WNU Editor: If this propaganda effective? From my experience the answer is no. It is very hard to keep people in a constant state of hate and anger .... and it certainly dissipates (very quickly) when people are left alone and are not provoked by a government and/or other organizations. But it makes great TV, and it is how governments and organizations use these events to legitimize their rule.

I like your optimism on the propaganda not being very effective. I wish I could share it. The USA is constantly vilified by pretty near everyone all the time. Unfortunately we are perceived as very, very big, very, very powerful, and our leaders tend to be very, very stupid. This makes us ripe for messaging to be used against us.
You once stated you have developed "thick skin" to deal with this. Unfortunately I have yet to develop such thick skin but am working on it.
