The term 'Islamofascism' wasn't coined for nothing, it was to serve a peculiar propaganda purpose for launching and supporting a war policy and it did for a while till the fog cleared. Not surprising that so called popular media of ours was gullible and willing enough to buy into administration's rationale and dropped its skepticism.

Following vid was posted by another member in FP and goes in depth on media manipulation and collusion when it comes supporting certain policies, this one is in the context of Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Lengthy but worth a watch to understand subtleties of media terminology and accents and their role in news/propaganda marketing and how they are used to manage public perceptions.


There is a bit of Chomsky in this and a bit of Fisk so that may turn you off the whole vid. Don't let it! Media manipulation and disinformation should be the focus. Its a long one but please watch the whole thing before you send abusive posts my way. :)
