The Ukraine, Corrupted Journalism, and the Atlanticist Faith
By Karel van Wolferen • August 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.
