A good time to remind folks of what their plan was with this entry from October of 21...

...Executive Summary
Warfare has shifted dramatically over the past several decades, moving away from the physical threats of conventional warfare. War now moves towards the social and ideological threats brought about by mass media and advances in technology. The advent of this new type of warfare is different from anything we have seen before. Although it takes elements from previous types of hybrid warfare, the reach and level of impact it possesses make it far more dangerous than its predecessors. We have dubbed this new way of war cognitive warfare.

Cognitive warfare, although sharing various similarities to other non-conventional and non-kinetic types of warfare/operations, is ultimately unique in its execution and purpose. In this paper, we examine the origins of non-kinetic warfare by first looking at the Cold War and the use of psychological operations (PsyOps). We follow the evolution of warfare, noting that advancements in technology gave rise to electronic warfare and subsequently cyber warfare. As cyber capabilities continued to develop, intelligence became a growing field and information warfare started to develop. Cognitive warfare, however, goes a step further than just fighting to control the flow of information. Rather, it is the fight to control or alter the way people react to information. Cognitive warfare seeks to make enemies destroy themselves from the inside out. We define cognitive warfare as the weaponization of public opinion, by an external entity, for the purpose of (1) influencing public and governmental policy and (2) destabilizing public institutions.

Destabilization and influence are the fundamental goals of cognitive warfare. These goals work towards the purpose of sowing discontent within a society or encouraging particular beliefs and actions. The 2016 Democratic National Convention (DNC) leaks are a good example of a foreign power exploiting divisions to destabilize a society. Terrorist groups like Al-Qaeda demonstrate how civilians can be influenced and recruited by radical ideologies. Never before has such insidious manipulation been as easy to accomplish as today. Advances in connectivity, digitization, neurology, and psychology have provided society with a great many boons. Yet, with every new opportunity, a new threat emerges. Today we are faced with the problems that come with social media’s ability to broadcast information to billions of willing people in a matter of minutes. We must defend against algorithms that can identify who would be the most susceptible to posted material, and who is most willing to spread it. The present-day ability to fake and manipulate information is unprecedented, and recent advancements in artificial intelligence have now made video and audio suspect as well. People are unsure of what to believe, not even sparing governmental institutions from this lack of faith. Simultaneously, we are revolutionizing what we know about how our brains and emotions function as individuals experiment with different forms of control. [As inept and corrupt as the government has been since WW2, is it really a surprise that so many are disgusted with it, NATO/UN all globalist pigs and commie pigs at that d.c]

Therefore, it is our belief that NATO must adapt quickly and forcefully to defend against current threats in the sphere of cognitive warfare and work to curtail future threats. While democratic society is both complicated and amazing, it is also vulnerable. To get ahead of these threats, NATO must respond defensively in three ways. First, NATO must work to develop a working definition or framework for cognitive acts of war. This includes a set of criteria for discovering cognitive attacks as they are taking place. Second, the alliance must assess vulnerabilities to cognitive attacks at a national and personal level in hopes of creating and inspiring a more resilient population. Third, NATO must establish organizations to liaise with tech companies and handle the challenges of the future of warfare. An additional final consideration would be an analysis of potential hostile states onto whom we may use cognitive warfare against in an offensive strategy or as deterrent.

The foundation for democracy lies not only in laws and civil order, but also in trust and mutual respect: the trust that we will follow those laws, respect civil institutions, and respect each other and our differing opinions. Trust is now at risk, truth is being attacked, and democracy is being threatened. The time to prepare is now, and the whole world is watching.[NATO, you have nothing to do with the truth, and we sure do not trust you or that dearth of life in that s*#thole New York., state government they are just as corrupt as the Feds dc]
