FAKE NEWSMEN, FASCISTS, FAECES : AND SOME FASCINATING FACTS by Donal Kennedy

I read  that  STEPHEN POLLARD , a member of the war-mongering Henry Jackson Society, and Editor of the Jewish Chronicle when it was forced by Britain’s Independent

Press Standards Organisation  to publish a 1,300 word condemnation for a series of falsehoods it had published in its campaign to have Jeremy Corbyn ousted from the Labour

 leadership, now writes for the DAILY TELEGRAPH and for THE DAILY MAIL.

The Daily Mail infamously once had a headlined “Hurrah for the Blackshirts” a sentiment common to conservative papers in these islands from  1923-1940,

when Benito Mussolini was a Knight of the Bath, and was filling the coffers of the British-owned Suez Canal Company for passages of his troops and equipment to the

rape of Abyssinia and beyond. But the actual headline “Hurrah for the Blackshirts” was in support of the British Blackshirts at the time of the Battle of London’s Cable St in 1936

when Sir Oswald Mosley’s thugs were intent on attacking the Jews in that area, who were defended  by anti-fascists, mainly working class neighbours, trade unionists, socialists and communists.

London’s Metropolitan Police rallied to the protection of the Fascists, and I understand that few of London’s titled and wealthy Jews gave their  less “respectable” Jews either

moral or physical support.

(It seems there is a universal tendency for comfortable and wealthy people to despise their less materially-rich neighbours. Middle class Irish people despise poorer ones,

particularly if the poorer ones live North of the Border, Oil-rich Kuwaiti were reported  to throw pennies at Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, and rich Arab States appear to have

more love for Netanyahu and his US sponsors than for their abused fellow-Arabs in Palestine.) 

Anyhow Jeremy Corbyn, who has been a regular attender at commemorations of the victory over Mosley, has recorded that his mother helped defend the Jews in Cable Street

in 1936. And Stephen Pollard has asked in reply – “On which side?”

I have written about Stephen Pollard, and another fake newsman, Hugh Pollard in the BLOG  – “TWO TURDS OF A FEATHER -GUYS  NAMED  POLLARD. ” and   I believe i

had them both “Bang to Rights”.  As for THE HENRY JACKSON SOCIETY see my Blogs “SCOOP” and “IS THE HENRY JACKSON SOCIETY MORE DANGEROUS THAN 

THE CORONA VIRUS?

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH incorporates THE MORNING STAR which organised the presentation of a large sum of money for Brigadier General Dyer of Amritsar Massacre

infamy.  It has learned nothing in the 101 years since that atrocity.

Chris Mullin, in one of his excellent memoirs recalls being in Saigon during America’s war there, when a South Korean Army Lieutenant was on the phone to the  Daily Telegraph

giving a propaganda spiel to it which was published under the name of a fictitious English journalist with an English name.

Today there are regular reports in the Western Media from a “pro-Democracy” publicist with a Chinese “Nom de Plume”, whose actual name is said to be Brian Patrick Kern.

All’s foul in a propaganda war.

Chris Mullin was in Phnom Penh in Cambodia in 1970 when the US Air Force was bombing the country to bits, unbeknownst to the US Congress. The bombers’ air traffic controllers

were stationed in the  US Embassy there and Chris Mullin was listening to their radio instructions broadcast in unscrambled English.

No less murderous was the British Ambassador in Djakarta, Sir Andrew Gilchrist in 1965 when he orchestrated the coup which murdered a million civilians and brought in a regime

which helped to pauperize the people of Indonesia in partnership with the World Bank.

Four years later Gilchrist, as Ambassador to Ireland, organised with Harold Wilson and his crooked fixer Lord Arnold Goodman, the establishment of the secretive, oathbound,

IRISH TIMES TRUST, which made MI5’s Major Tom McDowell dictator for life over the paper so that it served British Government interests and continues to do so eleven years

after his death. Under this arrangement one Editor is said to have been paid more than that of The Daily Telegraph which had nine  times the circulation of the Irish Times.
