Are Authorities Secretly Supporting Extremism?

in #informationwar6 years ago

Time and time again we see stories like this. Violent anti Western groups are allowed to slip through the net.

Except that's not what's really going on. In reality, when this keeps happening, when extremists are allowed to go and not charged whilst, in contrast, people are sent to prison for 'racist' tweets, it means only one thing. The anti Western extremists are being given a helping hand by the authorities.

But if you've been paying attention that much should be obvious...

This is a story that has been going on for some time.

It's useful when a group wants to prevent others from peacefully protesting an idea. Just send in a group of violent people to attack either the peaceful protesters in an attempt to get them to disperse or to start fighting among themselves.

Or, have a group join the peaceful group and have them attack police. This allows police to justifiably respond in force against the group who would otherwise have been peaceful.

Optically, this has the added benefit of being able to show footage of the peaceful protesters behaving badly.

Agree. With great civil unrest and violence brewing the population becomes far easier to control, either through law, incidents or media narratives.
