I have seeded articles and opinions whiich refer to the manipulation of the internet and other media to control our world views. This presentation underscores why we are easily directed. China employs government opinion " channelers " to moniter its internet. President Obama has just appointed an administrator to moniter " progressive " feeds on the net. I would challenge you to take a little break and meditate on whether your opinions are really your own...and then come back a little wiser...and a little tougher.

News bulletin just out: Iran is working to isolate its internet, so the populace can only communicate within the country. ( and that will probably be controlled for content. ) I'll just bet someone in a uniform will show up if they don't like what Ibrahim says.....
