Edward Curtin – Off-Guardian Feb 22, 2024
There is propaganda by commission and propaganda by omission, the former often serve to conceal the latter. Timing is crucial.
That the U.S. President Joseph Biden, his British, NATO, Israeli allies, and their corporate media mouthpieces are in need of a major propaganda victory is obvious. They are losing the war in Ukraine, have been condemned throughout the world for the genocide in Gaza, and are ruling over a disintegrating empire. Biden and Netanyahu’s political lives are at serious risk. And so they have just rolled out a full-court propaganda press effort aimed at covering their losses. It should be crystal clear to anyone who can use logic to see the timing involved.
The great French scholar of propaganda and technology, Jacques Ellul, wrote years ago that propaganda “is not the touch of a magic wand. It is based on slow constant impregnation. It creates convictions and compliance through imperceptible influences that are effective only by continuous repetition.”
However, once this groundwork has been laid over time – as it has been with the continuous anti-Russia Putin hysteria and support for Israel’s Zionist policies – it can be intensely ratcheted up in exigent circumstances when the long-serving narrative is in jeopardy, such as it is now.
Once the death in a Russian prison of the Western backed Russian dissident Alexei Navalny was announced on Friday, February 16, 2024, it was immediately followed by a cascade of anti-Russia pronouncements whose aim was to not only continue the demonization of Russia and its President Vladimir Putin but to serve other purposes as well.
With one fell stroke, the calm history lesson about Ukraine, Russia, and U.S./NATO that Putin had just delivered to the world via Tucker Carlson disappeared down the memory hole, as Biden, without any evidence, declared that “Putin and his thugs” and Putin’s “brutality” are responsible for Navalny’s death. This, of course, is a replay of the false charges sans evidence waged against Russia for an earlier poisoning of Navalny, the Skripals (since disappeared by the British government), Alexander Litvinenko, et al.
Shortly after, Zelensky, performing his puppet routine while coincidently appearing at the Munich Security Conference – on Saturday, February 17, a day after Navalny’s death was announced – with Navalny’s then widow, said it was “obvious” that Putin had killed Navalny, while Biden pushed for more money for Ukraine’s doomed war against Russia, a U.S./NATO war created by the U.S. from the start with its aggressive military push to Russia’s borders and its 2015 Ukrainian coup d’état that ousted the pro-Russian leader, setting the stage for Russia’s incursion into Ukraine in February 2022. That Putin told Carlson these obvious facts, while slyly mentioning to Carlson that he understood that Carlson once tried to join the CIA, is now for most people in the West history lost behind the headlines, if it ever were anything more.
All this happened while Russia pushed through Ukraine’s defenses and took the city of Avdeevka, which had long been contested. With each day that passes, it is obvious that Biden’s Ukraine war strategy is that of a desperate politician on the ropes and that Putin has completely outfoxed the American desperados and their NATO European stooges. The MSM prefer to suggest otherwise, that hope is just around the corner if we send billions more dollars and weapons, and if with the help of our British friends, we take the war further into Russian territory and risk a nuclear confrontation. But we are in a propaganda war for the minds of the Western public.
Much of the rest of the world has seen through the risible MSM headlines used to delude the public that Russia is the great threat to world peace and stability. Like the previous Russia-gate lies, this ongoing one, coinciding with Navalny’s death, is timed to divert the public’s attention from key ongoing matters.
Tomorrow and Wednesday, Julian Assange will have his final appeal in a British court to prevent his extradition to the United States. Biden wants this journalist prosecuted for doing the job that the MSM have failed to do: Exposing the facts about the ruthless U.S. killing machine. But the bruhaha about Navalny has rendered the absolute hypocrisy over the torture and imprisonment of the innocent and brave Assange secondary and “inconsequential.” As intended, this has now become an afterthought as the mainstream media’s Russia-obsessed headlines flow uninterruptedly. The New York Times, the key propaganda organ for the Biden administration and the deep-state, reports just today that “The gravity of President Putin’s threats is now dawning on Europe” and “Navalny’s Widow Promises to Carry on Opposition Leader’s Work.” These are typical Times’ rants. As is its Magazine article headline from yesterday “Marilyn Robinson [the writer and friend of Barack Obama] Considers Biden a Gift of God.”
I don’t think the Palestinians would agree, but then too, their slaughter by Israel with U.S. assistance – more than 29,000 Palestinians in Gaza alone have been killed so far – and the coming IDF invasion of Rafah, have also been pushed to the back pages or to nowhere by the propaganda about Navalny and Russia.
I won’t mention the Russian election in mid-March that might possibly factor into all this since we all will be dutifully and timely told that the evil killer Putin is a dictator, ignorant, ruthless – add your own adjectives – and is no doubt trying to rig the fair-and-square U.S. November presidential election – for someone, just as he did in 2016.
Nor mention The NY Times article of February 17 by David Sanger and Julian Barnes that the “U.S Fears Russia Might Put a Nuclear Weapon in Space.”
Everyone knows that the Russians are coming to get us, as they always have. They probably killed JFK, right?
It’s easy to follow along as this propaganda eruption circles the Internet like painted ponies on a carousel. There will be no time to stop and think, to pause; to ask what the hell is going on? The ponies will dip and bob and make you dizzy.
For more corroboration of these matters, read the political analyst Gilbert Doctorow’s astute piece on how the Turkish broadcaster TRT World refused to post the interview that they did with him. Doctorow claims British intelligence killed Navalny. For some reason this should not be broached, according to TRT.
Whether Doctorow is right or not, only a very dimwitted person would think that Putin would have Navalny killed. He has nothing to gain and everything to lose by doing so. Yet the MSM and their government overlords consider most people very stupid and so are trying to blitz them with obvious propaganda through commission and omission. We have heard this story before.

