Do you think Sony should force this guy to resign right away?

Why a foreigner at the head of Sony, to begin with? Was not it Sony that conspired against the DPRK in that cyber-attack false-flag?

Sony CEO on Middle East: Let Them All Kill Each Other (Except Israel)

00:14 21.04.2015

The CEO of Sony called the Middle East a "gigantic mess," and said if it was not for Israel's presence in the region, the United States would "let them all kill each other," according to emails published by WikiLeaks.

The secrets-spilling group last week republished hundreds of thousands of documents and emails from the hack last fall of Sony Pictures Entertainment. The massive collection includes emails CEO Michael Lynton wrote in response to an October 2014 Washington Post article about President Barack Obama's foreign policy in Syria. A relative forwarded Lynton the article with the comment "Brilliant."

"Let them all kill each other!" Lynton wrote in a response email.

"Face it the entire thing is a gigantic mess. And if it were not for Israel, we would let them all kill each other and wait for the dust to settle."

"We don’t need the oil, and I am not sure it is worth the time or effort to try and broker the nations at the edge. It is a dog’s breakfast plain and simple and I am not sure there is any role for America here."

"On reflection," Lynton added, "Israel may be in the catbird seat. Let them all kill each other around the Jewish state and pick up the pieces after they have exhausted themselves."

Lynton's emails also show his active participation in both social and professional events centered on pro-Israel policy.

In August, 2013, he RSVP’d yes to "an intimate salon-style discussion" at the home of Israeli-born American actress Natalie Portman regarding the Israeli conflict. The event was hosted by Jeremy Ben-Ami, the president of J Street, a pro-Israel political group based in the United States.

The next day, Portman sent Lynton an email with links to websites that contain "accurate Israel and world Jewry journalism."

Just a few months later, in February, 2014, Lynton RSVP'd yes to an "intimate dinner" at the home of Israeli producer Arnon Milchan, where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was among the guests.

Lynton also leveraged his connections to exercise political influence and promote his pro-Israel beliefs.

In June 2014, Lynton and Richard Stengel, the State Department Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, discussed a joint Washington-Hollywood venture that had come from "the secretary’s office," according to leaked emails.

While the two were discussing actors who may take part in the event – including Ben Affleck, Shonda Rhimes, and others – Lynton noted that he "would also include Natalie Portman as she has just done a movie in Israel and is very involved there."

Lynton and Stengel frequently emailed about planning phone chats and meeting up. They were scheduled to meet in person at least once, on December 14, 2014, according to an email from Lynton's assistant.

Stengel floated to Lynton, who also oversees Sony's music labels, the idea of staging a type of "We Are The World" concert as an anti-Islamic State message. He suggested using hip-hop stars and Muslim artists from around the world.

Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie wrote "We Are The World" and organized a celeb-filled recording session to raise money for Africa relief in 1985.

Jews are like that, their is a reason why they faced so many pogroms and genocides

Its nothing new

What they dont realise is that the muslim population is 1.7 billion and will grow to be the biggest faith over the coming decades

Its increasing in population by hundreds of millions each year

As horrendous as the wars in eg Syria are they are a necessity to wake up the region from the old order, the death toll isnt a patch on the overall population increase


Israel is now around 20% muslim/arab and growing quick, they already out number the jews across Gaza, Israel and the West Bank

What they dont realise is that the muslim population is 1.7 billion and will grow to be the biggest faith over the coming decades

He is talking about Middle East, not Muslims.

Stop involving Muslims in this Arab mess of epic proportions. ISIS is arab creation, not a Muslim creation. They are Arab neo nazi nationalists.

Islam has been corrupted by middle easterners.

Utterly shameful, he should be sacked, and anyone else involved should receive the same punishment. We can't have people like this be part of Sony Corp.

Now I more strongly believe that having a guy with such racist mindset, it would not be surprising if Sony connived with the US secret agencies to stage the Sony hacking false flag against the DPRK.


The US regime uses every means, soft and hard, to manipulate, lie and deceive, including movies, music, celebrities, academicians, and the media.


