Is the media behind the hysteria ? Is false expert necessary in a propaganda war ?
Apparently.

Look at the Parade of Foolsâ„¢.

Not one of the so-called "experts" who were retired generals and colonels had never seen a nuclear device, and yet they were so certain Iraq was full of them.

The standards in Europe vary greatly.

I personally wish the US would adopt European standards with respect to libel, slander, defamation, and also their standards as they apply to commercial advertising, especially political advertising and such.

Generally speaking, laws in the Euro-States are written such that any claims you make must not be fallacious and must be able to be factually substantiated. It's a matter for a jury to decide if the facts your present are really facts and not just bleating and parroting nonsense.

Not hysterically...
