In this day of wars in the Middle East and North Africa, propaganda is still the favored tool of the ruling class. By controlling the flow of information, they can control the opinions of many people within society. Most people think newspapers or television when they hear the word propaganda, but it is just as easy to fit altered or biased information in a counter terrorism fiction novel.
Propaganda utilized in the second World War laid the stage for how information is controlled now. While Hitler got some of his ideas from the stories out of ancient Rome, modern governments have been known to use tactics that Hitler perfected. It all starts with graffiti and fliers, moves to radio, and gets perfected on the television screen.
Hitler learned how to use movies and television to his advantage, and this enabled him to reach a much larger audience than had ever been possible. He was already known for giving animated and emotional speeches, but with radio he was able to be heard by those who would have never been able to see him. He could stir a crowd emotionally, and turn them to his way of thinking.
By staging a fire and blaming it on a young Jewish man, Hitler was able to stir his country into a fury of military might. It created a reason for his attack on Poland, and eventually came to be known as World War II. Activists now call this type of attack a false flag, and there are many people all over the world wary of these staged events.
Only twenty years later the Americans were able to utilize the same tactics in order to get the American people behind a war on the communists in Vietnam. Although there was a great deal of opposition to that war, the media by and large hid the truth. By blaming the communists in Vietnam for the sinking of a ship, and claiming that ship belonged to the American Navy, most Americans over the age of 35 were in alignment with the purpose of that war.
There are many who claim that the 2001 attack on the Twin Towers was the most elaborate false flag history has ever seen. They cite the erroneous reporting that took place on that day, the relationships that all eyewitnesses had to media sources, and the nature of the collapse itself. The claims that 9-11 was a false flag attack have divided Americans greatly.
Of course, in keeping with the art of propaganda, it is this social division that actually helps the powers that be keep control of the people. It is possible that this Truth Movement, and even the 1% protests, are themselves only controlled opposition. It is possible that the powers that be are behind both sides of the debate.
It is important for individuals to read everything they can get their hands on, watch news from every source possible, and make up their own minds. The truth is often somewhere in the middle, so it is advised that people avoid the extreme ends of an argument. By utilizing discernment and objectivity, one can make a more legitimate argument.
