Media Blackout of Fidel Castro's Speech on the Implications of Nuclear War
by Michel Chossudovskylink
Global Research, October 21, 2010



On October 21st 2010, Global Research and Cuba Debate released a brief text and recorded video by Fidel Castro on the dangers of nuclear war.

From October 12 to 15, 2010, I had extensive and detailed discussions with Fidel Castro in Havana, pertaining to the dangers of nuclear war, the global economic crisis and the nature of the New World Order. These meetings resulted in a wide-ranging and fruitful interview that will be published shortly by Global Research and Cuba Debate.

A speech by Commander Fidel Castro against Nuclear War was recorded on October 15. (Complete text and video recording)

In this brief and powerful message, Fidel warned that the US and its allies are preparing to launch a nuclear war directed against Iran with devastating consequences:  
"The use of nuclear weapons in a new war would mean the end of humanity. ...
Today there is an imminent risk of war with the use of that kind of weapon and I don’t harbour the least doubt that an attack by the United States and Israel against the Islamic Republic of Iran would inevitably evolve towards a global nuclear conflict.
...
There would be “collateral damage”, as the American political and military leaders always affirm, to justify the deaths of innocent people.
In a nuclear war the “collateral damage” would be the life of all humanity.
Let us have the courage to proclaim that all nuclear or conventional weapons, everything that is used to make war, must disappear!" (Complete text and video recording)
While the Latin American media has provided coverage of Fidel's speech, there has been a total news blackout in the North American and European media. So far not a single major English language news media has acknowledged Fidel Castro's statement. Ironically, while the Reuters and Agence France Press dispatches have been published in Spanish and Portuguese, they have appeared in the original English and French.

There is certainly room for discussion. But not a word, not even denial from the corporate media on such an important subjet.

Meanwhile, coinciding with the release of Fidel's speech, there has been extensive coverage of the EU Parliament's "human rights" prize granted to Cuban dissident Guillermo Farinas. Almost every single major Western news media has published the same Associated Press report out of Havana.
Visibly, nuclear war is not front-page news. The overriding threat of war and destruction is overshadowed by a barrage of media disinformation.

The military agenda is presented as a humanitarian endeavor.

War criminals are rewarded for their contributions to World peace. The corporate media is complicit in its biased coverage, particularly with regard to the loss of life resulting from the US-NATO led war in the Middle East and Central Asia.
The lie prevails.
In an utterly twisted logic, war is presented as a means to preserving World Peace. 
While the "unspoken truth" conveyed in Fidel Castro's message to the World has been suppressed from the mainstream news chain, it will reach people around the World.

It will make "possible" what appears to be "impossible".

It is our hope that it will contribute in a meaningful way to reversing the course of history.

Storm triggers Taiwan landslides

Vehicles were swept off roads and people were stranded as the storm hit
Three people have been killed in Taiwan by a landslide triggered by Typhoon Megi, the powerful storm that struck the Philippines earlier this week.
Six more are missing after the torrent of mud buried a temple in the coastal town of Suao.
Teams are also searching for a bus carrying Chinese tourists that was travelling along a road hit by landslides.
These landslides stranded 400 drivers - about 70 have been airlifted to safety.
Others are walking or being taken by bus through a section of the road cleared by rescuers.
At least 26 people were killed when Typhoon Megi crossed the northern Philippines.

The storm is now heading for south China's Fujian province, where flights have been cancelled, fishing vessels recalled to port and more than 100,000 people evacuated from low-lying areas.
In Taiwan, rescue teams were digging through mud at the White Cloud Buddhist temple in Suao city in search of six people believed to be trapped.
A search was also under way in Ilan county for a bus carrying 19 Chinese tourists on a road hit by multiple landslides and reported to have collapsed in one place.
Officials were helping to evacuate about 400 other people trapped on the road.

 

Climatism: That Climate Change Chameleon

Guest post by Steve Gorehamlink

Climatism, the belief that man-made greenhouse gases are destroying Earth’s climate, is a remarkably flexible ideology. Calling it “global warming” for many years, advocates then renamed the crisis “climate change” after the unexpected cooling of global surface temperatures from 2002-2009. Last month, John Holdren, Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, urged everyone to start using the term “global climate disruption.” What’s next — “catastrophic climate calamity”?

Decreasing snowfall was once claimed as an indication of man-made climate change. After years of declining snowfall in England, Dr. David Viner, senior scientist at the Climate Research Unit of East Anglia, predicted that winter snowfall would become “a very rare and exciting event.” Others predicted that snow cover in the United Kingdom would disappear by 2020. But last winter, at the same time that much of the eastern U.S. received record snowfalls, the U.K. was entirely blanketed by snow, as shown in the following NASA satellite photograph — a rare occurrence.
