US State Department's Ned Price yesterday proved that — he has been mesmerized by Joseph Goebbels' ghost

Introductory note

 

Joseph Goebbels was Hitler's propaganda minister.

 

 

Can one get more obtusely asinine than the following?

 

Below is a video clip of State Department spokesman, Ned Price, heatedly telling AP reporter Matt Lee, that:

 

 

(a) US intelligence has found that Russia is planning a false flag operation in Ukraine

 

and

 

(b) that Price's evidence-lacking allegation is proof enough of the American claim.

 

 

See their exchange here:

Ned Price (a former CIA employee) is a good example of exactly . . .

 

. . . how effectively American government brainwashes itself.

 

Price is (obviously and obliviously) so vacuously unaware that he cannot even distinguish the difference between:

 

 

(i) asserting a proposition

 

and

 

(ii) listing the concrete, substantive elements that one would need to prove its truth.

 

 

Those are the most basic aspects of thinking, much less 'critical thinking'.

 

I tentatively conclude that Ned Price, who is a product of the 'best' US schools, might as well be a monkey.

 

 

The moral? — Monkeys are running American government

 

They have access to nukes.

 

God help us.
