CAN BROADCASTING STOP WARS? A THOUGHT FROM 1934
Posted by STEVE M on
This is a very apt question for events currently unfolding on the World stage - Can broadcasting stop war it asks.........
Since the publication of this headlined article from 1934, apart from the current one which is not a war but a 'Special Military Operation', there have been the following 27 flagrations: -
Arab Revolt in Palestine, 1936-1939
Jewish insurgency in Mandatory Palestine, 1944-1948
Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, 1948 onwards
Vietnam War, 1955–1975
Indonesian Confrontation, 1963–1966
Sierra Leone Civil War, 1991–2002
Kosovo War, 1998–1999
Libya Conflict, 2011–present
Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS, 2014–present
If only the reality was a case of once bitten, 26 times shy.
