Has anyone been watching CNN tonight? Majority of the content has shifted to the anti-war perspective.

They just had a "town hall" type discussion group with a studio audience that were given the opportunity to ask questions. The whole thing heavily reinforced the fact that a majority of the public is against Syrian intervention, and plenty of time was given to many great reasons why we shouldn't go to war. One woman in the audience asked what gave the U.S the right after using napalm and white phosphorous ourselves in Iraq. There was a Syrian couple that supported Assad, and a few other people who agreed we shouldn't be getting involved with their civil war regardless of our "red line" policy. I was pleasantly surprised by it all.

It appears that a decent amount of House representatives are actually listening to their constituents (everyone is talking about how 99% of the calls they receive are anti-war). I'm actually beginning to think the public has a chance of beating the military-industrial complex here, as they did recently in British Parliament. Am I being overly optimistic? You guys still think this is a virtual certainty at this point?

Of course, as I type this, McCain is on with Anderson Cooper talking about why we should get involved...

I don't think it's a certainty at all. The establishment is losing credibility with breathtaking speed. I speak with "regular" people all the time many of whom are flag waving apple pie and baseball types and they're unanimous in their utter contempt not only for the Syria issue, but for the bottom feeding propaganda purveyors that call themselves "news"

I really think they overplayed their hand here. Obama needs to retreat and go lame duck while we shift the narrative back to the shitfucking NSA wiping their ass with the constitution and the bill of rights.

I am worried about the 9/11 type false flag event at home once Congress defeats the plan to attack Syria.

Alex Jones believes there will be an incident involving a nuke, possibly in South Carolina. He's generally nuts, but I wonder if he might be onto something. Scary.

Not sure the false flag theory of the nuke in SC, or an Influenza H7N9 outbreak in region III are credible.

My personal concern is a series of cyber attacks in the late fall / early winter that will shut down commerce and be the smoke screen for economic collapse. "They" blame the attacks on Syrian Electronic Army and away we go to war.

I wouldn't worry too much. He is generally nuts.

My Facebook is full of baby pictures and vacation photos. Once in a while I'll post a little subversion, but not full on StormCloudsGathering stuff.

My biggest fear atm is that when they lose their Syria initiative, they'll simply false flag the fuck out of the homeland again.

Which makes me think of a random phrase "america was founded by terrorists for terrorists"

2  comrade_zhukov 2013-09-06

Never heard that one. I always sorta pictured them as adventurous Indiana Jones type guys who were sick of being lorded over by incestuous royal retards.

Of course I'm probably just indoctrinated to believe that. Feel free to school me.

BC2?

1  yahoo_bot 2013-09-06

Yes, but they can stage a big false flag, shot a missile into their own ships and say Assad did it and now we have to invade, etc...

They still have options, albeit limited options and they are cornered from all sides, but this means they can stage a big false flag and we need to be on the lookout.

1  comrade_zhukov 2013-09-06

Yep. That's essentially my point, although I'd be surprised if the false flag is directed at a hard target.

A clever time to change from the documentary,The Flag, to a theatric "town hall" special during Monday night football. When does CNN have its least viewers? During the season opening game of the NFL.

It's an ebb and flow tactic to throw you off in my opinion... pro to anti to pro to anti, it blurs the lines and makes them look more non-biased, I see it in british papers all the time when they're losing the battle... or atleast that's my opinion

I don't watch CNN.

America decides it "wants" to get into another war when America is pissed about the nsa. Americans say "no" to war. The government "listens". The people "prevented" a war. The public "wins". The show goes on.

2  [deleted] 2013-09-06

No, the spin machine is in HIGH GEAR. When about 90 percent (according to scientific surveys) of the population opposes going to war, it's hardly a "win" when 55% of the content on one channel is mildly against fighting another war.

2  Bartiemus 2013-09-06

I think they realise if they crank the propaganda machine to hard most people will understand it for what it is bull shit.

I mean if even my parents who are 50 and 45 know the US is lying through their teeth and relazie their ultimate goal is Iran I take that as a sign that people are finally waking up?

Yes this actually is a great thing....

If the government goes for a false flag now it will be extremely blatant as to the cause..

1  dragonboltz 2013-09-06

It depends. A massive false flag would still have the desired effect. A population in fear of war will be easy to control.

How convienient since the Chinese ships rolled in.

you people are aware of the Bric? , the Bassel 3 accords, and the GCR?....no? you're not. well you'll find out...did you like the way the Putski had that little Bric meeting before g20, without bammy, did you like the way bammy showed up alone? Just the way he is going after Syria? all of it connected my pretties

I do not know some of the items you are referring to, but would really appreciate some further information? Any details are greatly appreciated.

Aww a new age poof imitator, how cute.

1  cccpcharm 2013-09-06

well all I can say is that we could use someone like you on board, based on my readings you seem to have skill sets related to advanced computed knowledge.

ps, I really don't have any personal love for "new age", but hey they are free to be birkenstock wearing crystal loving mung bean eating hippies if they want to.

We're all on board, pay attention.

look, I'm all for progress and spreading knowledge, but truth be told, we shouldn't have to do it. A lazy, uninformed, scared public has allowed the sociopaths take over, and dictate to them how they should live. I spread information and try to inform people, but they will do what they want. Its much easier to live in ignorance that to confront the scary truth.

See: cognitive dissonance

1  KingBasten 2013-09-06

It's rather easy to say this. Whenever someone has stumbled on what seems to be a great, overarching truth, one can simply say "hah but this is what they want you to believe".

At some point I think you have to accept your limitations, call their bluff and start working with what you know and with what you've got (or not, ofcourse).
