    This is an indictment of the antiwar movement as much as it is of American media. We need to be educating Americans somehow, because if every American knew what was really happening the number opposed to the war could only increase. The mainstream media won’t do it, it has to be us.

        So basically no different than Russian citizens not believing that they were the ones invading Ukraine without cause, or that their own soldiers were the ones raping and torturing innocent civilians even when the news was coming from their own family members. It must really suck to live in that level of self-delusion.
