely worthy of Jerry Springer, we find the usual fixation with the U.S.



Titled « Deadly crossing, » the show started off by mentioning hurricane Katrina in the same breathe as a « discussion » of the Minnesota bridge collapse. Not only did they seem to take incredible delight in the whole thing, one can’t imagine them even mentioning anyone else’s bad news along with the sadness it’s brought to individuals, let alone their own.

The only purpose there was for them to cover this subject at all is because of the popularity and joy so many in mainstream France take in detesting America. Nothing more.

Behold the baseline: France 2 in 2007 rehashing mendacious abuse of George Bush during 9-11 after 6 years. No new news, no nothing – just abuse.
[Program] Summary: On September 11, 2001, while terrorists hijacked airliners to take down the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, George W. Bush attended the class of a primary school of Sarasota, Florida. The images of the American President learning the news from one of his advisors and remaining inexplicably passive with a stupefied air, drew the notice of the world. But what really happened that day? Did Bush deliberately choose not to react “live”? How did he manage the crisis after that? The team of “One day/one destiny” asks witnesses closest to the President, key facts, and reconstituted the event.

OPINION: It’s a detailed log exemplary in its rigor and in the precision of its revelations but which, curiously, remains a little vain. With the image of a Bush obviously overwhelmed by the task...
Nothing but hatred.
