This is a link to the writing of George Orwell in "1984" about Newspeak. What is so odd about today is that people do not get the clues to the manipulation of the media. To understand for instance, this Israel/Lebanaon conflict, as a means of putting together propaganda is simple because all cable outlets are in lockstep support of the war that Israel is engaged in. It is so different from the Iraq War or it is to the wise viewer. You see not one media outlet going against the war crimes that Israel is committing, not one. But look at the media outlets that have accused our Marines and other soldiers of mistreatment of terrorist. I have yet to talk to one person on any blog that has an original thought about politics, about the war or anything for that matter. It is like blogging with robots, and it so sad so very, very sad. Can anyone think for themselves in the United States anymore?
On a side note, we rented "V for Vendetta" this weekend. I suggest it for anyone with an open mind about totalitarian governments to watch this movie, as it is an eye opener concerning the direction that wars lead countries toward. I thought that I would hate the terrorist in the movie, and that is all I will say because I do not want to ruin the plot.
