Part II – Syria’s White Helmets: War By Way of Deception — ‘Moderate Executioners’

"Much of the propaganda surrounding Syria and the “conflict” is indeed, mythology spun-up by western agents of influence. A mythology created and disseminated by the NGO complex working diligently on the ground in Syria and remotely in the labyrinths of power, ensures that a steady flow of misinformation continues uninterrupted, one that is custom designed to alter public perception about the situation in Syria and drive us towards supporting the identical mistakes made in Iraq and Libya."

Fundacion Pachamama is Dead – Long Live ALBA [Part III of an Investigative Report]

"As resource accumulation necessitated the global transference of the principles of the Powell memo, NGOs are used as an integral soft power component of multinational corporate dominance that has now dwarfed any and all nation states in influence and control across the Earth."

WATCH: LIBYA: Race, Empire, and the Invention of Humanitarian Emergency

"The role of Western human rights organizations, as well as misinformation spread through "social media" with the intent of fostering fear of rampaging black people, are especially scrutinized."

The Virgin Fallacy: From the Famine Cotton Board to the Millennium Village Project

"The cover story in The Economist (June 1997) was “Emerging Africa.” It was a classic display of the arrogant paternalism that has come to be the hallmark of the new humanitarianism."

A List of Liberals & Leftists Who Supported the Bombing of Libya

"I was struck by how many prominent liberal and leftist pundits and journos took no position, at least none than I could find. (I’d argue that not speaking out against intervention — a euphemism for what was clearly a war of aggression from the outset — is a failing only slightly smaller than supporting it.)"

Wag the Dog: Campaigns of Purpose

"In 2014, the New York public relations firm Purpose created a campaign to rally international support for the Syrian “humanitarian intervention.” A euphemism for armed aggression by the US and NATO in places like Libya, this Syrian campaign in 2012 was backed by the New York lobby Avaaz, which in turn set up communications support for the so-called Syrian resistance."

The Failure Of The Left

"Left-green groups have achieved so little, in part because they have embraced corporate dissent and corporate dissent truly is cursed by the trade handling its messages from heaven. Consequently, these movements have been cursed, crushed, neutralised, neutered, made nonsensical by cooperating with a media system that is the sworn enemy of everything they are trying to achieve - deep change to the status quo."

Unmasking the “Good Intentions” of Canadian NGOs

"The NGO-mining corporation partnerships funded by the Canadian government are the latest example of how NGOs are used to put a “human face” on the inhuman, a tall order considering the trail of dead bodies and devastated ecosystems this sector of corporate capital has left in its wake."

Libya’s Hell, Enabled by Canadian Humanitarians

"What is so infuriating in the history of this hideous "mission" is the complete lack of remorse or shame at what has been "accomplished." Just like Iraq and Afghanistan, there are no regrets: Imperialism -- especially "humanitarian imperialism" -- will never admit to its crimes."

Welcome to the Brave New World – Brought to You by Avaaz

"Perriello no doubt believes in the myth of American exceptionalism. His patriotic views are reinforced by like-minded individuals from the Bush administration, the Obama administration, and the scores of organizations who "understand" the "need" to expand America's "democracy" and "economic prosperity" around the globe. And while these myths are pushed forward by Imperialist administrations, the non-profit industrial complex and corporate media, civil rights in America – and now Syria – are being stripped away faster than you can say fascism."
