Kuwaiti Daily journalist Abdul-Hussain is admonishing American mainstream media sources like NYT’s, Washington Post, MSNBC and CNN for not telling the truth about what’s really happening in Iraq, and how not all Iraqi’s are in favor of expelling US troops from their country.
In his efforts to exposed the lies of the mainstream media, Abdul-Hussain posted a very telling “off the record” video that shows a member of the Iraqi parliament warning his fellow lawmakers that ejecting US troops means Iraq loses its oil revenue, causing their economy to collapse.
4- Parliament speaker told lawmakers off-the-record that ejecting US troops means Iraq uses its oil revenue, and state funds will therefore dry up, without which Iraqi economy will collapse. See @AlhurraIraq here: https://t.co/WpAUpPB0sQ

Earlier today, Abdul-Hussain blasted the New York Times and the Washington Post for either being “so misinformed (either on purpose or because of incompetence)” that their readers might believe the Iraqi State has officially voted for ejecting US forces from Iraq (because of Trump’s miscalculated move to kill Soleimani).”
The Kuwaiti Daily reporter blasted the NYT’s, Washington Post, MSNBC and CNN for reporting fake news propaganda about the events taking place in Iraq following the death of General Qassam Soleimani.
Abdul-Hussain tweeted:
What NYT, Washington Post, Foreign Policy, MSNBC, CNN have been reporting on #Soleimani 1- #Soleimani had blood on his hands, but killing him was unwise (as if giving Iran money for nuclear freeze without a deal over its regional militias or ballistic missiles is wise)
Hussain cites several examples of lies told by the American mainstream media in a series of four tweets:
Fact 2: Under Saddam, Kim Jung Un, Khamenei, public opinion can never be gauged relying on size of popular rallies. Only weeks ago, Iran cut the internet and its snipers shot anti-regime demonstrators in the hearts and heads, killing between 1,000 and 4,000 Iranians

4- That nuclear deal with Iran, which even by Obama’s standards did not result in trust-building and ending Iranian destabilizing activities around the world (including in Europe), is the silver bullet and should be restored

Is it okay for the mainstream media to lie to the American people, as long as their shared goal is to damage the President of the United States because they don’t like him or his policies?
