An interesting article about Russia's involvement in US conspiracy theories.

Russian intelligence, state media, and trolls under President Vladimir Putin sought to bum steer U.S. domestic reactions to Jade Helm 15, the multi-state U.S.-based military training exercise concluded September 15th. Russia has invested tens to hundreds of millions to infiltrate U.S. media markets with English language news, opinion, conspiracy, and troll content, often interlocking with the most popular U.S. conspiracy theory websites on the net.

What is propaganda? Here is an example I read when I was a kid.

There was a two car race between a car from Russia and a car from the US. It was reported that Russia finished second and the US finished next to last

can you believe this? It seems that Russia is behind much of the conspiracy BS floating on the Internet.

LTC (Join to see) I do believe it. Below is a link to Ross Elder's web site. He is veteran, cop, and Soldier of Fortune contributor who has been working to expose this for some time.

Don't buy into this kind of misinformation. It's the kind of thing , the goal of which is to pull people in the wrong direction. Keep focused on the reports written by Americas Veterans the kind you see on Veterans Today Net., any body can access the site. No need to join. You will see that America and the banking system we use is being displaced by the Bricks-Nations new system. And all in all a new WW-3 could be planned or happen by mistake. In any case at the Veterans Today ssite you will see the truth. ISIL or ISIS is a western intel. program gone bad , Israel does in fact provide medical to ISIS fighters (WHY??)see also Israeli General leading ISIS forces taken into custody by IRAQ police (Yussi Elon Shahak). And while Putin was distracted with the Olympics the over throw of Russia's former state (Crimea) was attempted by western intel , how nice of them. 911 may have been another false flag as well as the school shooting at Sandy Hook going back 3 years ago. So states a new book by James Fetzer called 'No one died at Sandy Hook , it was a FEMA Drill'. Russia is not an enemy to American Society , it is a Boogy man to our western Establishment and banking system. That said , that alone will not keep our Nation from being manipulated into a stupid WAR.

LTC (Join to see) - Colonel; In some circles this is known as "cost/effective warfare".

If "Side A" can get "Side B" to run wildly around in circles crying 'The sky is falling. The sky is falling.' and to spend lots and lots of money developing 'newer and better' means of preventing the sky from falling then the odds are that either the people of "Side B" will not believe the government of "Side B" when the sky actually does start to fall or all of those 'sky fall prevention' measures will prove totally unsuitable when the ground rises up or "Side A" will simply run out of money and collapse.

It worked to end the Cold War and there is no reason why it should not work today.
