Homs, Syria, 24th February 2012: American journalist, Marie Colvin, was assassinated by the illegitimate state of Israel (via its proxies in the TO).
‘A Private War’ (a new film starring Rosamund Pike as the eye-patch wearing war correspondent) covers Colvin’s career reporting from armed-conflicts around the world for The Sunday Times, and explores her journalistic MO–to approach every story from a human interest perspective. Which, from her point of view, meant supporting ‘the rebels’ in almost every war.
Marie Colvin never met an insurgency she didn’t like. And was often embedded with Western backed separatists / agents of regime-change; everywhere from East Timor, to Kosovo to Sri-Lanka (where she lost an eye in the crossfire between Tamil Tiger militants and Sri-Lankan troops).
Now ‘A Private War’ may tell you something vaguely resembling the truth about her life in the Murdoch media. But you can bet your bottom Shekel, that Jewish Hollywood will never tell you the truth about her death.

For director Matthew Heineman (‘Cartel Land’) promotes the U.S.-Israeli propaganda version of events (i.e. that Colvin was killed by the ‘Assad regime’). Whereas in reality, Marie Colvin was killed by the Netanyahu regime, for an article she wrote about Israel’s top-secret bio-weapons programme:
Israel is Developing ‘Ethnic Bomb’ for Growing Biological Weapons Arsenal
‘A Private War’ makes no mention of the aforecited exposé, so it’s important to know that Colvin’s finest hour as an investigative journalist, was a damning indictment of Tel Aviv’s heinous crimes / homicidal psychopathy.
Marie Colvin definitely deserves a biopic, but ‘A Private War’ isn’t that film: Its a film for journalism’s ruling elite. A congratulatory round of drinks, that soon turns into a bitter binge of self-aggrandising pomposity.
A proper Marie Colvin movie should be based around her game-changing article about Jewry’s sinister WMD programme, to leave it out is the equivalent of making a film about Woodward & Bernstein without Watergate, or a documentary about Julian Assange without Wikileaks.
Generally speaking, Marie Colvin was a standard corporate media type: rather self-important with a neo-liberal agenda. Not as bad as the likes of Christiane Amanpour or John Simpson, but not that far off either. She got it wrong about Syria, but was spot on about Israel’s evil agenda in the region. And we should thank her for that, if nothing else.
