They don't know and can't know

The Bush regime lies of commission and omission about 9/11 (REALITY: 3,000 dead, most probably at the hands of US and Israeli agents) and the War on Terror ( REALITY: 5-9 million post-invasion excess deaths in the Occupied Iraqi and Afghan Territories alone) are SUSTAINED by the remorseless lying of the racist, holocaust-ignoring Mainstream media of the Western Murdochracies. 
 
The following is an acutely relevant quote from John Pilger\'s review of the second edition of Phillip Knightley\'s classic book on war and truth \"The First Casualty\" (both Knightley and Pilger are acclaimed Australian-British expatriate journalists) (see: The people don’t know and can’t know) QUOTE: \"When I read the first edition of this remarkable book twenty-five years ago, I was struck by the following quotations. During the First World War, Prime Minister David Lloyd George told C P Scott, editor of the Manchester Guardian: \"If the people really knew [the truth] the war would be stopped tomorrow. But of course they don\'t know and can\'t know.\" The truth was reported, insisted The Times correspondent, Sir Phillip Gibbs (knighted for his services), \"apart from the naked realism of horrors and losses, and criticism of the facts.\" 
 
Robert C Millar, a United Press correspondent covering the Korean War in 1952, was less subtle. \"There are certain facts and stories from Korea,\" he said, \"that editors and publishers have printed which were pure fabrication ... Many of us who sent the stories knew they were false, but we had to write them because they were official releases from responsible military headquarters and were released for publication even though the people responsible knew they were untrue.\" END QUOTE. 
 
Science is about critically testing potentially falsifiable hypotheses - and by definition scientists will get it wrong and indeed are always trying to DISPROVE hypotheses. However there is zero tolerance in Science for LYING.  
 
The same culture needs to be applied in the Western Murdochracies - all decent people must rigorously ESCHEW (avoid) the racist, lying Mainstream media of the Western Murdochracies who through their lying by omission and commission have enabled the horrendous atrocities of the 9/11 and the War on Terror.
