'Finally, alongside the fundamental currents reflected in presuppositions and myths, we must consider two other elements. Obviously the material character of a society and its evolution, its fundamental sociological currents, are linked to its very structure. Propaganda must operate in line with those material currents and at the level of material progress. It must be associated with all economic, administrative, political, and educational development, otherwise it is nothing.' Jacques Ellul, Propaganda.

'Noah said: “My Lord: they have opposed me, and followed him whose wealth and children increase him not save in loss. “And they have schemed a mighty scheme,” (And they said: “You are not to leave your gods; and you are not to leave Wadd, or Suwāʿ, or Yaghūth, and Yaʿūq, and Nasr.”)' - Qur'an 71:21-23.

The five gods mentioned in my Qur'anic citation taken as their root meaning correlate with structures that may provide the groundwork for the sociological currents of a society, any further propaganda can only be successful if they ripple with these sociological currents. The five names capture the following senses (from your footnotes) and possibly relate to:

- Wadd - love/affection/friendship: the most primitive instincts must always be co-opted by total propaganda,

- Suwāʿ - time: "Propaganda must be continuous and lasting—continuous in that it must not leave any gaps, but must fill the citizen’s whole day and all his days" - Jacques Ellul, Propaganda

- Yaghūth - aid/succour/call for help: possibly indicating that the medical/health establishments must form part of the organized establishment for total propaganda to take hold,

- Yaʿūq - restraining/hindering/impeding: possibly indicating that the police/military forces must form part of the organized establishment for total propaganda to take hold,

- Nasr - eagle (perhaps indicating speed): total propaganda co-opting 'progress' in the realm of 'speeding things up' for the benefit of everyone in society.

Even if my inferences are off, all of these themes represent almost all things a society would hold dear indicating something totalitarian in nature. Therefore, I propose that chapter 71 is describing a highly seated active propagandist issuing commands to keep the totalitarian propaganda machine pumping at the point of the sociological currents of that society, and that the five senses I listed are the more correct building blocks for successful totalitarian propaganda as we are assuming the Qur'an is from God.

Finally, I would like to say that my line of thinking would probably be the first thing to enter the mind of a highly seated propagandist for the NWO when they read the above Qur'anic passage, as they actually think about this stuff day to day and implement the plans.

That's a great comment. Can we say we are headed in the direction depicted in "brave new world" as opposed to "1984" as weaponized compassion is used to subdue any opposition to NWO?

I'm going to steal an expression used by Leo Biddle (my interview with him will go live later today) who coined the term Huxwellian (i.e. Huxley + Orwellian). I think the tendency is to a hybrid of the two: a combination of an cosseted spiritual idiocracy on the one hand, and a boot stamping on a human face forever on the other.

One thing to be noticed as part of techique occurring with increased frequency is false flag events being employed to support the propaganda machine. Whole narratives are being created simply on the basis of staged events.

Peace.

Of course, for "American public" read "everyone in the English-speaking world".
