Truth it's averred is the first casualty of war but the truth is the truth isn't just offed but is offed long before any bombs are dropped or missiles fired. For money-junkie ponzi-pumping gangster bankers their servile deep-state agents and pliant puppeticians the largest part of advancing their aggressively cancerous grasping ambitions has always revolved around fashioning attitudes and moulding opinions has always involved tireless attempts to engineer the kinds of anxieties and fears that trigger blind consent luring the guileless herds to the death merchants' side conning the trusting rabble they hold in sheer contempt into falling for the folly of going along for the ride on the road of deceit that leads to the bloodshed peddler's prize paved as it is with a mind-bending blend of aggregates that run the gamut from barefaced lies egregious distortions and monstrous omissions to subtle innuendo-suffused half-truths — on the hubris-coated road of power-drunk decisions that leads to a store that sells the horrors of war. In pursuit of as close to total control of the scope and direction of the narrative's deception as possible the perennial weapon in the war planner's arsenal — the propagandist's pride and joy — perception management's invariably deployed with its battery of malicious fabrications rationality-jamming emotional manipulations; with its masterfully marketed ritual fictions evoking vicious foes and evil rogue regimes; with its demonizing depictions of unsubmissive peoples or persons as irredeemable atrocity-spawning vermin. And often all for what but to wag the dog yet
