Deconstructing the spin from corporate media on Thailand

03 December 2013

By Hereward Fenton

Categories: [ Thailand ]

The spin from corporate media on Thailand is that the protest movement there represents a minority of the population and that they are anti-democratic.

The first claim is patently false, the second one is yet to be proven.

Let’s look at the first claim, about this being a minority movement. It’s true that the incumbent government won the previous election, so at one time they did indeed represent a majority. However, things have moved on and the mood of the people has changed. The protesters argue that the elections were won due to electoral bribes from the fantastically wealthy exiled former PM who has already been convicted on various corruption charges.

They further argue that the “redshirts” - so called regime loyalists - are an artificial construct,...

John Pilger

My guest today is legendary filmmaker John Pilger, who has just released a new documentary, 'Utopia', which documents the ongoing oppression of Australia's indigenous people which Pilger first highlighted in his 1985 film 'The Secret Country'.

During our interview Pilger explains how the false left/right paradigm disguises a much deeper agenda of control which we see being played out all over the world. He highlights the way in which racist policies such as the Northern Territory Intervention have been used in a sense to trial new ways of controlling populations, which are now being rolled out nationally, and across all ethnic divisions.

Pilger talks of a new class division which is being created within modern society, between those who are willing to go...

JFK and LBJ

My 2nd hour guest today is Roger Stone, author of The Man Who Killed Kennedy: The Case Against LBJ. Stone's book delves into many hidden aspects of the life and character of Lyndon Baines Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy as the 36th President of the United States on November 22, 1963.

Stone's indictment of the late President Johnson is severe and unrelenting. He describes LBJ as a narcissist, psychopath, alcoholic and sex addict - a man obsessed with his own self image and consumed with jealousy of JFK's status and mass appeal. According to Stone, LBJ's criminal past included eight murders. A major motive for his involvement in the assassination plot was an ongoing Senate investigation into bribery and corrupt financial dealings in which he was involved, and...

Karen Hudes

My guest today is Karen Hudes, former senior counsel at the World Bank.

From Karen's website:

In 1999 Karen reported the corrupt take-over of the second largest bank in the Philippines. Lucio Tan, a crony of Joseph Estrada, then President of the Philippines, acquired stock owned by government employees in Philippines National Bank (“PNB”) valued more than 10% of PNB’s outstanding capital without disclosure, as required by Philippines securities laws. Tan owned Philippines Airlines, in default on its loans from PNB. The government of the Philippines loaned $493 million to PNB after PNB’s depositors made heavy withdrawals. $200 million of a loan from the World Bank and a $200 million loan from Japan were cancelled.

Estrada was ultimately impeached,...

In the second hour of today's show I'm joined by John Jones QC, the International Criminal Court appointed lawyer for Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, who is currently in prison awaiting trial in Libya on various counts, inlcuding charges related to a visit by ICC lawyer Melinda Talyor last year.

Our discussion ranges over many aspects of the case, with particular emphasis on the way in which the international community has tacitly sanctioned the many violations of international law which have been carried out by the Libyan rebels who took over the country and summarily executed the former leader Colonel Gaddafi in 2011.

Also in the interview we take a look at the Julian Assange case with which Mr. Jones has some familiarity, and we consider the peculiar statutes in...

Today's show consists largely of a diatribe against the socialist wealth re-distribution mindset reflected in the recent interviews given by comedian Russell Brand.

This should not be seen as an endorsement of laissez faire capitalism or globalist monopolies masquerading as "free market", but there is an even greater danger posed by the forced re-distribution of wealth, which has lead in the past to crimes against humanity. The names Pol Pot, Mao and Stalin stand as a stark reminder of what happens when "equality" is forced upon a society.

Forced wealth re-distribution is essentially violence in the name of "greater good". It is essentially a lie. Historically, such programs always end in the kind of hypocrisy expressed in George Orwell's Animal Farm: “All...

Kevin P Miller

In today's show we bring you an exclusive interview with filmmaker Kevin P. Miller in which he discusses his latest film project. 

Letters From Generation Rx is a sequel to the shocking expose of the lethal effects of Psycho-Pharmaceutical drugs, Generation Rx, which was released in 2008.

After the release of his documentary GENERATION RX, which two-time Academy Award® winner Paul Haggis called "a powerful and often chilling eye-opener," Miller received thousands of letters from parents, teens, educators and others who shared their highly personal sagas. This film reflects those stories — combined with the latest mental health research, science, and medical health perspectives.

The filmmaker spent two years interviewing some of the world’s most...

Today's show focuses once again on Syria. We analyse and highlight the issues in the Syrian crisis and remark upon the inability or unwillingness of corporate media to give any credence to the possibility that the chemical weapons attacks in Syria were false flag provocations designed specifically to force western intervention.

We consider the inability of the media to consider the possibility of false flag operations generally and speculate as to why indeed the quality of modern journalism is so intellectually weak.

Our scheduled interview with Franklin Lamb was unfortunately cancelled and will be held at a future date.

