Propaganda War - Lies, Lies and More Lies.
Reader comment on item: Winning the Propaganda War [versus Radical Islam]
Submitted by Jaladhi (United States), Dec 27, 2005 at 14:44
As I see it, the West cannot win propaganda war in the Muslim world because they stone wall and lie ad nauseum, and don't believe anything that comes out of non-Muslim world. The result is that not only the Muslims but also a large segment of Western population believes their lies. Lies repeated over time become the truth.Since the Muslim world does not believe us, our truths become lies in their minds. So its a tough situation - rhyme and logic do not aply in Muslim world.
