OT: Poor Quality Propaganda ** NOT AT - Facts Worth Belief

[Guest guest]

Hi y'all,

 

There are a number of very badly produced, out of focus photographs

running around the I-Net in this part of the world now. Today a post

was sent to me by a very upset Turkish lady who asked me to confirm the

authenticity of those photos. I present this because perhaps the same

photos are floating around the web in America or in Europe .. though I

doubt that members of this list would easily swallow the crap.

 

The photos are of Arab an women being sexually abused by gangs of

American soldiers .. and of course, it is BOVINE EXCREMENT! It is easy

for an untrained eye to see that they are phony photos .. not focused ..

and the photos are fakes. They are a poorly posed part of the Islamic

Fundamentalist Terrorist propaganda machine. They are designed to fire

up the hearts and the weak minds of the masses .. that is one of the

best ways to ensure continued support of Terrorists in the area.

 

And .. the silly actress used in all the rape scenes .. she will never

get an Oscar for her performance. ;-)

 

In addition to it being totally ridiculous to begin with, many other

points immediately jump out to disprove the photos. First .. the

rapists are all wearing green uniforms and black boots .. Americans have

NO GREEN UNIFORMS and NO BLACK BOOTS in Iraq or in Afghanistan .. ALL

uniforms are camouflage shades of BROWN .. called Desert Camouflage ..

or as the troops prefer to call them .. Chocolate Chips. And the boots

used by US soldiers are also BROWN .. it has been such since the early

1980s .. I wore them myself. As far as I know, other Nation's troops

are also wearing the Chocolate Chips .. or something close to it.

 

GREEN camouflage uniforms were developed for hot, humid, jungle

environments .. for Vietnam .. and we have not used them for years ..

and we have NEVER used them in the Middle East .. not anywhere in the

Middle East .. and I performed many exercises in the Middle East .. plus

real world security missions in Jordan and Somalia back in 85/87.

 

Plus haircuts .. the dudes have long hair .. our soldiers in the Middle

East wear their hair in much the same manner as I do .. none. ;-)

 

The face camouflage is stupid. Their faces are almost totally blacked

out with Black Face Paint. Nobody would wear Black Face Paint in an

environment of TOTAL BROWN colors nor would anyone completely cover the

face as its not designed for that purpose .. its designed to hide the

shadow areas. Black Face Paint is used to blend into heavy jungles ..

where there is much shade .. and at night .. certainly not in a desert

environment. The Black Face Paint they are wearing in the photos is

worn to hide their identity so that they don't look like Arabs .. but

they are not too smart because folks who didn't ride into town yesterday

on a potato wagon ain't buying that. ;-) Even a dummy like me is not

fooled .. and intelligence officers can easily determine what is what

with VERY sophisticated photography imagery interpretation capabilities.

 

Dumber is the last photograph on the page .. showing a bunch of REAL

American soldiers standing around on the street .. all wearing brown

boots and Chocolate Chip uniforms. Can't hide that one easily. ;-)

 

Then there is a letter from an Iraqi lady who claims to be the victim of

these assaults .. in Arabic and translated to Turkish. I have no issues

with an enemy attempting to use propaganda .. but I have two things to

say about that letter ..

 

1. Arab Islamic Extremists are trying to influence Turks and Turkey

because they fear democracy. We have our share of Hizbullah and other

Islamic Extremist types here in Turkey .. but they are hidden well. The

idea is to appeal to the ignorant and easily deceived .. and we have no

shortage of them here. Followers of such idiocy are ignorant (education

does not guarantee intelligence or even smarts) .. and/or a desire for

power from those who have low self esteem .. and/or greed .. money .. we

understand this.

 

So .. its not too hard to understand why a Turkish Islamic Extremist

would help Arab Extremist Extremists develop propaganda in Turkish ..

and even if that is not the case the Arab Islamic Extremists can easily

translate.

 

2. Many of us can take the time to write phony letters .. gloom,

despair and agony on me .. and make some eyes pour tears for many hours.

That kind of propaganda is not too different that the type letters we

might get from a renter when we are a land lord. ;-)

 

The Americans, Brits, Russians, French, Germans, Israelis and some other

countries have sophisticated means of producing very high quality

propaganda .. and propaganda is a valid weapon of war .. its called

Psychological Warfare .. I have both training and experience in using

it. But this crap floating about the net now is about as crude as that

I saw the Viet Cong produce.

 

But it doesn't take a Rocket Scientist to figure out that those cultures

in Islamic countries (not all are the same) that have been dominated by

Extremism for close to 1,500 years .. and forbid images of man in their

religion .. to include even diagrams of the human body in their medical

texts .. would have difficulty doing a good job of creating propaganda

that represents human beings. ;-)

 

So .. that's it .. I just felt a need to point out the facts regarding

this poor attempt to influence weak minds .. in case one of you should

receive one of the multiple address posts from someone who qualifies in

that regard.

 

Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch
