Finally, I want to say that it pains me greatly to make this criticism of Paul Craig Roberts, whom I have praised repeatedly in comments on OEN. I was responsible for getting him and Noam Chomsky together for a Rob Kall podcast (see here , here , and here ). Anybody can make a mistake, and I still agree with most of what Roberts writes (just as I agree with most of what Chomsky writes), but mistakes are mistakes and have to be corrected. (I have documented my quarrel with Chomsky in my book Looking for the Enemy, and I think I won the argument, but I can still respect him and admire him.)
I think Roberts on the whole, this article about "Armageddon" notwithstanding, is correct about the planet-threatening warmongering hype against Russia that permeates the US and European mainstream media. Thus it pains me doubly to point out his journalistic failings here, but it must be done, and I do so as much out of my continuing respect for Paul Craig Roberts as for the truth, which allows for no compromise.
