Tonight's Alex Jones show, 28th October, opened with Jones with, in his own words, an epiphany, speaking emotionally about a video he had seen the previous day of two children horrifically injured in Sirte, Libya. One had their lower jaw completely blow away, the other had most of one of their legs missing.
The video, not embedded because it is so graphically disturbing, but linked below was uploaded on 9th October - almost three weeks ago - and was shared by many, myself included.
Perhaps the fact that it has taken so long for this to get Jones' attention is an indication of the disconnect between Team InfoWars and the rest of the world. It's a perpetual gripe of Jones that it is impossible to get his message through to people - in fact he suggested using this very video as a vehicle for that purpose.
But, as this clearly demonstrates, it's a two way street. It doesn't seem to get through Jones that maybe there is something about him (and the style of InfoWars) which, though it may have been successful in raising his profile thus far, is now the obstacle which the people he seeks to reach cannot overcome. If it isn't Jones belligerent blunderbuss mouth, it's Paul Joseph Watson's sneering condescending Young Conservative attitude to anybody who may have so much as had their verruca treated on the NHS.
Time to change tack, boys, you are living in a media bubble disconnected from all but your fan base.
