"In formally articulating a casus belli, a government typically lays out its reasons for going to war, its intended means of prosecuting the war, and the steps that others might take to dissuade it from going to war."
Yeah...
Our judgement on this particular issue is that "western" media haven't the capacity or intellectual philosophy to even perceive the reality of what they are seeing, let alone reason with it.
The "western" media live in a business model of political division, because it is profitable for their companies to operate in and within.
Our message to "western" media is make the most of your platforms, hire extra reporters, make documentaries, dedicate extra resources to producing compelling content, rather than filling your space up with 10 minute tripe that no-one cares about, travel and integrate with your surroundings, do hour long pieces that go into enormous and enriching detail, educate, inform, enliven your audiences.
In other words, spend, spend, spend.
