If you are still needing an academic tutorial on exactly how the mainstream media is able to generate a completely phony public consensus to support foreign intervention projects, you need look no further than the dangerous, fictional narrative currently being rolled out regarding Syria.

Will Iran Kill the Petrodollar?

The official line from the United States and the European Union is that Tehran must be punished for continuing its efforts to develop a nuclear weapon. The punishment: sanctions on Iran's oil exports, which are meant to isolate Iran and depress the value of its currency to such a point that the country crumbles.
But that line doesn't make sense, and the sanctions will not achieve their goals. Iran is far from isolated and its friends – like India – will stand by the oil-producing nation until the US either backs down or acknowledges the real matter at hand. That matter is the American dollar and its role as the global reserve currency.

The short version of the story is that a 1970s deal cemented the US dollar as the only currency to buy and sell crude oil, and from that monopoly on the all-important oil trade the US dollar slowly but surely became the reserve currency for global trades in most commodities and goods. Massive demand for US dollars ensued, pushing the dollar's value up, up, and away. In addition, countries stored their excess US dollars savings in US Treasuries, giving the US government a vast pool of credit from which to draw.

Black Africans Genocided by Al-Qaeda Led Rebels in Libya

Governments historically have used war propaganda (often in the form of atrocities ascribed to the targeted enemy) on their own people in order to make a case for and gain public support for going to war.  A litany of lies once again was fed to us via the corporate news media in order to justify the NATO invasion of Libya.  Have we forgotten that fabricated stories involving WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction), post-9/11 anger and the good old cliche of bringing democracy to Iraq were used to manipulate us in to going to war with another sovereign country who had not attacked us?

One of the big lies told to the public via the corporate media was that black African mercenaries were being used by Gaddafi to commit genocide against the Libyan people.  According to the CounterPunch article titled "The Top Ten Myths in the War Against Libya":

[...]

Patrick Cockburn summarized the functional utility of the myth of the “African mercenary” and the context in which it arose: “Since February, the insurgents, often supported by foreign powers, claimed that the battle was between Gaddafi and his family on the one side and the Libyan people on the other. Their explanation for the large pro-Gaddafi forces was that they were all mercenaries, mostly from black Africa, whose only motive was money”. As he notes, black prisoners were put on display for the media (which is a violation of the Geneva Convention), but Amnesty International later found that all the prisoners had supposedly been released since none of them were fighters, but rather were undocumented workers from Mali, Chad, and west Africa. The myth was useful for the opposition to insist that this was a war between “Gaddafi and the Libyan people,” as if he had no domestic support at all—an absolute and colossal fabrication such that one would think only little children could believe a story so fantastic. The myth is also useful for cementing the intended rupture between “the new Libya” and Pan-Africanism, realigning Libya with Europe and the “modern world” which some of the opposition so explicitly crave.

In reality, real genocide has occurred against the black Africans living in Libya by the admittedly Al-Qaeda controlled rebels.  Black Libyans have been rounded up en-mass with no proof they have done anything wrong and in many cases they have been dragged from their homes and summarily executed, with the excuse being that they must be mercenaries who supposedly were used by Gaddafi to attack his own people.

Corporate media tries to make Ron Paul invisible via Jedi mind trick

Jon Stewart of the Daily Show points out the establishment propagandists', erm I mean corporate media's, attempt to marginalize Ron Paul's popularity by suggesting he is not electable, not relevant and by pretending he does not exist by omission. Perhaps the talking heads need to go back to Langley, VA to take some remedial Project Mockingbird psyop courses. If comedians mock you Project Mockingbird rejects, it means you have FAILED.
