The Wonder and Terror of Propaganda: How Modern Governments Misuse Media to Manipulate the Bewildered Herd

In this article, I will be dissecting Noam Chomsky’s book Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda, in an attempt to answer five questions:

  1. What is a democracy and how does it function?
  2. What is propaganda and why does it exist?
  3. How is our behaviour being shaped by the media?
  4. Who are controlling things behind the scenes?
  5. How can we defend ourselves against malicious propaganda campaigns?

To the Secretary also reveals the disconnect that diplomats face at home, guided by conflicting approaches from multiple Washington stakeholders intent on their own agenda, often unaware of realities on the ground. In an honest assessment of America’s foreign policy challenges, Thompson-Jones describes the deepening gulf between decision makers in Washington and their diplomats in the field. From misinterpreted analyses of anti-Americanism to Washington’s unwillingness to send resources to support diplomatic activities that could make a difference, To the Secretary shows what policymakers can learn from diplomats abroad―and how this can strengthen America’s place in an unstable world.

THE NOOPOLITICS OF THE UNDERWORLD ORDER AND THE HOPE FOR A BETTER WORLD

Nicolas Laos and Christina Florou

PDF (10 Pages)

SUMMARY

The scope of the present paper is to investigate the identity and the dynamics of the major criminal actors of the transnational and the international system as well as to analyze criminalism as an intrinsic and driving force of the established world order.Indeed, we maintain that, due to criminalism,not only is the border between the established world order and the contemporary underworld order blurred, but also there are organic channels of communication/collaboration between the social establishment and the underworld. In this context, we study the creation and global march of what we call here the “Black-Red International,” namely, a postmodern, global network of mobsters, political extremists/terrorists (transcending old dichotomies between the ‘Right’ and the ‘Left’), former spies associated with the historical Nazi and Soviet ‘deep states’ and their secret plans for world domination, autonomous subgroups of several nations’ secret services, and a group of complacently nihilistic businessmen who act as the financial facilitators of this “Black-Red International.”

Kudos to Anonymous who sent this along, and a five-star salute to GetOffTheBS and Attorney/Investigative Journalist Brenda Corpian, for breaking this story that connects the wanna-be assassin of Donald Trump with Mateen and Howell. In the fine print, note that Howell says there were eight groups or over 100 people being trained in the same camp, several being trained as snipers.

Cartels of the Mind: a movie that never was

“Dominoes of the collective begin to fall. The whole rotting structure begins to collapse, a wing here and a wing there, and the robots open their eyes and turn off their cameras.”

If you can’t see the background of a crime, you aren’t seeing the crime, you’re seeing the sensational effects, that’s all.