Entire Western Media is a Troll Army
19:03 20.04.2015
Finian Cunningham

The frantic spell of Western media behaviour could be a case-study in how it is centrally manipulated with a political agenda and thought-control. Editors at major Western media corporations are evidently following a political line cast by Washington and its European allies.

The multi-billion-dollar Western news media networks are replete with an unquestioning, unwavering anti-Russian agenda. This agenda is recklessly inflaming international tensions to the point of inciting further conflict and even an all-out global war.

The roll of dishonour includes "stellar" corporate names, from CNN, New York Times, Washington Post, BBC, Financial Times, Guardian, France 24, Deutsche Welle, and many more. It is a veritable troll army marching in lockstep with their governments' agenda of disinformation.

America Goes Large: Obama Wants Huge Budget for His Anti-Russian Troll Army

In unison, they are functioning as a global ministry of propaganda.

Reputable Russian news media have not indulged in the unquestioning Western narrative asserting that Russian aggression is the cause of the entire Ukrainian conflict. In other words, the Russian news industry is providing proper journalistic services.

Russian media do not talk blindly about Russia's "annexation of Crimea". Russian media have refused to toe the Western media line that, against voluminous evidence, denies the Neo-Nazi character of the Western-backed Kiev regime. Therefore, the Western reasoning goes, the Russian media are a Kremlin propaganda tool and Moscow has despatched a "Troll Army" to disseminate disinformation. How richly ironic is that?

Typically, Western claims of "Kremlin propaganda" are just more assertion layered upon assertion, unsupported by any evidence. The "evidence" is simply that the Russian media do not peddle the mainstream Western viewpoint. So with totalitarian-like mentality, the Western conclusion is that Russian media "must be" propagandist.

Are You Scared Now? Congress Declares US Losing Media War With Russia

A US Congressional hearing last week tendentiously described how Russia is "weaponising information" and declared that Russia is "winning the information war". No evidence is presented, just more provocative assertions piled up on more provocative assertions.

Paradoxically, the charge of propaganda and media trolls is actually substantiated if applied to the gamut of Western corporate news media.

We are not talking about clandestine media impostors, bloggers and cyber-trolls on the payroll of the CIA or MI6 who infest the media. We are referring to the entire professional media industry — a multi-billion-dollar global industry.

Examples abound. Look how the Western media — lock, stock and barrel — went into a collective hysteria over the public absence of Russian President Vladimir Putin last month. It's astoundingly weird when you look back at that frenzied episode.

Putin returned to normal work after not being seen in public for over a week, and he has since continued presidential duties, brushing off the brouhaha. Likewise, the Western media seem to have forgotten their fit of madness, even though at the time American and European outlets had gone into a paroxysm over Putin. The madness has subsided, but only a few weeks ago, the Western news media were uniformly transfixed with feverish rumours and speculation on Putin's absence. Was it a "palace coup?" or "was he dead?" Was he receiving "plastic surgery?" or had his partner "given birth to a baby in Switzerland?"

This frantic spell of Western media behaviour, based on that incident alone, could be a case-study in how it is centrally manipulated with a political agenda and thought-control. Editors at major Western media corporations are evidently following a political line cast by Washington and its European allies. That line is: demonise Putin and destabilise Russia. It may be a subtle form of control, and partly also down to lazy follow-the-herd editorial instinct, but nevertheless the behaviour amounts to spectacular control. And this in a supposedly "free thinking, independent" industry.

Or take the assassination of Russian opposition figure Boris Nemtsov in Moscow last month and then this week the spate of assassinations in the Ukrainian capital Kiev. When Nemtsov was gunned down near the Kremlin again the Western media went into frenzied overdrive, as did Western governments. Wall-to-wall "coverage" played allegations and speculation that somehow the shooting was carried out by the Russian authorities to silence a dissident voice.

US President Barack Obama's calls for a "transparent criminal investigation" were amplified by Western news outlets who openly speculated with unabashed sensationalism that Putin "may have ordered the contract-killing".

