Hi:
Latest news reports I read yesterday indicated that the program to spead
disinformation has been cancelled.  Strange thing is that the headlines
flashed across my screen quickly and I have not seen it ince. I've checked
CNN and the AOL news archives just so that I can post it for here but alas to
no avail.  Makes me wonder at times!

Funny thing is the fact that Black Ops. have been going on for the longest
times in many countries around the world.  Yet, now the press acts as if such
operations are not only new, but a dirty arena which the Americans have
entered. The Germans were involved in black ops and so  are the Brits and
Russians.  I mean even Shaka Zulu was involved in black ops.  So problem here
is the fact that our society as a whole has become overly liberal and the
liberal Western media will cry bloody murder even if they know well that
these ops. have been going on for centuries.  Maybe not disinformation but
certainly underhanded tactics which fighting forces and states have used to
their advantage.

The Americans used black ops. against both the Indians and Brits.  In fact, I
guess the Brits were used to the old fighting style where the armies would
stand about 50 yards from each other, line-up in a formation and blast away
till one army was decimated.  The Americans didn't wait for them to line-up.
Instead the Brist were ambushed as they came down Colonial or Paul Revere
road in Lexington, Mass.   The Brits cried bloody murder but who said war was
fair.

I certainly don't believe the disinformation campaign is over despite
assertions by Rumsfeld (a war monger- by Tarek Aziz's assertion) that such a
campaign will not be carried out.
