Gareth Porter—US Intelligence Undercuts Crucial "Bountygate" Claims
In this segment of By Any Means Necessary hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Gareth Porter, a historian, journalist covering the national security state, and author of "Manufactured Crisis: The Untold Story of the Iran Nuclear Scare," to talk about the rapidly-crumbling narrative accusing Russia of paying off the Taliban to kill US soldiers, why mainstream media tends to take claims from "anonymous US intelligence officials" at face value, and why it appears the story was planted as part of a concerted strategy to put a stop to the end of the War in Afghanistan.
