"Ignorance is Strength"
-1984

(Your) ignorance is (their) strength. Such is modern propaganda.

Those looking at the ten second news blurbs of the protests in Toronto this week miss the story entirely. That would be most people, who are the targets of this staged propaganda.

With dramatic footage of burning police cars, most people are comfortably ignorant and don't bother to inquire as to the basic facts:

Why were police cars abandoned for hours in the middle of the street?

Who set them on fire?

Why didn't any of the thousands upon thousands of battle dressed cops stop the people from lighting them on fire?

Why didn't anyone call the fire department?

Why were non-violent political demonstrators targeted for brutalization and arrest immediately after this event?

This is an old scenario, a tired and repeated scenario. In 2007, three Canadian police officers were caught red-handed dressed up as "black block anarchists" holding rocks, and about to attempt to cause a riot. These agents provocateurs were taken away, and never charged or heard from again, despite the Quebec police admitting that they were indeed working for the police.

Did you catch that?

The Canadian authorities admitted in 2007 that they used undercover agents provocateurs who were attempting to cause a riot -- state sponsored terror against peaceful political demonstrators.

In a sane world, that would be big news, covered by all media until those responsible were brought down and charged with crimes.
