Default DO NOT READ THIS chomsky INTERVIEW


If you idiots read HOROWITZ

(this guy is a joke. No Facts, just fabrications!!)

you cannot be helped.

you must belong to the 48%
of clinically insane US-Americans,
who still believe CIA propaganda (saddam=911)
... which in by books is MUCH WORSE than what delusions Germans carried
during the 1930s.

Because YOU CAN actually read up...

but it is MUCH easier to go along with the MAINSTREAM, for FEAR that
you **** you pants, being confronted with the truth... that the USA is
the most criminal, murderous and hypocrit state ever.

You shat-in-the-brain apologists will grasp ANY STRAW to denounce those
who but question your fantasy planet.


Sizeable Minorities Still Believe
Saddam Hussein Had Strong Links to Al Qaeda,
Helped Plan 9/11 and Had Weapons of Mass Destruction

(all 100% untrue, but in the USA corporate media pushed this
propaganda...
aggressively in the USA ... using well known cognition/conformity
PSYCHO tricks... as described in the famous Asch conformity
experiments:
http://www.answers.com/topic/asch-co...ty-experiments )

However, the numbers have fallen substantially this year

(but still near half of USA adults are clinically insane!!)

More than four years after the attacks of September 11, 2001,
many U.S. adults still believe some of the justifications
for the invasion of Iraq, which have now been discredited,

(hah!)

according to a new Harris Poll. For example:

Forty-one percent (41%) of U.S. adults believe that
Saddam Hussein had "strong links to Al Qaeda."

Twenty-two percent (22%) of adults believe that Saddam Hussein
"helped plan and support the hijackers who attacked the
United States on September 11."

Twenty-six percent (26%) of adults believe that Iraq
"had weapons of mass destruction when the U.S. invaded."

Twenty-four percent (24%) of all adults believe that
"several of the hijackers who attacked the United States on September
11
were Iraqis."

However, all of these beliefs and others have declined sharply since
the questions were asked in February 2005. For example:

Those who think Saddam Hussein had strong links to Al Qaeda have fallen
from 64 to 41 percent.

Those who believe that Iraq was a serious threat to U.S. security
are down from 61 to 48 percent.

(48 % are insane!)

Those who think Saddam Hussein helped plan 9/11 are
down from 47 to 22 percent.

Those who think Iraq had weapons of mass destruction are
down from 36 to 26 percent.

Those who think Iraqi hijackers attacked the United States
on 9/11 have fallen from 44 to 24 percent.

Although public support for the war in Iraq has been waning,
a 56 percent majority of all adults believe that
"the Iraqis are better off now than they were under Saddam Hussein."

(the PRESIDENT of Iraq said, for most it was WORSE than under saddam,
only an elite has profited.)

However, this has also fallen from 76 percent since February.

These are the results of a nationwide Harris Poll of 1,961 U.S.
adults surveyed online between December 8 and 14, 2005 by Harris
Interactive.


These new poll findings and trends show how slowly most people change
their minds once they believe something to be true.
Nevertheless, they also show that, over time, beliefs can change
greatly.

Methodology

The Harris Poll® was conducted online within the United States between
December 8 and 14, 2005 among 1,961 adults (aged 18 and over). Figures
for
age, sex, race, education, region and household income were weighted
where
necessary to bring them into line with their actual proportions in the
population. Propensity score weighting was also used to adjust for
respondents’ propensity to be online.

In theory, with probability samples of this size, one could say with 95
percent certainty that the overall results have a sampling error of
plus
or minus 2 percentage points of what they would be if the entire U.S.
adult population had been polled with complete accuracy. Unfortunately,
there are several other possible sources of error in all polls or
surveys
that are probably more serious than theoretical calculations of
sampling
error. They include refusals to be interviewed (nonresponse), question
wording and question order, and weighting. It is impossible to quantify
the errors that may result from these factors. This online sample was
not
a probability sample.
