Leaked document exposes pro-Israel lobby’s manipulation of US public
More than any single person in the U.S., Frank Luntz has been responsible for teaching thousands of eager warriors for the Israeli government how to sell human rights violations and settlement expansion to increasingly dubious audiences.
Here is the guy. He looks young, Israeli-US media propaganda strategy for sure pre-dates this guy.
But his specific report is interesting confirmation, and you can see by the video how much of a soulless cunt he is, lol
The LUNTZ Document
Here is another report from this Luntz guy's company.... not specifically about Israel but of host of other topics
This is like NLP stuff (neuro-linguistic programming), using specific words and phrases to manipulate your audience and lead their thoughts around to unnatural conclusions:
This is like NLP stuff (neuro-linguistic programming), using specific words and phrases to manipulate your audience and lead their thoughts around to unnatural conclusions:
for example:
NEVER SAY: Drilling for oil
INSTEAD SAY: Exploring for energy
Politics is nothing but a massive science of how to lie, twist words, fool the public, hide your true intentions.
Anytime you hear a politician speaking, be sure they have been trained to some degree in this kind of speech

Through this rabbit hole I learned a new word:
HASBARA
...which basically means "public relations efforts to disseminate abroad positive information or propaganda about the State of Israel and its actions."
This Luntz fellow apparently is a current guru of Hasbara

The Israel Project’s Secret Hasbara Handbook Exposed
Imagine for a moment you’re a general about to embark on a decisive military campaign and your intelligence service secures a copy of your opponent’s entire campaign strategy. You open it and you see his battle plans laid out before you, key forces, weaponry, lines of attack, points of weaknesses, etc. You suddenly understand just how weak his forces are and precisely how to mercilessly attack and eviscerate him. The plan makes you understand that his forces are largely based on artifice and sham. It gives you confidence that you are entirely on the right course and tells you how to stay on that course. Victory is assured, your enemy’s defeat certain.
Douglas Bloomfield and Newsweek have done pretty close to that against the Israel lobby. Specifically, they’ve exposed a secret hasbara handbook written for The Israel Project by star Republican marketer, Frank Luntz. The oddly-named Global Language Dictionary (pdf) is a veritable goldmine of arguments, strategy, tactics. At 116 pages, it’s not for the faint of heart. But anyone who wants to get inside the head of the Israel lobby must read this document.
Remind people – again and again – that Israel wants peace. Reason One: If Americans see no hope for peace—if they only see a continuation of a 2,000-year-long episode of “Family Feud”—Americans will not want their government to spend tax dollars or their President’s clout on helping Israel.
Bingo. Here Luntz inadvertently speaks the truth.
