Axios "news" is just another warmonger press outlet among many.
"But in Axios’ article, the Trump administration official pushed the notion that the U.S., with its nearly $1 trillion-per-year military, could face attacks from the tiny Caribbean nation 90 miles south of Florida because officials there have been preparing defensive capabilities."
A lot of the "U.S." propaganda ops aren't designed to build consensus for their side as much as to break down consensus for our side. They're satisfied as long as the resistance to them remains fragmented and consequently less effective.
The "U.S." new cycle:
AI-generated "victims"
↓
Presidential repost (Truth Social)
↓
Corporate media circulation ("Are these real?")
↓
Prediction markets bet on outcomes ("Will U.S. strike Iran?")
↓
Odds cited as "forecasting truth" by news outlets
↓
More propaganda to move markets / justify positions
↓
Real violence to "validate" the bets
The Warmonger's Post demands that either Iranian negotiators bow down to Trump or be murdered.
"Iran’s leaders must be made to understand that their lives literally depend on reaching a negotiated settlement to Trump’s liking. If they refuse to do so, they will be killed."
Western propaganda is not primarily concerned with persuading people to believe in anything. Its main aim is to make them doubt everything.

After the "U.S." government it is the media that loves war the most.

Once again, the propaganda outlets of the U.S. capitalist state are clamoring for war. Capitalism requires our blood as machines require oil. The capitalist media will always find inventive ways to demand more of it.
It isn't news and entertainment. It is Capitalist State Media.

The New War Times is pure Capitalist State Propaganda.

Even the most modest proposals for reform are intolerable to our wealthy overlords. Their only imperative is to take more and more, with no thought for the consequences to human life.
