Al Qaeda in Iraq is a US run PSYOPS program to bullshit the American people?
 Advertisements [?]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_operations

Psychological Operations (PSYOP, PSYOPS), are techniques used by military and police forces to influence a target audience's emotions, motives, objective reasoning, and behavior. Target audiences can be governments, organizations, groups, and individuals, and are used in order to induce confessions, or reinforce attitudes and behaviors favorable to the originator's objectives. These are sometimes combined with black operations or false flag tactics.

This concept has been used by military institutions throughout history, but it is only since the twentieth century that it has been accorded the organizational and professional status it enjoys now.

The word is commonly used by governments, such as the United States, who do not wish to use the term propaganda, which would mar their image. The word propaganda has very negative connotations, and by calling it psychological operations instead, people are much more likely to support it, where they would be unlikely to support the use of "propaganda". This euphemistic naming scheme is ironically an example of psychological operations -- i.e. using psychological techniques to persuade a large number of people to support something that they wouldn't normally support.

I can't handle that much crazy by myself, so I'll leave it for the forum to break down.

It's like I explained to you earlier blitz...the closer they get to the election...the crazier they get.  They let their veneer of civility slip and you see how the real modern Liberal thinks.

This is what you get.
Liberalism Is The Philosophy Of The Stupid

The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years.  The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Is this for real?
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

The definition of PsyOps is.

But it would appear that the DUmmie has added their own title for their own bullsh*t reason.

30. I would list you all the goofy conspiracy theories that are proven wrong
 Edited on Wed Apr-09-08 02:59 PM by Snarkturian Clone
but it would exceed the bandwidth of the entire internet, expecially if I list the same things 3 times like you did (as you did with watergate and iran/contra).

Don't bring this conspiracy bullshit to this board. That garbage belongs on infowars/prisonplanet blogs. I've watched all the Alex Jones movies which talk about most of the things you mention above because I think they're funny, but never in a million years would I take them seriously.

CTers don't belong in the democratic party... it ruins the credibility and integrity of our goals. You can have your own party and call it the Shitbird ****tard Party. Run your heroes Ron Paul and Alex Jones.

NNN0LHI you ignorant slut. Don't you know that the United States of America is an English PSYOP started by King George in 1776? You see, on understanding more fully the actual size and scope of the New World (realative to the "small island off the coast of France" that is England) the USA was created to act as a sort of dummy corporation that England uses to maintain their Empire and their control of the seas. That's why "we" didn't enter WWI or WWII until the UK was threatened and why the USA fights today to maintain the British drawn maps of the world. (duh!) Seriously, NNN0LHI... buddy. Our two party system keeps us at eachothers throats while the real strings are being pulled in Buckingham Palace by the Queen! Wake up!

7. The entire "Iraq War" is a psyops progam on Americans...
   
The "surge" is a psyops program. It is a scam to keep the Congress shoveling money into this criminal enterprise.

Hey if roughly 4800 hundred mentally ill people believe that they number well over 100,000 and a mainstream America, this ain't that far a stretch.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
