    “If you want to convince people you have to speak their language” (…with forked tongue)

    “We have to not only educate people but also empower them” (educate = brainwash; empower =turn them into tools)

    The scariest statement in this video is “We are just beginning.”

    I never fully grasp social networking projections. If it’s possible to reach 200,000 people with a single tweet/Facebook post then, by implication, each of those 200,000 people is predicted to potentially consume an additional 199,999 comments, which is surly implausible. Perhaps with the screen smorgasbord of advertising, photos & repetition it’s possible to implant what the kids call a ‘meme’. That aside, I doubt that publically targeting the ethically malleable ‘middle ground’ will prove to be an endearing strategy. Most people resent being so explicitly coerced.

      “Reach” is the sum of your Facebook friends and Twitter friends. Your reach may be small but if you message moves onto someone’s social network who has a big reach then it can travel far and be received by many.

      Whether people act is another matter, they say that has a lot to do with message value, integrity and emotional content.

        People nowadays will buy any, even the most outragous lie , especially if is packed in a nice wrap and sold by MSMedia (eg 9/11 lies, Lybia now Syria , USS LIberty , etc)
        It is so easy to decieve people that is alomst frightening.
        That’s why the Jewish Power Elie is so sure of its victory. They know that the stupid, ignorant sheeple can, at most, whine and complain on the internet.
        They are not afraid of people becasue they feel like they have already a power over them. They feel like they already won the war, befoere even officially started.
        we are doomed my friends. we gave in to evil, inwardly and outwardly ,and this evil rules us all. and all the evil wants is to destroy . and who is going to defend us
        if majority of us picked the evil as their master????

    In re-establishing Deir Yassin Remembered, myself and Gill Kaffash are giving a lot of thought to this. Sure, Twitter and Facebook can reach millions – but with what? What is the true value of a million ‘likes’? And how does it relate to true shifts in consciousness and awareness.

    BTW Ariadna, for me the scariest thing is how so, so, so far ahead they are in their presentation. This is irrespective of the morality or otherwise of their message.

      Cohesive they might be but their lies are so transparent.

    Are you united with israel? 4.23mins
    Letter of thanks to United With israel 5th October 201?
    Thank you United with israel for your continuous work on behalf of israel and helping to improve israel’s image in the world with your skilled use of the internet and social media sites like facebook. It is comforting to know that the state of israel has a partner to help spread information, videos and pictures online that the citizens of the world better appreciate israel’s vibrant and diverse society, while also improving their understanding of israel’s delicate political situation. Your global reach of close to 1,000,000 people is a true picture of what is going on in israel today.
    Specifically, I would like to thank you for the important work that you did to help israel’s image during this past summer’s anti-israel activity by the Gaza flotilla and flytilla participants.
    We look forward to continuing our cooperation with United with israel to maximise the new technologies of the internet and social media sites to help israel’s image in the world.
    Danny Ayalon