The US State Department's "deputy for coups" Victoria Nuland, while testifying before Congress about "thousands of Russian troops having invaded Ukraine", also presumed to interfere in Russian internal affairs when she "demanded" a criminal probe into the Nemtsov shooting "that meets international standards" to "find the shooter and who ordered it". The latter was a scurrilous swipe at Putin.

Contrast that hyped-reaction with the relative dearth of concern over the contract-killings of three opposition figures in Kiev this week.

One of the victims was well-known newspaper editor Oles Buzina; the other was a former senior lawmaker in the Ukrainian parliament. All victims had been outspoken and effective critics of the Western-backed regime. Their killings follow a spate of at least four other suspicious deaths among opposition figures associated with the ousted government of Viktor Yanukovych, who was deposed last February by Western-backed Neo-Nazi demagogues and their SS-styled paramilitaries.

Those combined deaths point to an orchestrated campaign of political murders to snuff out critical voices.

Extraordinary Double Standard: West Silent Over Murders of Kiev's Opponents

However, the Western media's response to the political killings in Kiev, compared with the shooting of Boris Nemtsov, has been studiously muted. There are no high-profile calls for "transparent investigations" and no innuendoes against the Western-backed President Petro Poroshenko, or other members of the Kiev regime.

Indeed, the Western media in its relatively scant coverage of the recent Kiev killings have perversely inferred that the victims were either deserving of their fate, or that the murders were carried out by Russian agents in a bid to smear the Kiev regime and further destabilise the country. Talk about not dealing with the facts!

France 24's correspondent Gulliver Cragg told the news anchor in Paris that his Kiev "sources" described the victim Oles Buzina as a "polemicist" (inferring trouble-maker) and that it was "wrong to even describe Buzina as a journalist".

That broadcast by France 24 is a disgrace to journalism, ethics and international law. In effect, it purports to say "Buzina deserved it".

By the way, it is by no means the first time that France 24's Gulliver Cragg has acted as a shameful mouthpiece for the Kiev regime. Back in May last year following the murder of more than 40 people in the Odessa Customs Building massacre, he alluded to claims that those killings may have been carried out by Russian agents to blacken the Kiev regime. Again, in complete denial of the facts that implicate the Kiev regime as the perpetrators.

Which brings us to the Financial Times' spin on the latest assassinations in Kiev. Its report quotes Kiev's interior ministry advisor Anton Geraschenko as claiming that the "murders were organised by Russian intelligence agencies to create an atmosphere of terror and hysteria in Kiev".

From a Kiev ministry figure that's hardly a statement adhering to "international standards" of criminal investigation.

Additionally, the London-based FT prominently quotes the president, Poroshenko, as suggesting that the killings were also sanctioned from Moscow. With incandescent rage, Poroshenko says that the shootings "played into the hands of our enemies… aimed at destabilising the internal political situation in Ukraine, at discrediting the political choice of the Ukrainian people."

Neither France 24 nor the Financial Times quote people who could more plausibly claim that the murders were the dirty work of the Kiev regime.

We pick those two media outlets merely as examples of the general Western response, not only on the topic of political assassinations in Kiev but on the whole Ukrainian conflict.

Rather than investigating the real political climate under the Western-backed regime in Kiev — Neo-Nazi, anti-Russia, illegal, fascistic, war criminality, proven gangsterism — the Western media swing into denial mode, whitewash mode and disinformation mode to cast aspersions on Moscow.

Western media may pride itself with vain self-congratulating descriptions of "independent news, freedom of thought and expression, fearless defenders of truth" and so on. But the truth is that Western corporate so-called news media are simply this: one giant troll army marching in lockstep with the political agenda of Washington and its coterie of Western allies.

Ukraine and Russia are merely one manifestation among many of the Western media's total propaganda function. That function has been around for decades, but it is only now becoming abundantly transparent.

Western politicians may fret about the Western public being invaded by an alleged Russian troll army and Kremlin propaganda. When the reality is that the Western public is already under oppressive occupation of a troll army — otherwise known as Western corporate "news media".

