Here will be explained many mysteries regarding public opinion, including (but not restricted to) this very important one: Whereas Russia is widely condemned for having invaded on 24 February 2022 an adjoining country, Ukraine, a country which has clear importance to Russian national security (as being a potential staging-base for U.S. missiles to be placed there a mere 300 miles away from The Kremlin — a threat to decapitate Russia’s central command too fast for Russia’s leader to have enough time to authorize a retaliation), and is being severely sanctioned by U.S.-and-allied countries and their media, for having done so (for having done what Russia needed to do).

America and some of its allies were not condemned and sanctioned by any countries for having invaded on 20 March 2003 a far-distant country, Iraq, which (in stark contrast to Russia’s 24 February 2022 invasion of Ukraine) had no importance whatsoever to U.S.-or-allied nations’ national security (Only lies about “Saddam’s WMD” etc. had asserted to the contrary. Russia didn’t similarly ‘justify’ by lies its invasion of Ukraine).

America and its invading allies weren’t sanctioned even after their invasion of Iraq became widely known to have been based on entirely fraudulent U.S.-and-allied national-security excuses (such as that Iraq was only six months away from having a nuclear bomb). This glaring, and entirely unjustifiable, inequity in public opinion throughout the world (which was heavily propagandized against Russia for having done what NATO had actually forced it to do), is ignored in the news-media, but it demands an explanation, ESPECIALLY because the news-media themselves censor-out the very subject of this inequity, and pretend that it doesn’t exist — that the public hasn’t been fooled by them into this fear of Russia, such as was exemplified by Sweden and Finland then seeking to join NATO). Democracy within nations, and the achievement of peace between nations, are impossible unless this subject — this censorship itself — is openly and honestly discussed. Because this censorship is almost universally censored-out, the present article will be presenting the reader with immediate access to key items of its evidence (by means of links to documentation regarding any reasonably questionable allegation herein), so that the reader can judge the evidence on one’s own.

That’s the mystery; the inequity is the mystery; and here is its explanation.

INTRODUCTION

As will be shown here, the U.S. Government controls the Web; and this means that it also indirectly controls the news-media (as is going to be documented here, by the evidence that will be linked-to here). This evidence will make clear the extent, and the means, whereby the U.S. Government is, by means of censorship, effectively controlling public opinion in all U.S.-&-allied (or vassal) nations, but even to a large extent world-wide outside of the U.S. and its vassal-nations (or colonies, such as are all NATO nations).

Censorship is an essential tool of any dictatorship, and is a mortal danger to any democracy, because censorship enables the controlling owners of news-media — and it enables the Government that those owners also control via their massive political-campaign donations — to control public opinion, and so to shape voting-results and thereby produce ‘democracy’ instead of democracy. Such monopoly control of information to the public, by billionaires, produces the result that every candidate for high public office must choose to serve some billionaires or else will lose the s‘elections’ (selections by billionaires, and then elections by voters from among those pre-selected billionaire-approved nominees). That’s aristocracy (one-dollar-one-vote), instead of democracy (one-person-one-vote).

The U.S. Government (America’s billionaires and their millions of hired agents) currently does have monopoly control over the Web (the world-wide web, the publicly available portion of the Internet (which latter includes also private pages, ones that can’t be viewed by the public). Especially for international news, most people get their news mainly from the Web; so, censorship of the Web is especially important in order to get the public to support the Government’s (its billionaires’) international policies (such as invading Iraq and Libya, and sactioning Russia, and arming Ukraine and Taiwan).

Furthermore, Google has a virtual monopoly on browsing or searching through the Web and was created jointly by the U.S. CIA and Defense Department; so, not only does the U.S. Government (America’s billionaires) directly control the Web, but it indirectly controls the finds on almost all searches of the Web (and the few competitors to Google are even less good than Google is, and moreover aren’t doing anything in order to provide in their finds the Web-pages that Google’s search-algorithms are especially excluding from their finds). (Anyone who finds unbelievable that Google manipulates U.S. electoral results should see the 18 September 2023 video explanation “How Google Shifted 6 MILLION Votes To Joe Biden! w/ Dr. Robert Epstein” — also here — in which that extemely prestigious Harvard-educated research-psychologist, who had voted for Biden against Trump, reports his impeccably researched findings, which have shocked himself, and which have caused predictions that there will probably be a Google-paid hit-job against him to stop his research.) The full extent of U.S. Government censorship will be documented in the following examples: specific censorship-actions by the U.S. Government and its hired agents, will be linked-to so that the reader can see them for oneself. (Consequently, this article, which is being submitted free to all news-media, will be published by few if any of them, and the reader is therefore urged to pass this article along, to others.)
