[Peace-discuss] Warning about "Russiagate!"

[Robert Naiman]

I don't dispute that Russia messed around in the U.S. election.

The question is: how significant should we make this, compared to other
things?

Why does MSNBC give a thousand times more attention to this than the
U.S.-Saudi war in Yemen, which, unlike the Russian messing around in the
U.S. election, is actually killing children every day?

Why would any honest and righteous liberal promote what MSNBC is doing?
