Anti-War News

     I could say that the reason we don't hear about these issues of foreign intervention in the mainstream media is because they are trying to push an agenda.  I could say that I think they want these wars to go on for whatever reason, but I'm not going to.  While I am not one to trust the mainstream media very much, I don't want to be conspiratorial and assume bad motive.  There might be some of that, but there might not be.  I think the main reasons behind us not hearing about foreign affairs such as wars and violence on the part of the US are twofold.

     For one, I think the media doesn't want to report on this stuff because they are focused on making money, and reporting on this information might not be very lucrative in their view.  The other part, which ties into it, is that they try to report on things that an average Joe will understand.  I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I honestly don't understand foreign policy very much, even though I do pay attention to politics.  Even if I'm told what happens in the Middle East, I'm not going to understand it very well unless it's carefully explained to me.  And the mainstream media isn't really the place for that.  They're focused on boiled down, quick explanations of things, and foreign policy is too deep for that.  At least, that's how I see it.  I could be wrong.

     I think that the reason we have to find obscure websites for this kind of information is because it's kind of a niche topic.  Unless you're already interested in foreign policy, it's not really something you'll be able to readily understand if you come across it.  I think that's why websites like antiwar.com are obscure.  They're the kind of topics that need to be sought out rather than stumbled upon.
