There is no doubt that Americans are the best when it comes to marketing anything from cakes to weaponry; as with most things, there is always that element of doubt, like the moon landing being filmed in a studio (yes, I know we tracked the moon landing from Parkes in NSW), but manipulating the populace to achieve an end (like Iraq) is a proven.

Sales are broken up into 4 steps, 1) introduction 2) create a need 3) have a product that addresses that need and 4) take the order.

Sales down in full body imaging at airports … how about a few – well publicised – apprehended plane bombers, like the ‘Underwear Bomber’ plot, the ‘Toothpaste, Shampoo, and Bottled Water Bomber’ plot and the ‘Shoe Bomber’ plot?

All seemingly ‘not the sharpest tool in the shed’ tyes seemingly getting past the ‘fool-proof’ inspections, but definite reasons that countries buy American made full body imagers.

As time passes, we discover things were not as they were presented to us. Is this a sign of a complacent or compliant media?

If you are to believe the USA government, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (alleged al-Qaida mastermind behind 9/11), outwitted the CIA and the NSA, in fcat 16 USA intelligence agencies as well as those of all American allies including Mossad (who should be right on top of Muslim hardliners) their National Security Council and Airport Security four times on just one morning; that largely untrained and inexperienced pilots pulled off skilled piloting feats of crashing hijacked airliners into the World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon and how state of the art air defenses somehow failed to function.

As one report said, ‘after such amazing success, al-Qaida sould have attracted the best minds in the business, but, instead, it has been reduced to amateur stunts’, but is al-Qaida really real or is it a ‘create a need to buy some product’ ?

Look up integrity in an American dictonary and its been crossed out, they’s sell their own mother for better-than-the-Jones’s- look. President Obama has commited to an ‘undeclared war’ on Yemen, that neither the American public or Congress were informed of or consulted with. The ‘Underwear Bomber’ provides a convenient excuse for Washington’s new war.

We’re all a bit jaded these days and ask outselves whose agenda are these, who benefits or is best served by these events and the spin-doctoring. According to the news report, Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh told the Saba news agency that a terrorist cell was arrested and that the case was referred to judicial authorities for its links with the Israeli intelligence services. So is the ‘Underwear Bomber’ an Israeli terrorist recruit?

Israel may have an interest in keeping the US fully engaged militarily against all potential foes of Israel’s territorial expansion. There was a rumour back in the 80′s that USA and USSR generals had a pact of some sort to keep government spending high to fight the threats of the other country; how many times can collusion be factored into any business dealing?

In Russia, the Tsar’s secret police set off bombs so that they could blame those whom they wanted to arrest; Cossiga (president of Italy from 1985-1992), revealed the existence of Operation Gladio, a false flag operation under NATO auspices that carried out bombings across Europe in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. The bombings were blamed on communists and were used to discredit communist parties in elections.

An Italian parliamentary investigation unearthed the fact that the attacks were overseen by the CIA. Gladio agent Vincenzo Vinciguerra stated in sworn testimony that the attacks targeted innocent civilians, including women and children, in order ‘to force the public to turn to the state to ask for greater security’.

Is local politics so different, to self-mutilation of election signs being damaged and the ‘under-dog’ status to garner sympathetic voters; on a larger scale, why not 9/11 ?  After all our good intentions and well-meaning can be also described as gullible; John Howard used it prolifically. Tony Abbott has nothing for global warming so he just pushes the greed / fear tax button.

Are we really that gullible that ppolitical parties who purport to represents the public’s interest in truth represents private interests, that office holders and lobby groups finance their political campaigns. We know the Russians pretty much went bankrupt in Afghanistan, yet we spend hundreds of millions of dollars over there.

The newest diversion (yes I believe these are distractions to keep our eye off the ball over here, the mis-management and misappropriations of public funds) is the Iranian nuclear bomb capacity, despite the unanimous conclusion of 16 U.S. intelligence agencies to the contrary.

So it comes back to the media and why they would be supportive and subservience to government and it all comes back to profitability. When I was growing up, the Aboriginals were the bad guys; but as we know, when a referendum for the rights of Aboriginals to vote was taken, it was the highest affirmative of any referendum anywhere, so the government had to find a new enemy and co-incidentally, the Americans had one ready to go Vietnam. Now days its the Muslims; and how would you react if someone started picking on you … cop it sweet ?

Remember, the media’s focus is on one thing primarily, profit and as the media saying goes ‘never let the truth get in the way of a good story‘.