What Is Really Going On? – WIRGO
As for Israel being on the US-NATO side fighting against Russia, first of all their APPEARS to be at least three sides on the US-NATO side, which are the bankster-ruled globalists backing the present “selected” regimes in those nations (the A Team of Biden, Trudeau, Sunak, Macron, etc.) and the bankster-ruled and more-overtly Cabala “selected regimes in waiting” (the B Team of Trump, Carlson, etc.), with the third being THE PEOPLE who do not know what the hell is really going on and are led around by their noses by lies, lies and more lies, all coming from on high.
The A Team is anti-Russian and the B Team is pro-Russian.
The A Team is pro Zionist and the B Team is pro-Zionist
Israel itself also has apparent divisions. It is largely supported by the bankster kingpin Rothschild dynasty and all of its major political parties from left to right are Zionist. We tend to think of Israel being on the US-NATO side supporting the Ukraine against Russia, but that is not the case. The nation at the same time is largely supported by the US taxpayers and US policies but the A Team not as politically supportive as the B Team. Netanyahu is clearly a “put in” regime leader just like Putin is a “put-in” regime leader.
The following is right from the horse’s ass on Wikipedia – but it is all carefully referenced and very true:
“… the relationship between Israel and Russia has improved significantly since the early 2000s, with the election of the more pro-Israel Russian leader Vladimir Putin, and the election of the more pro-Russia Israeli leader Ariel Sharon.[1] Putin has had a close relationship with long-serving Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.[2]
Following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Israel-Russia relations took a downturn during Yair Lapid’s tenure as Prime Minister of Israel.[3][4] Relations improved after Netanyahu’s return as Prime Minister, although cooler than they were before the invasion.[5] Unlike many Western countries, Israel has maintained relations with the Kremlin, refused to impose sanctions against Russia, and rejected calls to send defensive weaponry to Ukraine.[6] Relations became strained during the 2023 Israel-Hamas war.[7]
The Russian language is the third-most widely spoken first language in Israel after Hebrew and Arabic; Israel has the third-largest number of Russian speakers outside of the post-Soviet states and the highest as a proportion of the total population; in 2017 it was estimated that 1.5 million Israelis could speak Russian, which would amount to 17.25% of Israel’s population.[8][9] Over 100,000 Israeli citizens live in Russia,[10] with 80,000 of them living in Moscow,[11] while hundreds of thousands of Russian citizens live in Israel.[12]”

So, we also have a Zionist regime running the Ukraine with a complete dork as bright as Biden pretending to be their leader. The Soros-Rothschild money poured into the nation ever since 2012 obviously to stage everything which has happened since together with the help CIA, MI6, and the Mossad jackals. Meanwhile Chabad Putin and Chabad Netanyahu, Chabad Trump, and Chabad Carlson all share the same bed.
The Pattern of Rothschild Takeovers – The nation is first financially stabilized by the Rothschild billions and and then the Rothschild international bankster cartel steps in to save it and make it financial “safe”. Of course, it ends up totally debt-rigged and ripe for the rest of its major assets to be snatched up at rock-bottom prices by its chosen assigns.
This was certainly the pattern for the Ukraine and most other nations on the planet. The Ukraine is now being carved up. Likely, in the war with Russia (a clearly CIA-Mossad orchestrated one and also a very contained one), SURPISE, SURPRISE the Russia is winning, and the and the major Ukrainian assets are being divided up between Russia Corp., BlackRock, and Vanguard.