We also bring you a story which illustrates the degree to which our right to privacy has been eroded in Australia. The Australian Bureau...

My guest in the 2nd hour of today's show is Scott Bartle, author of "Frequently Unanswered Questions of the Australian Government".

Scott claims that the "Australian Government" is now in receivership, having defaulted on repayments of bank loans which are ultimately underwritten by the US Federal Reserve. He further proposes that there are in fact 2 governments, and that the entity known as the "Australian Government" is not the same thing as the "Government of the Commonwealth".

Are you confused yet? Well buckle up, because it gets murkier from here.

In our wide ranging discussion Scott details his research into the true structure of our government and our banking system. His conclusions are startling and have very serious implications for the basic...

Today's show largely focuses on Syria and we bring you 2 interviews during the course of the show.

In the first hour I am joined by John Bursill who outlines his view about Syria and then gives us a breakdown of his view of the Australian political spectrum. This show was recorded before the 2013 Federal elections, and therefore contains speculations and discussion which may have been made irrelevant by the Coalition's stunning victory on Saturday.

In the 2nd hour I am joined once again by Leon Pittard, host of Fair Dinkum Radio, and our discussion focuses largely on the Syria situation and failure of our own government to live up to the expected standards of a peaceful democracy.

Foreign Minister Bob Carr says that there is a flaw in international law, and the US should be able to bomb Syria without UN approval

In today's show we delve into the psychological underpinnings of the new tyranny. We propose the idea that modern society is afflicted with an epidemic of narcissism, which itself creates the patterns of lawlessness, exploitation and rampant militarism which we see everywhere these days.

In the first half of the show we run through some of the more egregious examples of dishonesty in world leaders, with a focus on the unfolding Syrian crisis. We take a look at recent statements by Australian PM Kevin Rudd, Foreign Minister Bob Carr, the US Secretary of state John Kerry and the French President Francois Hollande, and we...

Susan LindauerIn the 2nd hour of today's show I'm honoured to introduce Susan Lindauer, a former CIA asset and back channel negotiator who tried in vain to avert the 2003 Iraq war and was incarcerated under the Patriot Act on spurious charges which were later dropped.

Susan is a passionate anti-war activist who has vast inside knowledge of the covert aspects of international diplomacy, and was in close contact with members of the Iraq government up until the US invasion in 2003.

Our discussion tonight largely focuses on the case of Bradley Manning who today received a 35 year sentence after being convicted on 17 charges of espionage on July 30 2013.

RECLAIM AUSTRALIA IS DOOMED

Although I agree with many of their ideas, the forces reigned against RAM are too great, violent, statist and reactionary for them to remain a non-political, broad based, multi-ethnic, community protest group for much longer. The Left and their Antifa nihilist fellow travelers are already pushing them towards the extreme Right, by calling them racists and Islamophobes and so on. Whilst the extreme Right have aligned themselves with RAM. With fascists of the Left and Right pressuring them they will not be able to remain beyond the Left-Right divide and will inevitably move to the Right - the extreme Right. Which is already happening. A development which will alienate decent Australians of all ethnic backgrounds many of whom currently support them. 

The RAM leadership have already established open alliances with the Patriotic Front (the ape in the photograph is a Patriot Front supporter at a recent Richmond demonstration) Australia First and Golden Dawn, a Greek neo-Nazi party. Members of these collectivist groups are currently attending RAM demonstrations all over Australia.

There is a real need in Australia to establish a political movement beyond the Left-Right divide and their vested interests, a movement that questions the current direction Australia is heading i.e. the direction the Left/Right and their extremes would like to take it; that questions the efficacy of state sponsored multiculturalism, as opposed to a proper, non-discriminatory immigration policy; that questions the validity of political correctness; that is politically neutral, anti-war and pro environment; that is opposed to all collectivists ideologies (fascisms of the Left and Right); that would dismantle the power pyramids of corporations and banks and their ability to impact on government; that would dissolve all anti-terror laws and all laws that impose on the rights and freedom of the individual and the people.

I second Keith’s assertion that Mike Holt from Restore Australia is very much a fake.  He bangs on about Halaal being a scam and money maker for Islam (and no I don’t support Halaal whatsoever), but makes excuses for its counterpart Kosher as being a somehow legitimate.  Double standards?  When I confronted him about this fact he went off on a convoluted tirade about Israel being some sort of “Bastion of Democracy” in the middle east…Really!, I will leave that one up to the readers to decide on.  I found that MH came across as disingenuous to say the least.

Without doubt, TNR is one of the best, if not the best alternative news source on the net. Which doesn’t mean Herewood is always right. His job, I believe, is to present the facts as he sees them as an objectively as possible, without fear or favor.  For this, he has my respect and support. But I believe he needs to be careful and to think a little deeper about the problems of “racism,” in Australia. He has labelled the Reclaim Australia Movement as racist. I’m wondering if his objectivity is a little weak on this point, a little without foundation.

