This classified CIA analysis from March, outlines possible PR-strategies to shore up public support in Germany and France for a continued war in Afghanistan. After the dutch government fell on the issue of dutch troops in Afghanistan last month, the CIA became worried that similar events could happen in the countries that post the third and fourth largest troop contingents to the ISAF-mission. The proposed PR strategies focus on pressure points that have been identified within these countries. For France it is the sympathy of the public for Afghan refugees and women. For Germany it is the fear of the consequences of defeat (drugs, more refugees, terrorism) as well as for Germany's standing in the NATO. The memo is a recipe for the targeted manipulation of public opinion in two NATO ally countries, written by the CIA. It is classified as Confidential / No Foreign Nationals.

Fall of the Republic: The Presidency of Barack H Obama - full video
When the New World Order has fallen out of the books of conspiracy theories and into the mouths of leading politicians, should it not be renamed conspiracy truth? As capitalism reaches its obvious conclusion, competition gives way to monopolies, choice is an illusion and individual wealth is destroyed by banksters. Welcome to corporate communism, welcome to engineered disasters, welcome to controlled slavery. What's the point? Control of the whole ecosystem - including the carbon atoms in your body. Enjoy the future.
Perhaps the most interesting section is around 90 minutes into the film. It shows how easy it is to manipulate humans through social engineering. Propaganda works, and it works by massaging the human unconscious without rational interference. This is hugely depressing and the only antidote is to be informed - to switch that rational mind back on. The difficulty with switching it on is to first be aware enough that it has been unplugged. Wake up to the future.
