Inside 9/11
« on: August 27, 2005, 10:49:02 AM »
Watched it yet?
Watched it last night for the first time.
Hope they run this every couple of months or so.
Wished it was mandatory for every U.S. citizen to watch at least twice.
Gives the answer to a lot of the "why are we?" crowd.
Tough to watch. The anger is brought back from that day. I think that`s a damn good thing.

Yup I saw it on Disc the other night.  It was a motivating factor of my "Clinton's watch" thread.  In addition I never realized what really set OBL off so much.

Like the commies and fascists do to get people into a certain mindset?
Hasn't the history taught you anything of this kind of activity?

lol  finland is close enough.

True Fishu but what about the truth?  Do we abandon the truth because it is in a powerpoint presentation and might be misconstrued (by those harmed by the truth) as propoganda?

There are other ways to handle the truth, than to force it in a certain manner into people's mind as a repeated reminder every couple months.
Especially if it's intent is to raise anger.
Angered people can easily loose their rationality, which makes them easy to manipulate - then we get cases like wars to counter an immediate imaginery threat and more laws which wouldn't pass otherwise.

It's a documentary that aired on discovery channel.....not forced propaganda.  People have the option to turn of the TV if it makes them mad.

Well, it depends on how you look at it..
Propaganda is a rather interesting subject due to the many totally different ways of practicing it.
It can be practiced by anyone.

propaganda or not it was truthfull, informative, and thought provoking.  Give it a big bad evil label all you want, people with half a brain who can think for themselves arent going to pay attention to you.

Hard to propagandize the images and film of airliners being flown into the World Trade Center by terrorists. It pretty well speaks for itself if you haven`t got your head where the sun don`t shine.

Three cheers for the delegate from Tampa,
Well put and hit the proverbial nail on the head pretty squarely.
