Watching Julian Assange interview Moazzam Begg makes me wonder. I gave up watching TV years ago, so I can't speak for what is happening currently on the major television networks, but do interviews with this kind of integrity of ex-Guantanamo inmates take place in the mainstream media, or do we have to turn to "gatekeeper" Assange in order to find them?

"because I’m not a Muslim scholar, you know… I have disagreements with, you know, the way Al-Qaeda uses its tactics around the world."

The problem with this interview is that they re-enforce the myth of Al-Qaeda??

Sorry the he does go on to mention that it is a great myth... and more like and an umbrella label to put everything under..

however TBH Julian does continue to push the myth of 9/11 not questioning anything about it and just accusing Bin Laden - definately a gatekeeper in my opinion.

Something to keep in mind is that we are all at different levels of brainwashing and have varying levels of clarity in different areas. We can be fooled to a certain degree on one subject and see through the deception on another. I know that Andy, Zook, and myself, as well as some other forum members that I personally know, have all been seriously accused of being gatekeepers. In each case, I am fairly certain that the accusation was completely unwarranted. I could see why the gatekeeper conclusion was reached, but it was simply an inaccurate conclusion. That showed me the ease and the danger of jumping to conclusions due to incomplete information. And information is almost always incomplete. I strongly suspect Assange is not a gatekeeper, despite some appearances that give the impression that he must be one.

Wrong topic TS, UncleZook started a topic more appropriate for this type of discussion called "The Julian Assange Wikileaks Scam ... EXPOSED"

Here is another report on the up-coming elections in Venezuela, where Chavez is likely to be re-elected by overwhelming popular support. The sociopaths in Washington are clearly not amused.

I was thinking we might get Zook to stamp the author of that report, Stephen Lendman, as a gatekeeper. As the list of gatekeepers grows longer, we might eventually learn who isn't feeding us propaganda by a process of elimination.

I'm pretty sure Zook realizes the Council on Foreign Relations is an organization full of first-order gatekeepers, so it will be interesting to see how Mr. Lendman fares against the powerful discernment wielded by the Zook!

Anthropologist/Anarchist David Graeber was one of the main people interviewed by Julian Assange in E7.

Here's another interview taken in Berlin on 30 May 2012, on the Occupy movement and social movements, with a focus on state and police repression measures and the use of undercover officers. He mentions the scandalous case of Mark Kennedy, as well as how big a threat social movements are to neoliberalism at this current historical moment. These are short random clips from the interview, which was conducted for an upcoming film about people spied upon by undercover police.

Interesting how this information, critical for understanding money and debt, isn't taught in school. Then again, given the current scam of continual tuition increases and pervasive educational loans, it would be by design, wouldn't it.
