Just to be clear….essentially every major news publication on earth is lying. World leaders did not “march” in Paris in support of free speech. World leaders got together for a photo opportunity and pretended to march – purposely making the angle of the photo and other supporting photos look like they were with demonstrators when they were not. The news media, as always, towed the line of what the politicians wish to present.

Marching and pretending to march are not the same thing. There is a difference. Just like there is a difference between actually supporting free speech and, what almost all these leaders do, which is enforcing restrictions on free speech. In the crowd we have leaders who have had journalists killed and bloggers jailed, websites banned and freedoms limited. Politicians lie. They are not the solution to our problems.
