Christiane Amanpour has based her entire career on advocacy journalism, so where is the surprise?

No one even knew who she was until she took up advocating the Bosnian Muslims in the Bosnian war 20 years ago.

Big "coincidence" -- Christiane Amanpour was born in Iran, the Bosnian Muslims had the support of Iran and was being supplied illegal arms by Iran, but no one mentioned that. And anyone who tried to get that connection information out, was labeled "a Serb apologist for genocide".

August 13, 1992. "The [sniper] killing of US broadcaster ABC's producer David Kaplan and the shooting down of an Italian Air Force G.222 transport aircraft on approach to Sarajevo. In both these cases Serbian forces were out of range, and the weapons actually used against the victims were not those claimed by the Bosnian Muslim authorities and the parroting Western media." (Offensive in the Balkans, by Yossef Bodansky). In the case of David Kaplan, who was inside a vehicle in Bosnian Muslim territory, the shot had to have come from ground level. However, CNN's Christiane Amanpour, in interviews such as the Charlie Rose Show, blamed the Serbs for the death of David Kaplan. Christiane Amanpour is CNN's female version of Peter Arnett.

Having directly influenced US foreign policy in the Balkans, Amanpour was made "a hero" to her fellow journailsts -- even if it required lying. So what do you think you can expect from her? Except more lies!

January 16, 1997 Extended Bosnia Mission Endangers U.S. Troops Clinton-Approved Iranian Arms Transfers Help Turn Bosnia into Militant Islamic Base "'There is no question that the policy of getting arms into Bosnia was of great assistance in allowing the Iranians to dig in and create good relations with the Bosnian government,' a senior CIA officer told Congress in a classified deposition. 'And it is a thing we will live to regret because when they blow up some Americans, as they no doubt will before this . . . thing is over, it will be in part because the Iranians were able to have the time and contacts to establish themselves well in Bosnia.'" ["Iran Gave Bosnia Leader $500,000, CIA Alleges: Classified Report Says Izetbegovic Has Been 'Co-Opted,' Contradicting U.S. Public Assertion of Rift," Los Angeles Times, 12/31/96. Ellipses in original. Alija Izetbegovic is the Muslim president of Bosnia.]

Anti-Christiane Ahmadpour is an Islamic pen in the US. Lets face it, there are two wars to fight when in a conflict, the political war which is waged by “journalists” and then there is the military.

“Journalists” such as Ahmadpour are many. The few that are not in that group are forced to the fringe and labeled. It's a system of information and perception control.

Nobody knows much about how Clintoon struck a deal with Iran to send arms to the Islamofascists in Bosnia. Because “journalists” were busy providing cover.