“Tucker Carlson is not even worth paying attention to. Besides Tucker Carlson also supports Chabad Imperialism, Chabad uses Russia as a base of operation. I am not against Imperialism altogether, but I am against Imperialism when it benefits a foreign subversive power, especially the Jews. Yes I am Russian, but I do not support the war in Ukraine because it does not benefit Russian people, but rather the Jews and their collaborators that control Russia without interruption since 1917 and killed us by the millions and turned the rest into zombiefied slaves, the Bolshevik Jews are the biggest Russophobes in existence.”

I wonder what the Daily Mail, the New York Times, etc. will do when the Kremlin-ordered investigation of Navalny’s death is published. Then again, why bother wondering? Their weak-kneed propagandist lies will have saturated this territory by then. So they will ignore the Russian findings.
‘Doctorow claims British Intelligence killed Navalny.’ Like British Intelligence had a go at doing a few years ago? (See Nick Kollerstrom’s The Novichok Chronicles/A Tale of Three Hoaxes’.) That is very likely.
Watch all the Putintards & kgb internet agents come out defending their Bolshevik ghoul. The death by ‘Shipman shot’ theory isn’t holding up or believable, so now TTS is running ‘damage control’ for its beloved Russian Judeo-Commies who can never do any wrong.
Well..when you consider that ALL of imbecile kind are an exercise in propaganda…
It merely comes down to a matter of choice..of which kind of propaganda you are more inclined or coerced to imbibe.. to parrot…
Chimps have more autonomy…
Pro-western Russians haven’t yet grasped the danger to them comes not from Putin, but from those who think it has propaganda value to kill them then blame Putin to try damage him. It is dangerous to be anti-Putin, simply because the CIA and MI6 might find your sudden death to be very useful.
TTS still can’t figure out the NATO vs. Russia sham is simply a replay of the staged bogus ‘Cold War’, which was revealed to be a scam in Antony Sutton’s book ‘The Best Enemy Money Can Buy’– exposing how the US was actually supplying military machinery & billions to its ‘enemy’ the USSR, yet reporting in their MSM (Marxist Semitic Media) to the morons how they’re ‘mortal enemies’. Figure it out.

“The Pattern of Rothschild Takeovers – The nation is first financially DEstabilized by the Rothschild billions and then the Rothschild international bankster cartel steps in to save it and make it financial “safe”. “”” !!!
The pattern has been the same ever since the Civil War in the US until the banks, the media and key politicians by the beginning of the 20th century were firmly in control of that same international money power bankster network, and then the Fed. This is exactly what they have also done in virtually every nation with one of their central banks. To us they say it is just business in a dog-eat-dog world, but in fact it is a very organized and planned warfare against all those they regard as outsiders and enemies which is about 99% of the global population. Except for those who have been bribed or coerced in their system, few people know that an all-out war is constantly being waged against them by that order for whom there are no moral or legal limits to their exploits which they will tolerate to be in their way.
Bribery, blackmail, pay-for-play, insider-trading, terror, torture, assassinations, coups, massive frauds, and wars are their trademarks, and people wonder why every major institution on the planet will not hear or consider their evidence as to the Covid crimes, or with respect to any of their continuous massive frauds, genocides, and crimes against humanity. Those in their pyramid of power know that the truth with respect to anything deemed important only goes upward and what they will allow to filter downwards to the people are facts and lies which will help them maintain and increase their powers. They have absolutely no moral limits and what we regard as right and wrong (underlying ALL of the publications and comments in the alt-media) is entirely of no concern to them. They do not listen or pay attention to us, because they simply do not have to. They expect to just keep spinning their fake narratives until they bury us in their bullshit.
Moral leadership? Even the RC church has been commandeered with a fake pope. Next thing they will announce is an agreement to let their sheep join the Masonic useful dupes.
Crapshit fart talk.
Nothing can be deduced from handshake form.
It’s merely a habit.
On Yahoo! News today, (24.2.2024) it says “Vladimir Putin probably” has Parkinson’s disease, a former MI6 boss has claimed.” It goes on to say Alexei Navainy’s death was “definitely” murder and that Putin is suffering from paranoia as a result of his having Parkinson’s disease! What Next, I wonder?🤢
Alexei Navalny PBUH…
