Appreciate the reminder around how psyops were used to gain public support for wars.

I also find its helpful to remind myself that to those deploying the psyops, these conflicts were NOT a "needless conflict". Quite the opposite. They dep!oy the psyops because they DO need the conflict.

Finally, I also find it helpful, if Im guessing about what those motivating needs might be, to remind myself that rarely if ever is there just ONE reason.

Complex projects involve many complex motivations and/or perceived benefits.

"Hence I note what I-Know-Why guys say but rarely, if ever, buy what they're selling. At best they offer food for more thought but, after many years, usually not.
