Maybe this quote says it all... think I got it at the quotes thread.<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>"One of the primary means of immobilizing the American people politically today is to hold them in a state of confusion in which anything can be believed and nothing can be known." <br>-- E. Martin Schotz, History Will Not Absolve Us: Orwellian Control, Public Denial, and the Murder of President Kennedy.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>I think that if you can't shut down the web that propagating confusion is a likely tactic.<br><br>Personally I think GNN is probably "just" taking notes, hence it doesn't need to outright censor, though apparently some of that (the counterpunch article) is happening as well.<br><br>The author states:<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>My primary thesis is this: Guerrilla News Network is an American Intelligence disinfo operation designed to attract young political dissidents, draw them into the community, document their beliefs, and moderate their opinions. This thesis is not merely a hunch of mine, and I will now delve into the primary evidence which suggests collusion between GNN and the American intelligence community.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>To conclude and summarize, I’ll simply urge the reader to let the facts be understood: All four of the owners of GNN are elites; one of them is confirmed to have worked on a USIA propaganda operation, and one of them is confirmed to have worked on a propaganda operation that appears to have been a CIA front. Another one of them worked as an investment banker for an Israeli intelligence-connected technology firm. Throw in the fact that GNN bears all of the hallmarks of a disinformation operation, and you’ve got a more-than-compelling case. Guerrilla News Network is a Psy-Op.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>Well, a compelling case anyway.<br><br>And she continues asking questions which apparently are evaded.<br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://smartamerican.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=1181#1181">smartamerican.com/forums/...=1181#1181</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Well, I can attest that GNN's boards are highly infiltrated by seemingly military sponsored PR flacks who defend Israel, assail any and all 9/11 investigation, but who love to steer discussion to the "far more important" topics of Peak Oil, Global Warming and the vast Muslim fundamentalist horde. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=stickdog99>stickdog99</A> at: 10/26/06 4:52 pm<br></i>

disinfo

I should the GNN board is heavily infiltrated. But most of the best reporting and writing being done at all is on the internet, though, so it's ridiculous and harmful to say don't trust anything you read on the internet, and ironic, as we write here on the internet.<br><br>Anyway, Anthony Lappe should respond. How do we get him to respond? Blitz this story around the internet until he has to say something?? At least spread the word around the 9/11 truth community online that GNN are *not* allies. <p></p><i></i>

is honest when he claims on the front page of Democratic Underground today that the Secret Service has requested personal information on three DU members, one or two have been banned, or is it a ploy to get DUers to self-censor? <p></p><i></i>

Secret Service attentions

Postby robertdreed » Sat Oct 28, 2006 2:14 am

I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest to find the Secret Service looking into some of the posters on DU- or lots of other places on the Internet, for that matter.<br><br>I don't know how many of the people reading this message know this, but when the subject turns to threats of bodily harm against government officials, the Secret Service takes that matter very seriously. That's one topic- perhaps THE one topic, outside of disclosures of classified top secret information- where no one can count on First Amendment protections. <br><br>Write a threatening letter to the president of the USA, and your name and address WILL be flagged in a government file. You may even get a personal visit from the Secret Service and/or FBI. When the president or vice president visits, you may possibly be told to stay away from where he is appearing, and possibly surveilled, perhaps intensively. And you will probably remain on that list for the rest of your life. <br><br>This policy arose some time ago, due to the unfortunate historical record of American presidents being felled by assassination. And for every successful assassination, I can think of at least one unsuccessful attempt. <br><br>Considering the large membership at the Democratic Underground site, it seems statistically likely that there are a few wingnuts in the bunch. I wouldn't be surprised if the Secret Service were looking at Free Republic or Little Green Footballs as well.<br><br>It's ridiculous to be cowed into "self-censorship" because of that. By all means, bring up any taboo topic that you think needs airing. For that matter, talk all the shit about politicians and political leaders that you feel like. <br><br>But it's never been a good idea to threaten bodily harm to a high government official in this country, even idly. "Idly" is like sarcasm on the Internet- your tone might be perfectly obvious to you, but don't count on everyone else getting the joke. <br><br>And the more specific and plausible you get with your remarks, the more probable it is that you will receive scrutiny from law enforcement. <br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Sure, I wouldn't be surprised if a few made unwise chest-pounding threats towards W and the SS checked it out.
