Well-documented facts pertaining to the 9/11 wars, all supported by sustainable evidence, have barely made inroads into the collective consciousness of Western media consumers.
The War on Syria is no exception. Despite the presence of five years of sustainable evidence that contradicts the Western narratives, people still believe the "official" lies.
The consensus of ignorance is sustained by what Michel Chossudovsky describes as an "American Inquisition". Beneath the protection of this psychological operation, the engineered enemy is Islam, and the Global War On Terrorism (GWOT) has become a brand to disguise imperial wars of aggression as "humanitarian".
Thus, huge sums of public monies are diverted from worthwhile, domestic projects, such as healthcare, schools, and roads, to support a criminal Project for a New American Century (PNAC) that is globalizing death, poverty, and destruction as the U.S led empire tries to impose a unilateral model of control over the world.
The U.S is said to be "exceptional", and therefore the rightful ruler. Manifest Destiny writ large.
Dissent is suppressed within the framework of corporate media monopolies. Predominant narratives are supported by corrupt "NGOs" -- totally bereft of objectivity -- and intelligence agency "fronts". Real investigative journalism offering historical context and legitimate evidence are relegated to the fringes, far outside the domain of the broad-based "consensus of misunderstanding."
The "Progressive Left" has been co-opted. So-called "progressives" (presumably unwittingly) support Canada's close relationships with Wahhabi Saudi Arabia, Apartheid Israel, and even the foreign mercenaries currently invading Syria (ie ISIS and al Nursra Front/al Qaeda).
The source upon which the pretexts for war are built and perpetrated are taboo topics, despite longstanding evidence that the official narratives explaining the crimes of 9/11-- and the subsequent "Gladio B" operations-- are flawed. The truth is seen as "heresy", and fact-based narratives are derided as "conspiracy theories".
Thus, a firm foundation of lies that serves as a sanctified justification for global war and terror, remains strong.
But the stakes are high, as Western hegemony presses us closer and closer to a real prospect of widespread nuclear war. Already, the use of nuclear weapons is being "normalized" through the introduction of "mini-nukes" into the equation, and the blurring of lines between conventional and nuclear war.
Michel Chossudovsky explains in "Is the Bush Administration Planning a Nuclear Holocaust?|Will the US launch 'Mini-nukes' against Iran in Retaliation for Tehran's 'Non-compliance'?" that
"The Doctrine for Joint Nuclear Operations outlines the procedures governing the use of nuclear weapons and the nature of the relationship between nuclear and conventional war operations.
The DJNO states that the:
'use of nuclear weapons within a [war] theater requires that nuclear and conventional plans be integrated to the greatest extent possible'