WikiLeaks Docs: Sony Chiefs Met With Cameron Ahead of Scottish Referendum

17:00 20.04.2015

British Prime Minister David Cameron met with representatives from Sony Pictures just ten weeks before the Scottish independence referendum to discuss the release of a TV show based on Scotland's repression under British rule, documents released by WikiLeaks have revealed.

The release of the 'Outlander' TV series, which depicts among other things, 18th century life in Scotland under British rule, was delayed in the UK, heightening suggestions it was done amid concerns over any nationalistic sentiment it may have generated in the lead up to the independence referendum.

Published by WikiLeaks, the leaked email from Sony Pictures' vice president Keith E. Weaver to other Sony executives made note of a planned meeting with British PM Cameron, where Mr Weaver expressed the "importance" of the TV series to the political situation at the time.

"From a SPE [Sony Pictures Entertainment] perspective, your meeting with Prime Minister Cameron on Monday will likely focus on our overall investment in the U.K. — with special emphasis on the jobs created by Tommy Cooper [the ITV show], the importance of Outlander (i.e., particularly vis-à-vis the political issues in the UK as Scotland contemplates detachment this Fall), and the growth of our channel's business…" the email read.

It had previously been suggested that the delay in the UK release of the series had been politically motivated by those wanting Scotland to remain in the United Kingdom.

WikiLeaks editor in chief Julian Assange said the leaks showed how big business was trying to influence certain decision to suit their own interests.

"This archive shows the inner workings of an influential multinational corporation. It is newsworthy and at the centre of a geopolitical conflict. It belongs in the public domain. WikiLeaks will ensure it stays there."

Both the UK government and Sony representatives have not yet commented on the leaks.

Scottish independence supporters criticized Westminster over its lobbying of foreign governments in the lead up to the referendum, after it had been revealed that more than 30 countries had been contacted in the hope they would call for Scotland to remain in the union.

Assange Reveals UK Spied on Scottish Nationalists During Independence Vote

Despite the allegations, Diana Gabaldon, the American author of the books on which the 'Outlander' series is based on, spoke at an event in Edinburgh in August 2014, saying there was "no evidence" to suggest the referendum was behind the decision to delay screening in Britain.

"There is a lot of talk and speculation as to why the show hasn't been sold to the UK yet. There is public talk, rumor and speculation, but there is absolutely no evidence on which to speculate," she said at the time.

"The most common rumor is that they're holding off until after the referendum on independence, but as far as I know there's no evidence whatsoever to suggest that's true."

Isn't that been always requested of US, not to get involved, the CEO said the same, let middle-eastern countries sort out their own mess...

This Michael Lynton is the CEO of Sony Entertainment and is a board member of Sony Pictures, which are both subsidiary of Sony Corporation. The article fails to state that the CEO and President of Sony Corporation (the Parent Company) is not an American, but a Japanese, Mr. Hirai Kazuo.

As for Lynton, these email revelations are damaging to the company and his racist stance should be basis for him to be ejected from the Board of Sony Pictures, and ejected as CEO of Sony Entertainment.

That makes sense because I was like Sony is Japanese....how could a Japanese company's CEO (and by extension its BOD) say something like that; 'cause everything I've read about Japanese businesses suggests that they are very averse to controversy and confrontation.....heck even the company BODs and ownership make-up is made up of a mix and match of various stakeholders in what is dubbed as 'consensual' Boards. :unsure:

Looks like Sony Pictures' integrity has been breached by its foreign executives that mingle their ideology/nation-based political agenda with business.

That's very detrimental to the overall image of the company.

In Japan, something like this, especially if it involves a major executive in a major company , results in the individual committing suicide -- as a way to salvage any honor. One of the executives in Toyota Motor Corp, several years ago, did just this when it was found out that his department was responsible for the failure to oversee the airbag issue that led to the US fining Japan's Toyota Motor Corp and thus leading to recalls on certain automobiles. I forget the man's name, but he was the VP in planning and development --- anyways he disemboweled himself as a modus operandi --- in Japanese we call it Hara Kiri.

I doubt Mr. Lynton will be doing anything like that. Most likely he will be fired, and will claim unemployment.

Tho i would prefer he did do the honor of disemboweling himself. It would save us the trouble.
