1. My university degree was essentially in WWIII. I studied how to defeat the Soviet and Chinese Communists using political tools like propaganda. The key to any successful total war is to dehumanize the enemy. It makes the work of killing people easier on the force & home folks.
2. I've failed to comprehend @KremlinRussia_E seeming obsession with self-dehumanizing the Russian people Путин strategy makes Russians, who are by my experience decent folks, into brutal monsters. Perhaps Путин believes that by looking monstrous we will be struck with fear.
3. When most Americans are simply motivated to destroy the Russian economy. But for the Turks, @RTErdogan in less that three weeks has created an image of Turkey and its people as bestial ISIS/AQ murderers engaged in genocide. They have surpassed Путин Russian self-dehumanization
4. by an overwhelming degree. Erdogan will be charged with war crimes including genocide. That is now 100% certain. The only question for the @POTUS @SenateDems @SenateDems @HouseGOP @HouseDemocrats is how many of them will be considered to have been complicit?
