New Video Describing How Government Is To Use Propaganda (Lies) Against Us

Has our government passed a law giving them the authority to manipulate the media we are watching today?

Was Sandy Hook their first test run?

Do your own homework. Here is a Video to help you get started. The text is included below for you to follow while you watch this video.

 The Pentagon spends some $4 billion a year to sway public opinion already, and it was recently revealed by USA Today the DoD spent $202 million on information operations in Iraq and Afghanistan last year.

In an apparent retaliation to the USA Today investigation, the two reporters working on the story appear to have been targeted by Pentagon contractors, who created fake Facebook pages and Twitter accounts in an attempt to discredit them.

(In fact, a second amendment to the authorization bill — in reaction to the USA Today report — seeks cuts to the Pentagon’s propaganda budget overseas, while this amendment will make it easier for the propaganda to spread at home.)
