The Art Of Propaganda.

Sometimes pictures,more than words,are used to project an idea or a belief in the minds of the masses.

Its a powerful tool used in the art of propaganda.

Below are images of Iran,used by the US to instill feelings of repulsion,fear,intolerance,hatred and disdain for a "backward and barbaric" country.


(warning,some links contain mild graphic material.)















The images are familiar and the theme the same.But the full story hasn't been shown.Here's images of Iran you wouldn't have the government showing you.












If you believe this has little effect than imagine if the world only saw images like this of America.

flagged

good job on the glance through the looking glass

maybe a little less rhetoric a little more questioning insearch of truth may happen where Iran is concerned

Thanks.

And with some luck.
Some people still don't realize just how easy it is for a government to release mis-information and in some case,deliberate lies,unto the masses.

good points

the above pic looks photoshopped imo.

I want to visit Iran once if things will ever calm down

I really want to see the Baalbek stones

Thanks.

the above pic looks photoshopped imo.

Could be.
But there are countless pictures of guys on donkeys from all across the Middle East.


And the Baalbek stones are in Lebanon btw.So you can jet off to see them whenever
