Apparently it is fine for Alistair to spread disinformation and it is wrong to point out that what he is saying does not match the truth. (See his statement on 4/6 about "Brazil being a normally neutral member of NATO," etc.)

Anyone can look at an almanac and see that Brazil is not a member of NATO. Therefore the rest of his arguement about the economic pressures being brought on the Brazilian government are meaningless.

Perhaps I am wrong in thinking that intellectual honesty is required to help us understand the world and ourselves any better. Perhaps this thread is more desinged for the "flatworlders" among us.
