I've looked at life from both sides now Hypnotists, magicians, politicians, sloganeers and propagandists succeed or fail depending on how well they enchant people with illusions. "The Israelis made their desert bloom." - Zionist illusion "There is no need to argue with the masses, slogans are much more effective. Slogans are like strong drinks to people. - Joseph Goebbels "The Israelis built the only industrialized economy in the entire Middle East." - Israeli slogan "Propaganda must limit itself to a few themes and repeat them incessantly." - Adolph Hitler "The Israelis built the only liberal democracy in the Middle East." - Illusionist chant "Propaganda is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state." - Noam Chomsky "The Middle East conflict is not about Israel's occupation of the territories; it is about the refusal of the Arabs to make peace with Israel, which is an inevitable by-product of their desire to destroy it." Zionist propaganda "... Effective propaganda must limit its points to a few and these points must be repeated until even the last member of the audience understands what is meant by them." - Adolph Hitler "The Israelis treated the Arabs who remained in Israel well. To this day the very large Arab minority, which lives inside the state of Israel, has more rights and privileges than any other Arab population in the entire Middle East." - Disinformation magic by David Horowitz "... the rank and file are usually much more primitive than we imagine. Propaganda must therefore always be essentially simple and repetitious." - Joseph Goebbels Consider the next two quotations, with a shift in venue from Israel to America, together: "The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly... it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over." - Joseph Goebbels "See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda." - George W. Bush Here's why hype has worked for the Zionists, for Carl Rove, for the neo-conservatives and, until his lies started to catch up with him, for George W. Bush: "The essence of propaganda consists in winning people over to an idea so sincerely, so vitally, that in the end they succumb to it utterly and can never escape from it." - Joseph Goebbels The scientist Carl Sagan referred to essentially the same effect on the public: "One of the saddest lessons of history is this: if we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. The bamboozle has captured us. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back." - Carl Sagan Finally, a word from the master craftsman's first protégé: "Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way round, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise." - Adolf Hitler Who are the later protégés? Consider the observation of a master visionary: "Blinding ignorance does mislead us. O! Wretched mortals, open your eyes!" - Leonardo da Vinci Source: Al Jazeera Readers have left 3 comments.

I was fully aware of all this latest information. I feel this should be sent to all Americans who have been conned by the Zionist Lobby and Neo-cons and how these groups are responsible for the hatred towards the American Administration

who's the bully and who's the innocent?
As an American of Jewish decent, I am grateful for the freedom and opportunity to escape the small minded fear-based acceptance of angry agenda. It's so easy to know what's wrong with this Jew or that politician or this Islamic or that Jewish action. I will, under directions from my culture of freedom, continue to keep a human picture of Palestinians and Iraqis, mommies, daddies, marriage, scholarship, charity, these are not Jewish or Brittish or Islamist concepts. I cry for the folks who accept ignorant teenage angst exhibited by officials or extremests of all groups who are comfortable with another group's pain no matter the advantage for themselves. Concensus building, understanding, dialogue, caring for each other as humans, not blaming each other for all the ills in the world, knowing the conspiratory theories are invented where knowledge is too slow to emerge and advantage is singular and ego-based, rather than harmonic and fluid as natural systems. Maybe turmoil is inevitable, as hurricanes and tornadoes and avalanches and eruptions. But as an element of the universe, it should be within our power to know there is something better than winning or not losing, that playing, surviving, competeing, BEING is the key, not hatred, disappointment and bad info ! I am an idealist, went to Woodstock, worked in the school system and manage my own private business. I have worked positively with people of every age and from every culture. I am the norm, not a President, prime minister Imam or Rabbi. I have been taught to appreciate the values of others. I'm positive we all can live next door to each other, that economics would follow us in profit if we "fought" to get along The new fight- to get along despite previous experience to the contrary. I overcame dislexia and now teach the elements of language that illuminate the peculiarities that many extremely bright and creative individuals have not taken the time or had the balance to recognize the fundamental elements of . As they follow my example, sounding and therefore moving to the side of their brains that organize, they establish better habits which allow them to focus on word "chunks" and trust there is a formula for successful understanding. Practicing the pieces they took time with me to consider as essential, they experience the phenomenon of successful fluid decoding and word building for spelling. I suggest that this opportunity to experience success is way more possible than the angry among us believe. Whether we are understanding language or culture, survival or jihad, the more we take time to balance and see the enemy as relevant, worthy as ourselves to equal opportunity, and practice building together feeling the feelings people who get along feel, then history might grow in another direction. I will remain positive because I know of many projacts where Jews and Muslims, Israelis and Iranians work together and trust each other, beyond the rhetoric and pain of doubt. They share common hopes and enemies (ignorance of disease causes or hunger) and keep growing more connected as they live lives that run way more parralel than the violent activities captured and depicted by the media. I'll focus on what we have in common, no matter how much this leader or that tells me how opposite we are so that I'll vote for or read their account. I am here and writing because I sensed that this is a nonviolent opportunity to share hope as well as the problems and headlines of trouble. I love life, not winning. I do not wish for an Islam free world, and I get good and tired of my own cultures if I am closedin by it. Open my mind by opening yours. Know that there are many many Islamic and Jewish people who would do anything to get along, not win. tHERE IS NO WIN WHERE THE LOOSER LOSES THE OPPORTUNITY TO COMPETE. So, if you wish to build a today and tomorrow based on what we have in common, choose me as an example of American Jewery. I'm looking for all people who wish to help me prove we are all related, not separated. Thanks for reading my rant !
