Iran and Lumber

Can We Believe Anything We Hear About Iran?
 

The mass media is full of stories about the evil Iranian leaders and the brave democratic forces fighting them. Can we believe this?

    I say we can’t. I would like to think

I’m hearing the true news from our traditional news sources (TV, radio, and newspaper), but I’m afraid I can’t. I used to, before 9/11, but studying the subject has convinced me that the important news we get from the mass media is propaganda. I’ll define propaganda as information which is controlled by other people with an agenda. That means CNN, Fox News, ABC, CBS, and even MSNBC.  It’s the New York Times, the Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, the Los Angeles Times and most of the important news sources.

    I think these protests and riots in Iran are a put-up job by our own CIA, MI6, and Mossad. Maybe even the Boy Scouts are helping.

    People born after 1960 need to read about the history of CIA meddling in Iran during the 1950s. How we overthrow the legitimately elected government of Mohammed Mosaddeq. Add to that the current psychotic attitude of Israel toward Iran and Muslims, the likelihood of this being a put-up job by the CIA and Mossad is almost certain. Unless Martians are involved.

    Should our views about other countries be based on problems we ourselves created in that country? I don’t think so.

    We’re so lucky we have the internet because it’s the only place we can really discover the truth.

Is HealthNet In The Lumber Business? Today, I received my 247th letter from my HealthNet Insurance Provider. Although they all say “This is not a bill,” they do not have a “Throw Away Without Reading” warning. Although that is eventually what I end up doing. I can’t believe my Medicare insurance premium is paying for all that paper, much less my health benefits. I’m convinced that HealthNet is actually a cover name for a paper mill in Oregon. They sure do love churning it out. Anyone who goes to the market can tell you paper is expensive. Add the postage and HealthNet charges the government $2.00 for every letter they send me. That’s where the dough comes from: Paper. Paper made from wood pulp. Wood pulp made from lumber. Lumber made from trees. Am I the only one who’s connected the dots? BEWARE OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS GIVING AWAY WOOD.
