Front page Daily Kos writer “Meteor Blades” knows who to blame for the Iranian seizure of British sailors: Daily Kos: More Evidence that British Captives Are Payback for U.S. raids.
His/her/its Bush-loathing screed is based on this article by Patrick Cockburn at UK leftist paper The Independent: The botched US raid that led to the hostage crisis … an unsourced piece of propaganda that simply recycles a three-month old story.
Meteor (or should I call it “Blades?”) does acknowledge there might be credibility problems with the article. But…
…it has a factual ring to it.
Fake … but accurate! The new transnational slogan for the progressive leaders of tomorrow.
