The Ukraine, Corrupted Journalism, and the Atlanticist Faith



The Ukraine, Corrupted Journalism, and the Atlanticist Faith

By Karel van WolferenAugust 14, 2014 • 4,000 Words
The European Union is not (anymore) guided by politicians with a grasp of history, a sober assessment of global reality, or simple common sense connected with the long term interests of what they are guiding. If any more evidence was needed, it has certainly been supplied by the sanctions they have agreed on last week aimed at punishing Russia.
One way to fathom their foolishness is to start with the media, since whatever understanding or concern these politicians may have personally they must be seen to be doing the right thing, which is taken care of by TV and newspapers.
