Cevirisini bulamadim. Makale kisaca CIA kullandigi pskolojik harb ve dezenfermasyon ogeleri hakkinda. Ilginc kismi, servisin yeni elemanlarina okutulan "ayda petrol var" adli herhangi bir ulkede cografyada arzu edilen ancak asli olmayan bir fikri, hukmu nasil o cografyada yasayan insanlara benimsetilir ve kaniksatilir ana temali dersi anlatmasi. Turkiye'de olan bitenlere paralel bazi cikarimlar yapilabilir, tabi benim gorusum bu.

Tamamini gecmiyorum, biraz uzun. Arzu edenler asagidaki linkten tumune ulasabilirler.

Oil on the Moon

Disinformation is often an important part of a sustained propaganda effort.
Indeed, it is hardly an exaggeration to say that even the most ridiculous
concept can be made believable if enough time and effort is put into the
task. In difficult cases, it may also be necessary to take extra steps to
entice large numbers of key targets to participate in a way that almost
forces them to accept the concept conveyed by the propagandist.

Imagine that the industrialized bloc, for whatever reason, decided to spread
a truly outrageous theory among certain audiences in the developing world --
that immense oil reserves can be obtained from the moon, for example. Now it
is widely known that oil is of organic origin and that the moon consists of
dry rocks which have never supported vegetation. Thus, no reputable
scientist would ever even imagine such a theory. But the wizards of
deception might begin with a "pre-propaganda" publicity drive in which
statements of "experts" are presented which merely question what is known
about the moon and stress the importance of doing more research.

Later on, news articles and broadcast features might emphasize the enormous
significance of a new "theory" that could eventually make Arab oil obsolete.
Debates might be staged in which those disputing the idea look bad by
comparison. New "discoveries" of oil-like substances on the lunar surface
could also be brought to the public s attention at regular intervals -- and,
of course, with great fanfare.

Foreign propaganda sponsors and aid donors might also insist that school
textbooks make reference to the "vast supplies of petroleum" that are now
believed to exist on the moon; donated library books would be widely
circulated to support the same myth; and doctored photographs or video clips
might be passed around to the news media which purport to "prove" what the
bogus "scientists" are saying.

Finally, contests might be organized in which college students or news
reporters are offered generous prizes for the best essay on how to bring
about world peace and global prosperity by exploiting moon oil. Contestants
would be free to research the issue for themselves, of course, but would
find that texts supporting the existence of petroleum on the moon far
outnumber those that suggest otherwise. More importantly, they become eager
to propagandize themselves because they want to please contest judges and
claim the prize money. In essence, they fall into one of the most pernicious
of all propaganda traps -- one in which targets are duped into equating
their own self-worth with the success of the disinformation campaign.

Again, it is hard to imagine in what situation false information about
extra-terrestrial oil supplies would be useful to a propaganda sponsor,
except perhaps to undermine the confidence of OPEC countries in future
economic conditions or to discourage potential oil producing nations (e.g.
Senegal) from attempting to gain from their own reserves. But disinformation
is a major element of foreign propaganda, especially military "psy- war"
projects intended to facilitate the surrender of opposition troops or to
induce the defection of their members. Indeed, disinformation -- often
combined with opinion or ideological messages -- is a part of most peacetime
psychological operations.

As bizarre as these tactics may seem, all are being used on a regular basis
to mold public opinion in developing countries on issues ranging from "free"
trade and western economic principles to birth control and population
planning. In fact, the psychological pressures of mass propaganda are an
essential element in building a constituency for U.S. military actions under
the mask of "international consensus." And communication campaigns have
become a routine way of discrediting anti- imperialist sentiments,
undermining claims for worldwide economic justice, and countering "threats"
to western interests posed by such diverse groups as religious movements,
so-called third world nationalists, and anti-corporate environmentalists.

But in a more general sense, control over communications in far-away lands
is as much an end in itself as it is a means to an end. To be able to
acquire and maintain the dominant influence over the spread of ideas and
information within a society is to exercise control over its people. As an
American military advisor reportedly said at the end of World War II,
"Whoever controls the radio controls Berlin."

Paylasim icin cok tesekkurler.
Demek ki medyada "Uzmanlar acikladi", "hukukcular...belirtti", "akademisyenler...savunuyor" gibi genel ve kaynagi belli olmayan haberlere "dezenformasyon olabilir" diyerek yaklasmak gerekiyor. Bizim milletimiz ne yazik ki cok kurnazliga kafa yormadigi icin, kendisine karsi yapilan bu tur operasyonlari farkedemiyor, okudugu birseyin yalan oldugunu konduramiyor. Bunun degismesi lazim, halkin dezenformasyon veya misenformasyon, yani yonlendirici yanlis bilgi ve bilgi kirliligi yaratarak saptirma gibi konularda bilinclendirilmesi gerekiyor. Bu dusmanlarimizin milletimiz uzerinde oynadigi oyunlari ve yaptigi sekillendirme planlarini bosa cikaracaktir.