Of course all political movements have its fringe groups and individuals. We make a distinction between, for example, a Muslim and a fundamentalist Muslim (Islamist), and by so doing we don’t claim that all Muslims are blood thirsty fanatics. If its good for the Muslims, then its good for RAM, which is bound to attract a few lunatics and real racists. But to brand the entire movement as “racist” is wrong; it is the same ploy that is used by the mainstream media and its left-wing, establishment Marxist boot boys.

One of the first things I noticed when i attended a RAM rally recently were the amount of non-white people in attendance, including Aboriginals. In fact the main banner of RAM contains an Australian flag and an Aboriginal flag. Speakers at their rallies have included Jews, Arabs, Indians, Aboriginals, Chinese and so on. What does this tell you? Is this really a fascist-Nazi-racist movement whose stated aim are the eradication and exclusion of other cultures, in place of some sort of Aussie white Reich, or is this just propaganda that is being propagated by the left for their own political interests. Consequently, we all know where the culmination of their politics have led, historically speaking, which are to the imposition of terror and dictatorships.

We can be thankful for small mercies, in terms of the Left, which today mostly tends to attract collectivists, establishmentarians and the privileged sons and daughters of the upper bourgeoisie, who seems to share one thing in common, nativity….

Mike Holt from Restore Australia is very much a fake.  He hasn’t even been citizen for but a few years.  But, he makes out like he was born there.  ALSO - this guy spent 30 years in Thailand working shady businesses.  I would wager that his primary purpose in being an activist is that he wants to make money off selling merchandise.

good to see you putting out some new shows heraward

freely the banana girl is to a certain extent a troll, as is her boyfriend durian rider. they have been trolling the fitness community on youtube for some time… and yes they are extreme but they are also trolls. They use their trolling to spread their message. currently, another dude called vegangains is trolling the fitness community as well.

i am a vegetarian, and it was seeing this documentary on the pork industry that started me on the vegetarian path. for anyone interested, its pretty off the charts disturbing and its australian as well. its pretty much made by dudes breaking into pork farms and filming what they find

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KArL5YjaL5U

Would the world be better if people cared where their food came from? probably, they might then care about other things too

do you become a better person if you dont eat meat? i feel like a better person mainly because animals aren’t being hurt because of me. i dont feel humans have to eat meat really… or at least not much. How can you watch that documentary on pork, know that that is pretty much whats going on and turn a blind eye to it? I think its basic empathy and just saying well ‘i like bacon so yeah’ is in my opinion wrong and i can see freleys point of view to an extent. In my opinion, at least these people believe in something. i see my money as my vote, henceforth im ethical as to what i do with it. free range eggs became mainstream for exactly this reason… although im pretty sure woolies and coles lobbied the state to change the definition of the word ‘free range’ at some point. I dont eat beef because the amount of resources that go into growing a cow are pretty crazy. Think about how much grass that cow needs to eat before it is harvested and how much space it requires. think of how many vegies you could grow in the same space with the same amount of water. lamb? comon, think about what your doing here… but that being said i think most vegans are total loons. People like freeley should be advocating for the destruction of lions and tigers, as lions and tigers murder other animals in truly horrific style. if we humans are smart enough to not harm animals, then we should be stopping the animals that harm other animals from existing. Freeley also kills birds when she flies in aeroplanes so she is a hypocrite.

feminism is one of the biggest problems in society today and although there is some valid historical basis to it, the liberation of the human female from their biology is in my opinion largely a product of the technological advance of humans. sufferagettes where never machine gunned on the streets, unlike the men that where drafted and sent off to war to die just a few years earlier. as technology has advanced, women have advanced as well, however now its going way too far and is pretty blatantly anti male in many respects. i view feminism in its modern context as a tool of the social marxists that really isnt doing society a great deal of good at this time. its screwing up gender dynamics and is wrecking women and men for each other. i see it as low frequency, lowest common denominator idiocy, just like a lot of the the race baiting ‘is this racist’ stuff getting around that is being perpetuated pretty much as a distraction, divide and conquer strategy by the power elite. idiots love this kind of bicker and beef… it would be funny if it wasn’t so serious

anyway

I agree with steven friar. gods a maniac

Almost two months since the last broadcast! How the hell can you expect people to donate when you don’t broadcast? Looks like the ship of truth has sprung a leak. This broadcast has been part of my life almost since its inception…it is one of the few alternative news sources that hasn’t gone off the deep end, by dilution credible information with crap e.g. Fairdinkum Radio and Info Wars…Pittard started FR with some incredibly interesting material, but then he flipped…Today he sounds like a fundamentalist preacher, the Christian equivalent to a Fanatical Islamist. As an atheist, I think he’s really ###### up a potentially good show. As for Info Wars, all they would have to do to improve is dump Alex Jones, what a shit-for-brains. I reckon Jones and Pittard are allowed to proliferate, because they’re so stupid and harmless. I suppose they have some entertainment value, and along with David Icke are living examples of how low the alternative media has sunk. Truth News Radio is, or should I say was, way ahead of them all ahead of them all in terms of credibility How sad that its come to this.
