Default Are People Who Post Pro-war Messages Getting Payed By The Pentagon?

I participate in many forums, and noticed that there are at least two guys who post 100% pro-war, pro-military and pro-Bush stuff.

Most Americans, on the other hand are anti-war and anti-Bush.
So how come some people could be so pro-war?
Hmmmm........ Let me guesss.... Are they getting their pay check from the Pentagon? Could that be the case?

Ah, you found me out. Speaking for myself, I am rewarded by the Pentagon with free sex with hot young Russian women, all the vodka I can drink, and toilet paper which has a picture of Putin on each sheet.

Well, as I said - on each and every forum there are at least two guys who post 100% pro-Iraq war and anti-Iran propaganda.

And what's interesting here is that they have very few thoughts/opinions of their own, they just REPEAT word for word the Fox-News news bits and official statements from US State department....

Try to debate these people and you will find out how empty-headed they are.

It is really hard for me to imagine anyone (who is not mentally deranged) being "pro-war." But what some people describe loosely--and quite inaccurately--as "pro-war" is really nothing of the sort; it is, rather, the quite reasonable view that appeasement is usually the worst of all possible alternatives. So when all diplomatic options have been exhausted, war may be the least terrible of the remaining alternatives.

Some people believe that the existence of nuclear weapons and other WMD should change the fundamental nature of our interactions with other nations. I disagree. Some principles are eternal; and they should be defended with the same vigor in 2008 as they would have been in 1908, or even 1808.

Such silly speculation does not even merit a response. Ad hominem attacks are both illogical and puerile.

If you just take time to research the subject then you will find out what is really going on...

Pentagon boosts 'media war' unit
US officials believe bad news from Iraq gets undue coverage
The US defence department has set up a new unit to better promote its message across 24-hour rolling news outlets, and particularly on the internet.
The Pentagon said the move would boost its ability to counter "inaccurate" news stories and exploit new media.

US plans to 'fight the net' revealed
A newly declassified document gives a fascinating glimpse into the US military's plans for "information operations" - from psychological operations, to attacks on hostile computer networks.

Bloggers beware.
As the world turns networked, the Pentagon is calculating the military opportunities that computer networks, wireless technologies and the modern media offer.
From influencing public opinion through new media to designing "computer network attack" weapons, the US military is learning to fight an electronic war.
The declassified document is called "Information Operations Roadmap". It was obtained by the National Security Archive at George Washington University using the Freedom of Information Act.

The Pentagon's Information Operations Roadmap

http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/...ps_roadmap.pdf


Pentagon: The internet needs to be dealt with as if it were an enemy "weapons system".

Fighting the Net
"We Must Fight the Net. DoD [Department of Defense] is building an information-centric force. Networks are increasingly the operational center of gravity, and the Department must be prepared to "fight the net." " [emphasis mine] - 6

"DoD's "Defense in Depth" strategy should operate on the premise that the Department will "fight the net" as it would a weapons system." [emphasis mine] - 13
It should come as no surprise that the Pentagon would aggressively attack the "information highway" in their attempt to achieve dominance in information warfare. Donald Rumsfeld's involvement in the Project for a New American Century sheds more light on the need and desire to control information.
The Pentagon's Information Operations Roadmap is blunt about the fact that an internet, with the potential for free speech, is in direct opposition to their goals. The internet needs to be dealt with as if it were an enemy "weapons system".

Pentagon's $20bn war internet will 'cure world hunger'
While inadequately-protected soldiers are being shot in Iraq, the US government expects to spend $200bn on "a new internet" for the Department of Defense, the New York Times reports today. The Global Information Grid, or GIG, is a ten-year project to provide a completely new information network uniting the services. Beneficiaries this time will include IBM, Microsoft, Hewlett Packard and Sun Microsystems, alongside more familiar names like Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Raytheon in a giant consortium formed six weeks ago to build GIG.

Yeah. I'm on Bush's payroll, big time. I do undercover work for Dubya, and have for the last seven years. I'm so non-descript in my ordinary life, I can go wherever, do whatever, right under everybody's nose. It's great. Don't out me, Dude.
