The Last Klansman is a pro-War(with muslims, of course), pro-Torture(of muslims, of course) New Reich troll. Its propaganda method is to identify chinks in the armour of those that oppose Blair's coming genocide of Iran, and exploit those weaknesses.

THE LAST KLANSMAN PUSHES ONE KEY MESSAGE- verbal and written attacks on Iran MUST be non-stop.

The method is very old, as are most propaganda tricks. Let us travel back to 1930's nazi Germany. Attacks against the jews were numerous, but also of very different types. For the right wing racists, propaganda could take the form of vicious and clearly untrue slander, since it was taking advantage of a very hot and uncaring form of hatred. However, the VAST majority of people within Germany were NOT right-wing racists, and many could be considered liberal.

There is ANOTHER form of propaganda that is vastly more dangerous- namely selective use of the truth. Think of the playground bully. The 'best' of them target their victims with vicious TRUTHS. "Look at her, she wears second-hand clothes", "Look at him, he can't even speak properly". Such bullies rapidly collect supporters BECAUSE those supporters fear that TRUTHS about themselves could be used by the bully to target THEM. In other words, fear of attack drives the weak to support the bully.

So, nazis who were tasked, like "the last klansman" to get the more liberal part of the German population on side, spent the whole of their time exposing unsavoury true stories about individual jews, or jewish movements. Thus, the vast majority of the German public were exposed to endless stories about how GREAT the nazis were (the media, like today, was fully in the hands of the Reich's supporters), and how BAD the jews were. Selective use of the truth is the GREATEST propaganda method of all.

You may remember a bible parable about planks in your eye, and specks in the eye of another. The meaning, of course, is that any GENUINE person of the left would spend the WHOLE of their time exposing the crimes of Blair and Bush, and work to bring them down. Their goal, obviously, would be to create a moral society of their own that could stand as a glorious beacon of decency to positively influence other nations.

I was listening to a newsreport following the psy-op method of 'klansman'. The BBC was at some muslim school because the government liked the way they do things , and the reporter was working the phrase 'muslim extermist' into every sentence he uttered.

'klansman's method also finds common currency in those lands that apply their laws unevenly amongst the different ethnic groups. This is a form of the self-same trick, where each arrest may well be for a valid crime, but one group will find that far more of its crimes go unpunished and uninvestigated.

The great frustration of people like 'klansman' is that everytime their anti-Iran propaganda hits places like Indymedia, it is immediately shot down by people correctly pointing out that such propaganda is ONLY appearing because it makes the job of Blair GENOCIDING Iran all the easier. Indeed, so blatant has this use of anti-Iran propaganda been here, that most times one might think that the only nations of the Earth were the US/UK/Iraq and Iran.

Those banging the drums of war, like 'klansman' also face another problem. Iran is FAR FAR FAR away from being the worst Middle East nation in terms of Human Rights (when inappropriately compared to those currently active in the West). Saudi is, of course, a thousand times worse, but I cannot remember one occasion when anyone has posted an anti-Saudi story to the newswire. What an AMAZING statistical co-incidence.

It gets better, however, since people at Indymedia in particular, could be expected to be MASSIVELY sensitive about the equal treatment of women. Women are SLAVES in Saudi society, but one doesn't here a peep about that here.

Of course, 'klansman' and his New Reich buddies are NOT planning to GENOCIDE Saudi (yet), so the lack of anti-Saudi stories come as no suprise whatsoever.

TO SUMMARISE- 'klansman' writes some anti-Bush junk (NOT anti-Blair, you note, that is not permitted for most of Blair's little trolls lest they accidently damage their 'master') and says "guys, I'm on your side". Then he goes on to say, "since I've earnt your trust, let's have LOTS and LOTS of anti-Iran posts so long as they might contain some little kernel of truth".

Personally, I would think you'd have to have an IQ below 10 to fall for such a ploy.

You laughable FOOL twilight, is this some personal vendetta?

You think I like Blair? You think I was thrown across the Edinbrugh tarmac because I LIKED Blair?

Oh yes, Saudi is a terrible place, maybe that why THERE ARE stories about it; though they dont dominate because its not a central point in 'global news', since even here certain topics dominate at certain times.
Grow up, and do a bit more looking, there's plenty of anti-saudi material out there.

And yet... whilst you are indeed rightly critical of Blair and Bush and their colaborators, I notice you do not in any way truely acknowledge the horrors of the Iranian regime. Firstly, I find any regime founded on a religious ideology repulsive, whether it be Chrisitain or Islamic or whatever, but aside from that lets look at one of their methods of execution (other than hanging), they throw people off cliffs tied up in bags. True, these are usually murderers and rapists, but its still deplorable. Oh, dont get me wrong, lethal injection and electrocution (not to mention firing squads) which are used everywhere else, are no better, and its unsurprising there are huge movements even in the US trying to abolish capital punishment, but seriously, thrown of a cliff in a bag? Doesnt sound all smiles and sunshine to me.

And I agree, we ought to work on changing our system, maybe it should occur to you that THATS EXACTLY WHY I SAID AS MUCH. What was it about point 4 that you didnt get? And we cant just get Blair out of power, you think Cameron, Brown or (unlikely as it may sound) "Ming" would be better? No, the system itself must be radically altered.
But do you seriously suggest that we let our brothers and sisters in other countries suffer because selfish isolationists like you want to concentrate at home? I wont stoop to your level and accuse you of racism merely because you disagree with helping the citizens of Arab countries, but not helping them is still moral cowardice. They are suffering under the heels of tyrants. As I said, a tyrant is a tyrant, no matter the colour of his skin, just as a comrade is a comrade, no matter the colour of THEIR skin.

Cant you see that all Im asking is that we excercise some moral consistancy? That any tyrant we find we oppose, even if they are fighting against our own traditional enemies? You cant criticise Blair's opposition to trade unions whilst ignoring the same attitudes amongst the Tehran government without being a sickening hypocrite. But reading some of you other posts, that seems to be just what you are - wh else accuses others of racism then laments the non-existance of a "white history month" as you called it; every YEAR is 'white history year', how else do you explain our utter failure to acknowledge the atrocities of colonialism in public?
Grow up.
Get some moral consistancy.

We dont want war. But we shouldnt applaud autocracies because of that. Sound pro-war to you? If so then clean out your ears (well, wash you eyes out really).

Oh, P.S., about bullies? Well, another tactic is coming up with lame 'neologisms' or plays on words to mock people, i.e. "Shelly is smelly" or some such nonsense. So "New Reich"? Or "Klansman"? How OLD are you for fucks sake? Is that all you have? Whose the troll now?
I chose this alias because I believe that NO-ONE in generations to come should be poor or enslaved, whether they live in Britain or not (something you clearly dont understand). Also, I feel my given name sounds daft.
