In light of recent discussions: "Information Operations Roadmap"

[BeHereNow]

I think this warrants a repeat review by DU, especially
after reading some of the recent discussions regarding
you-know-who, the big Z.
Personally, I think every story put forth on the filthy
corporate controlled media should be considered
in the context of the Rumsfeld approved
"Information Operations Roadmap" which you
can bet your bottom dollar the Rendon Group is in charge of.
We all remember the "babies ripped from hospital incubators
and left on the cold floor" tearful testimony don't we?
Yes, that was brought to us by the Rendon Group.

"In light of recent media coverage of alleged propaganda activities by the military in Iraq, the Roadmap gives as one of its recommendations the need to "Clarify Lanes in the Road for PSYOP, Public Affairs and Public Diplomacy." The U.S. government is legally prohibited from conflating these operations by targeting PSYOP activities--intended for foreign audiences--at the American public. 22 U.S.C. § 1461 (Smith-Mundt Act), which created the United States Information Agency (USIA) in 1948, directs that information about the United States and its policies intended for foreign audiences "shall not be disseminated within the United States, its territories, or possessions." Amendments to the Smith-Mundt Act in 1972 and 1998 further clarified the legal obligations of the government's public diplomacy apparatus and several presidential directives, including Reagan's NSD-77 in 1983, Clinton's PDD-68 in 1999, and Bush's NSPD-16 in July 2002 (the latter two still classified), have set up specific structures and procedures, as well as further legal restrictions, regarding U.S. public diplomacy and information operations."
