Paris Lost Credibility Supporting Israel: Ken O`Keefe (VIDEO)

France supposedly is very supportive of the Palestinians? Well, this is absolute nonsense unless we consider shallow talk with no actual meaningful physical action behind it, substantial; and it is not.

(LONDON / TEHRAN Press TV) - Press TV has conducted an interview with Ken O’Keefe, a former US Marine from the city of London, to further discuss French President Francois Hollande’s newly adopted pro-Israeli foreign policies.

What Happened in Geneva?

Did France object to its partners (Iran says most of the time in Geneva was spent on discussions between themselves) who then changed their original draft agreement (which Iran was prepared to sign) to something Iran would not sign?

(PORTLAND, OR) - Below is just one sample of the contradictory media narratives of what happened at the Geneva negotiation between five of the nuke powers (plus Germany) and Iran.

Everyone assumed they were going to be just between the US (and its noisy “strategic partner, Israel) and Iran, but then came the news that France was the obstacle to at least a preliminary deal.

Israel Hides Nukes Behind `Ambiguity` Wall

Prove What You Don`t Have

Those who insisted that Iraq prove that it didn't have what it said it didn't have simply rejected Iraq's denial, which cost a million and a half lives and trillions of dollars.

(MANAMA, Bahrain) - Prove that you don't have what I believe you have! That was an exact demand made on Saddam Hussein. He scoffed. That brought "shock and awe", and Saddam was hanged on the mother of all ropes.

Prove that you don't have weapons of mass destruction (WMDs). The neocons sold the logic of that empty demand and the American public bought it.

`Damning Evidence` Becomes `No Clear Evidence`: Much-Delayed Report On Congenital Birth Defects In Iraq

"All studies done by the Ministry of Health prove with damning evidence that there has been a rise in birth defects and cancer, since the substances in question cause birth defects if the mother was exposed to them, or cancer, or in some cases, both." - senior MOH official in Baghdad

(LONDON) - In a 2010 alert, 'Beyond Hiroshima – The Non-Reporting Of Fallujah's Cancer Catastrophe', we noted the almost non-existent media response to the publication of a new study that had found high rates of infant mortality, cancer and leukemia in the Iraqi city.
