Scahill was also involved with misreporting information alongside his partner Amy Goodman when it came to the truth about the liberation of Aleppo. I recommend watching "Tapestry of Terror" in order to see how Goodman misrepresented events in Aleppo, Syria. This video is a true eye-opener. Its noteworthy also that TruthOut also ran with Amy Goodman's false narrative. After Russian and Syrian armed forces liberated Aleppo it was revealed that there were approximately 35,000 people in that part of the city. Approximately 10,000 were FSA/al-Nusra Front jihadists holding civilians hostage, who were at that time placed on buses by the Syrian government and transported to Idlib, Syria (an al-Nusra Front main base). The Tapestry of Terror video reveals that Amy Goodman (via her own statements)reported over 250,000 people were trapped and being barrel bombed by the Syrian and Russian armed forces. She also stated over 100,000 of those 250,000 'trapped' people were children. These were obvious misrepresentations of the facts on the ground, yet she promoted them as truth, and had guests on her show who asserted such. Additional link proving such:

You have to recognize that when you pick out a single topic and post only about that, it makes you look like a shill for one side. Everything you have posted about on steemit is either pro-russian view in ukraeine or pro-russian view in syria.
What about the shredding of the constitution by the american police/cia forces?
What about the president of the united states having ties to foreign government, including israel, that any other president would have been laughed out of the country for having. JFK was a huge scandal just because he was kindof catholic. What if he actually had 500million in business investment from the pope too? And that's the pope, not the president of russia.
What about all these popup nooz sites whose ownership and purpose can't be verified?
As a marine you sword to defend the constitution, if you aren't writing about how it's being shredded and how the president can't be trusted, then I can't believe you are taking that oath seriously.
I'm not worried about perceived bias. I just post about what I perceive to be the truth regarding important geopolitical matters and the crimes of the global elite. I leave it up to you to answer your own questions and reveal what you like in regards to the topics you mention. Much of what you are stating is, unfortunately, whataboutism.
Regarding Trump, you may want to do some research on the material I have posted in relation to his backers and the Hegelian Dialectic.
Beyond The Divisive Agenda – Defining Donald Trump As A Tool of The Zionist-Elite And Why He Was Really Placed In Power To Wage War on Iran

Just an FYI: I see your favorite sites TruthOut, TruthDig, Democracy Now, The Intercept, AlterNet, Salon as the antithesis to the republicans thesis. Both sides keep the American people spinning on the endless hamster wheel. The sites I mention are simply corrals where "so called liberals" are shepherded and kept from addressing some of the most important issues related to all this geopolitical madness and divisiveness. They play a major role in the divide and conquer agenda. Many of their main players can be traced back to a number of elitist foundations and individuals. The Hegelian Dialectic is employed to keep the American people at each others throats and in the dark as to the warcrimes and support for terrorist groups/financiers that the US government is conducting overseas. Keep in mind that I state "so called liberals" due to the fact that a real liberal progressive person would be anti-war first and foremost ( the people at those sites seem to forget that real people of all persuasions are being killed in the US Deep States wars for Empire. The folks that run those sites have a clear bias proven by the fact they have misreported the wars in Syria, Libya and Ukraine. They primarily neglected to report on them (propaganda by omission), and/or provided misreporting in relation to these nefarious US and NATO actions.
As far as my oath as a Marine goes, I subscribe to the philosophy of USMC General Smedley Butler........War is a Racket. The enemy is not foreign, it is domestic. It is within the top tiers of the US government and the MIC which President Dwight Eisenhower warned about. It has come to be our sad reality. Any true Marine should be working to reveal those nefarious connections before they and their Marine Corps brothers and sisters end up dying for a rich mans lie.
You have it really wrong about my favorite sites, I did quote the intercept as I believe their story about the leak of assange's private chats where he reveals he's batshit and absolutely unobjective, but I actually wrote a post about my favorite sites here:

truthdig is indeed one of them, I do not feel it plays into the dialectic that divides americans, hedges talks all the time about the fake dichotomy and bankrupcy of the democratic party.
This all though sounds much better, I suppose it might help you to know though that scanning your work of late it has just all been focused on a pretty one sided aspect of things. Sure I want american soldiers out of syria and I don't think ukraine belongs in nato, or that the united states should foment revolutions in other countries, or israel like they did in egypt tunisia libya and syria.
so just maybe round out your blog some more with the antizionist, war is a a racket stuff, and then I wont write stuff like I did.
I recommend everyone check out my privacy workshop, it is my most important work and has a lot of stuff in one place that can't be found elsewhere without a lot of time looking around. I ultimately am arguing for the individual in western civilization vs the eastern mentality that is ultimately fascist, totalitarian and plutarchic in all of the worst ways.

Thank you! I seriously was wondering about the Amy Goodman and TruthOut situation after I heard Ray McGovern tell Tom Woods that he was BANNED from Democracy Now! for questioning the Russia/Syria/Trump narrative.
Exactly what I was looking for.
EDIT: Those numbers don't even remotely pass the smell test. 250,000 children?
The White Helmet scandal I learned about from Max Blumenthal with his work at Alternet. I've used that to open some eyes to the truth of Aleppo.
Do you know if Goodman covered the US-backed slaughters in Mosul?
I don't follow democracy now due to their refusal to accept the truth about 9/11 being a mossad/rogueCIA operation.
Max Blumenthal is awesome, if you search radio4all.net for him you can find some awesome talks. But really this link: https://steemit.com/truth/@mindhawk/truth-now-links-1-actual-journalism-on-the-internet
Has some great middle east links, it all goes back to the creation of israel and they have been screwing the united states over since before day 1.
