Paul Conroy, Syria Conflict, and Pipeline Sabotage
Freelance photojournalist Paul Conroy's media appearances are analyzed for specific messaging regarding the conflict in Homs, Syria. The hosts suggest that the "massacre" narrative is being used to mask the strategic importance of blowing up pipelines in the Baba Amr neighborhood. They posit that French and Russian interests (Total and Gazprom) are clashing with Anglo-American objectives over the Leviathan gas field.
