you posted that in criticism to the article i posted. by that, you show that you're critical of psyop techniques.

but...you only posted half of the quote, the part you wanted to spin. here's the rest of it...

"If these people are shooting at us, we can persuade them to lay down their arms. If they fear us, we can convince them that they have nothing to fear. If they are belligerent and uncooperative, we can show them the value of unity and cooperation. Lastly and most important, the utilization of PSYOP can prevent needless bloodshed, destruction and misery. That is why we say, with conviction, that psychological operations, or PSYOP, is truly a humane weapon."

now, which is it, are you critical of psyop techniques....or not?


spin it jacky!
