The truth will out?

I was always taught as a child that no matter how long it takes, the truth will always come out eventually. I'm guessing this is not just about instilling values in children but also to aid parents in their battle to keep kids on the straight and narrow.

So it's natural that one clings to these moments of instruction as one grows up (I always feel a bit posh, like, when I say "one").

Trouble is.....is it true?

I'm not so sure anymore.

It was the anniversary, yesterday, of an event that has affected me greatly, one which the world witnessed happen in front of their eyes. TV cameras captured every dreadful minute of it as the horror unfolded. We know exactly what happened from this and eye witness accounts, testimonies and more.

And yet......

....despicable people in the media in a quest for a sensationalist angle on the story, printed absolute lies and frankly bullshit peddled by scum who in a desperate bid to cover up their failings and negligence fabricated deceits that even the devil would shudder to create.

We know these things didn't happen because we were there, even if we weren't in the vicinity, we saw the pictures, we saw the truth.

And yet......

.....flash forward a generation and we are being confronted by neanderthals and cretins who believe the peddled lies because that's all people who weren't there will see. At least I hope its for this reason and not because they are so bitter and twisted up inside by blind hate and bile that they would choose to believe something that has been proved to be false over the truth.....They wouldn't be that dumb, would they?

We all have a responsibility to preserve the truth about this world and its people or else we lets those who hate, despise and kill win. No one wants that.

Oh and don't buy the fucking S*n newspaper.
