Even knowing that that it was 100% proveable truth such as that all leaders in Parliament are personally ................................

And bravo for the PressTV interview - I've posted so many polite pro-protest comments on their site - and they all get suppressed.

It uses human rights (the tilt of Western Liberal-Democratic constitutions) to undermine systems of governments which are more duties tilted (Soviet style and 'theocratic' constitutions). It's one thing to campaigh for universal peace and goodwill, and other to use this (including arts steeped in this) to increase one's hegemony and markets. Iranian protestors - Note how the footage of people throwing 'missiles' at the police was descriebd as peachful or at most 'angry'. No ivestigation until Ahmadinejad called for one into the shooting, but the Western media leapt on the speculation it was Basij... Would that happen here or would there have been an investigation?Anyone who does not consider the Western reporting as having been obviously biased/inflammatory is unable to recognise propaganda, and anyone who is prevented from pointing this out with concern, is being subjected to censorship or the whims of fashionable 'House Rules', as we tend to call censorship. To have inclusion/exclusion criteria on the basis of someone possibly being 'offended' is veiled press censorship - what else shall we call it as challenging opinions and beliefs is by desigh 'offensive'.

Perhaps that's because the BBC regards protesters who take to the streets in support of the democratically elected leader as fanatics.e.g."with hundreds of protesters chanting the president's name have proved that he has his fanatical supporters."http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8125726.stmIn contrast, protesters in Iran are described as "very courteous".http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/8111695.stmWhy are Hondurans chanting their presidents name "Fanatics" whereas Iranians chanting Mousavis' name are "very courteous"?An interesting bit of impartiality from the BBC there.
