According to the debate, they had their reasons. But still – when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.
Is it propaganda if it’s true?
Technically it can be. Propaganda isn’t propaganda because it’s false, but because it’s one-sided and selective.
In my defence (and okay, it’s a very limited and crappy defence) my post said “According to the debate, they had their reasons. But still – when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.”
So I sort of presented a balanced argument. Not a very balanced one, but I did present an attempt at putting America and Israel’s side, even if it was a half-arsed one.
I don’t think what you said was propaganda, I’m just being pedantic.
Most propaganda is essentially truthful.
