Asbeau: Like I'm gonna believe anything on RT
RT is one of the best news channels, as is AlJazeera and Channel News Asia, as you get information other channels won't dare to report.
I suppose you believe the BBC, who are so far up the UK government's butt they are never coming down. Thought it was hilarious to watch the BBC reporting the other day about Glen Greenwald's partner's illegal arrest, and then backtracking adding "well of course national security should be protected". Total bullshit, but typical BBC believing and reporting on the lies Cameron and his ilk are spewing.
It's sad really. British news channels used to be excellent, but now they are so terrified about reporting anything worthwhile, there are few British sources worth reading or believing. I periodically check The Guardian but now get most of my news at Aljazeera, RT, Der Speigel and El Pais. None of them are perfect, but they're far better than most British news media.
I used to be proud to be British. Not anymore. Can't wait to ditch the nationally for one from an EU country.
Bloodygoodgames: I give them 20 years max before the US and the UK implode and China runs the world.
Personally, I can't wait :)
Zoltan999: Yeah, because China doesn't spy, has a wonderful track record with human rights, and cares more about the environment, ect, ect. What a much better world it will be....
Have you been to China?
No, of course you haven't. You just believe everything the US media tells you, as America is absolutely terrified of China as they know they are going to be beaten by them, and pretty soon too. So it's all negative reporting about China in America. Believe me, I witnessed it for 20 years.
China is actually a very interesting country (I've been several times) and, sure, they have environmental problems but they know it and, long-term, they are working on it. America, however, up until the last couple of years, was the world's biggest polluter for decades. Used 25 percent of the world's resources and produced 25 percent of the world's garbage, yet with only 6 percent of the world's population. At least the Chinese have some excuse having over a billion people.
Anyway, I'll take the Chinese any day of the week, over the American government and it's long history of illegal bombings and invasions of other countries - Korea, Vietnam, Panama, Iraq, Afganistan, the CIA's illegal overthrowing of a democratically elected Iranian president, blah blah blah. America has done more damage to the world than the Chinese could possibly do in my lifetime.
