‘Disconcerting & Dangerous’: House Passes Amendment That Allows Gov’t-Backed Propaganda

The recent passage of a $642 billion defense bill by the U.S. House of Representatives, even under the threat of a White House veto, carries weighty provisions such as a ban of same-sex marriage on military bases and continued allowance of indefinite detention of terrorist suspects. But a little reported-on amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act is beginning to get more attention. It is a measure that some are calling “creeping fascism” and others “a bit unsettling.”
The amendment has bipartisan sponsorship by Rep. Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) and Rep. Adam Smith (D-Wash) and would essentially legalize propaganda by the government within the United States. Buzzfeed reports it is an amendment that would “strike the current ban on domestic dissemination,” meaning both the the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948 and Foreign Relations Authorization Act in 1987 would be overturned.
A Tuesday press release announced the “The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012“ explaining that it would ”[modify] a Cold War-era law that hampers diplomatic, defense, and other agencies’ ability to communicate in the 21st century.”
“We continue to face a multitude of threats and we need to be able to counter them in a multitude of ways. Communication is among the most important,” Rep. Thornberry said in a statement. “This outdated law ties the hands of America’s diplomatic officials, military, and others by inhibiting our ability to effectively communicate in a credible and transparent way. Congress has a responsibility to fix the situation.”
“While the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948 was developed to counter communism during the Cold War, it is outdated for the conflicts of today,” said Congressman Adam Smith. “Effective strategic communication and public diplomacy should be front-and-center as we work to roll back al-Qaeda’s and other violent extremists’ influence among disaffected populations. An essential part of our efforts must be a coordinated, comprehensive, adequately resourced plan to counter their radical messages and undermine their recruitment abilities. To do this, Smith-Mundt must be updated to bolster our strategic communications and public diplomacy capacity on all fronts and mediums – especially online.”

Buzzfeed goes on to state critics of the bill see it as an overreach to give the State Department and the Pentagon this ability:
“Clearly there are ways to modernize for the information age without wiping out the distinction between domestic and foreign audiences,” says Michael Shank, Vice President at the Institute for Economics and Peace in Washington D.C. “That Reps Adam Smith and Mac Thornberry want to roll back protections put in place by previously-serving Senators – who, in their wisdom, ensured limits to taxpayer–funded propaganda promulgated by the US government – is disconcerting and dangerous.”
“I just don’t want to see something this significant – whatever the pros and cons – go through without anyone noticing,” says one source on the Hill, who is disturbed by the law. According to this source, the law would allow “U.S. propaganda intended to influence foreign audiences to be used on the domestic population.”
[...]
“It removes the protection for Americans,” says a Pentagon official who is concerned about the law. “It removes oversight from the people who want to put out this information. There are no checks and balances. No one knows if the information is accurate, partially accurate, or entirely false.”
Juan Cole, a history professor at the University of Michigan, wrote on his blog Informed Comment (via Reader Supported News) that “nothing speaks more urgently to the creeping fascism of American politics” than this act:
I love our guys and gals in uniform, but they can be extremely obnoxious in any discussion about US government policy that ‘gets off point’ or ‘doesn’t serve the mission.’ At Washington think tank events, I’ve seen them repeatedly close down discussions among e.g. State Department foreign service officers. You don’t want most of the DoD types providing information to us, because it won’t be in any way balanced.
Buzzfeed notes that it sees this amendment as part of a larger plan by the government to control a certain message. It cites the government’s increased use of social media monitoring technology as part of plan.

The Associated Press reports that although the bill passed in the Republican-controlled House, the Democratic-controlled Senate is “likely to scrap many of them and stick to the spending level in the deficit-cutting agreement.”

Posted on May 21, 2012 at 1:17pmDuring WWII the US released propaganda films for US citizens as well as those abroad. Fox News ran a terror alert color coded graphic for much of the Bush administration, post 9/11. It was always raised in time for an election. Propaganda isn’t just a liberal thing, conservatives know how to use it as well.

Even those old atomic bomb drill videos were propaganda designed to strike fear in those who viewed it(namely children). The idea of propaganda is gain control over citizens and make the government look good. Plain and simple.

Well, i guess it applies, since America has been infiltrated by millions of foreigners. More proof the Republican party is not for the interests of the American people and are not protecting our freedoms. Without a third party to balance things out, this country as founded will cease to exist, if it has not already been lost entirely.

Yes we have been infiltrated. It really began picking up steam in 1992, the year AGENDA21 emerged.
That is because The Creditors of the Bankruptcy ( The IMF and WORLD BANK/ UNITED NATIONS )of the UNITED STATES began foreclosure that year.
Make No Mistake – America Has Been SOLD By The NWO
In 1992, George H.W. Bush signed Executive Order 12803, which gave D.C. the authority to sell America’s infrastructure. They called this authority “Infrastructure Privatization.” E.O. 12803 tells us this power cleared the way for the “disposition or transfer of an infrastructure ”asset” such as by sale or by long-term lease from a State or local government to a private party.”
http://www.rense.com/general86/nomis.htm
These explain how we lost our Country and freedom:
The USA has been bankrupt since 1933
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlCs7u1ihws
“In 1933, Corp. U.S. went bankrupt and the States agreed to support their resolution. In keeping with the bankruptcy, the Corp. U.S. Congress adjusted their Trading with the Enemies Act with their Emergency War Powers Act, which recognized the people of the United States of America are enemies of Corp. U.S.”
http://www.teamlaw.net/history.htm
“The bankruptcy definitely started when Roosevelt came into office. He was sworn in during the month of January 1933.”

#1 I agree with you, but only on a certain level.
#2 There’s NO difference between Republicans and Democrats.
When Obama was elected, I told everyone that his ACTS would be the same as Bush. His WORDS would be different, but his actual ACTIONS would be the same. I believe I was right. The federal Democrat VS. Republican paradigm struggle is a charade. If Romney is to be our next President his words will certainly be different than Obama, but his ACTIONS the same as Obama. The progressive move forward to a fascist/socialist state is the work done by both parties.
Republicans setup the corporations, the Democrats take them over. Think about it, have the policies, of either party, over the last 100 years, supported small or BIG business? It’s a lot easier to ultimately take over 10 large corporations in any given industry than 100,000 small companies in the same industry.
Have either of the parties worked to bring government closer to you? Does anyone even know what that means anymore? Let my state decide what can be built in my state. If another state has issue, we’ll discuss and come to an agreement. If we can’t, well, my state will allow it to be built anyway if the people so choose. Not some DC bureaucrat or czar.
