This article is what I hope will be the first in a series of articles I plan to write in the future titled "Inconvenient Truths." They are "truths" because the evidence of their veracity is readily available online (for now) to be independently looked up and verified by anyone who cares to do so. They are "inconvenient" because they do not fit the narrative of the modern day mass media, which includes now the "alternative" media. The inconvenient truths I am exposing and reporting on in this article are the truths that challenge the current political narrative of our day stating that the evil axis of enemy nations that are hell bent on destroying the United States and threatening our "national security" are Russia, China, and Iran. Did you know that all of these "terrorist" nations were strong allies of the United States at the end of World War 2? And is there any real evidence today that these former friends and allies of the United States just 80 years ago are today truly our enemies and a threat to our "national security"? My own bias will be evident, as always, because I am one of the few truly "independent" journalists left who is not leveraged, since I receive no funding from anyone to write what I write, and I am free to follow the evidence wherever it leads. If you don't agree with me, that is fine, but I do encourage you to examine the evidence for yourself and do your own research, so that you can either confirm your own opinions and beliefs, or have them challenged by "inconvenient truths" that are still available to the mass public, for now.
