[QUOTE="bluesky1, post: 3119278, member: 134493"] Sparkle quote: "The most gripping of all of these images to me was watching living, breathing men get their heads cut off with a knife by terrorists. Watching a man squeal like a pig and squirm around as he is decapitated slowly . . . . it's just a very powerful image that stirs a few emotions." Later in the thread: "In all honesty I have to say that I have not been one of the people who have actually seen those sorts of videos in the last few years. Yes I've heard about them on the news, yes I've read about them in the papers, yes I've been aware that they are there. Have I seen them? No." Propaganda (as defined by my Merriam-Webster dictionary): The spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause or a person. So, in an effort to demonize "insurgents and terrorists", you start a thread about propaganda with a lie pointedly aimed at eliciting an emotional response. The bad news sir, is that immorality and evil generally start small, and have their roots in just such acts. [/QUOTE]
