We all live in the unreal world of \u201cNewspeak\u201d used by the Global Power Elite to control our minds.<\/p>\n<p>Man gets confused when things that happen around him and to him, or which are done in his name, cannot be properly grasped, understood or made sense of. Normally, such confusion leads to inaction. If you\u2019re lost at night in the middle of a forest but you can still see the stars, then a bit of astronomical knowledge will at least quickly tell you which way is north. But if it\u2019s cloudy or you\u2019re ignorant of the constellations in starry heaven, then you might as well light up a fire and do nothing until dawn\u2026. You\u2019re Lost!<\/p>\n<p>Today, mainstream media coverage uses programmed distortion, confusion, even outright lying when its Money Power masters order it to support the \u201cofficial story\u201d on any major political, economic or financial process. When looked at closely, however, the \u201cofficial story\u201d of things can be seen to be inaccurate, misleading, often hardly believable if not downright stupid.<\/p>\n<p>Examples of this: Iraq\u2019s inexistent WMD\u2019s leading to the invasion and destruction of that country; global mega-banker bail-outs with taxpayer money; irrational US diplomatic, military, financial and ideological alignment to Israeli objectives; \u201cwe-killed-Osama-Bin-Laden-and-dumped-his-body-into-the-sea\u201d; and the wide array of \u201cwhodunits\u201d surrounding 9\/11 in New York and Washington, 7\/7 in London, the AMIA\/Israeli Embassy attacks in Buenos Aires in 1992\/1994, and \u2013 of course\u00a0\u2013 that all time favorite: who shot JFK\u2026?<\/p>\n<p>These are but a few of the paradigmatic cases that have at least served to trigger millions of people to wake up and think with their own minds instead of the mainstream media\u2019s! But unfortunately the vast majority of such cases are not so clear-cut. The vast majority of Newspeak lies are like knots, difficult to untie as they carry built-in complexity resembling Gordian Knots. And, as with all Gordian Knots, you need to cut right through them, and this requires swift and precise action plus a good measure of intellectual courage.<\/p>\n<p>To give an example of what we say, let\u2019s take a quick look at how a \u201cNewspeak\u201d operation works. It requires sequential planning, it requires time, it requires proper logistics, it requires \u201ccredible\u201d spokespeople in public and private sectors, it requires choosing the right words and images at the right time and in the right circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s say the Global Power Elite\u00a0\u2013 working through the governments of the US, UK, EU into which they are deeply embedded, and joint-venturing with a wide array of media outlets, defense companies, oil companies, security and construction companies, and powerful lobbies\u00a0\u2013 decide that they wish to overrun and destroy a specific country\u2026 Libya, for example\u2026<\/p>\n<p>How do they ensure that \u201cthe international community\u201d will just quietly look on (except for the still relatively small minority of voices that are increasingly raising hell against them)?<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Seven-Step Mainstream Media Country Destruction Guide <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. First, they start by targeting a country ripe for \u201cRegime Change\u201d, and brand it a <strong>\u201crogue state\u201d<\/strong>; then\u2026<\/p>\n<p>2. They arm, train, finance local terrorist groups through CIA, MI6, Mossad, Al-Qaeda (a CIA operation), drug cartels (often CIA operations) and call them <strong>\u201cfreedom fighters\u201d<\/strong>; then\u2026<\/p>\n<p>3. As mock UN Security Council Resolutions are staged that rain death and destruction upon millions of civilians, they call it <strong>\u201cUN sanctions to protect civilians\u201d<\/strong>; then\u2026<\/p>\n<p>4. They spread flagrant lies through their \u201cnewsrooms\u201d and paid journalists, and call it <strong>&#8220;the international community\u2019s concerns expressed by prestigious spokespeople and analysts\u2026\u201d<\/strong> then\u2026<\/p>\n<p>5. They bomb, invade and begin to control the target country and call it <strong>\u201cliberation\u201d<\/strong>; then\u2026<\/p>\n<p>6. As the target country falls fully under their control, they impose <strong>\u201cthe kind of democracy that <\/strong><em><strong>we<\/strong><\/em><strong> want to see\u201d<\/strong> (as Hillary Clinton before visiting Egypt and Tunisia on March 10, 2011), until finally\u2026<\/p>\n<p>7. They steal appetizing oil, mineral and agricultural reserves handing them over to Global Power Elite corporations, and impose unnecessary private banking debt and call it <strong>\u201cforeign investment and reconstruction.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Their keynotes are: <strong>Force and Hypocrisy<\/strong>, which they have used time and again to destroy entire countries, always in the name of \u201cfreedom\u201d, \u201cdemocracy\u201d, \u201cpeace\u201d and \u201chuman rights\u201d.
