Syria is exposed to the biggest propaganda war in history.
Hackers from Anonymous have penetrated the computer systems of #Britain's Foreign Office & taken hundreds of files detailing the country's propaganda programs in #Syria. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
In a security breach of massive proportions, the hackers appear to have targeted files detailing the financial & operational relationships between the FCDO & a network of private contractors that have had covert media platforms in Syria over the past decade the long war.
In the leaked documents, there are several hundred attachments that revealed a propaganda network of incredible dimensions. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
Every part of the Syrian opposition was trained & marketed by Western government-backed PR firms, from political narratives to branding, from what they said to where they said it. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
These contractors also organized interviews for Syrian opposition leaders in Western media, such as the BBC and Chanel 4. The aim was to promote Western support for the "moderate" rebels. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
"For Sama" is financed and made in collaboration with Chanel 4. Everything from the camera equipment she used in East Aleppo to the finished product. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
"The last doctor" is used as a source by both Chanel 4, CNN and the BBC where he comes with a pre-written script with a plea for help. Hillary Clinton needed that help to get her wish for a no-fly zone over East Aleppo fulfilled. She didn't get that. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
Public relations bureaus not only influenced the way the media covered Syria, but as the leaked documents reveal, produced their own propagandist pseudo-news for broadcast on major Middle Eastern television networks, including BBC Arabic, Al Jazeera, Al Arabiya, & Orient TV.
Direct contact was established with some of the major regional and international news agencies. Contact was established with over 1,600 western journalists. As well as with "Syria experts". A small group of civilian spokespersons for the "opposition" steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
received training in acting as credible intermediaries between regional & international telegram agencies such as Al-Jazeera, Al Arabia, Orient, Sky News Arabic & CNN, BBC, BBC Arabic, The Times, The Guardian, FT, NYT, Reuters & others. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
ARK apparently had operatives on the ground inside 🇸🇾 at the beginning of the 2011 regime-change attempt, reporting to the UK FCO that "ARK staff are in regular contact with activists & civil society actors whom they initially met during the outbreak of protests in spring 2011.”
There is reason to believe that these contractors were already in Syria when the uprising in March 2011 started. And, had established a network across Syria. Among other things, in collaboration with the Syrian Observatory for human rights (SOHR). Widely used as a source.
Already in 2006, SOHR established a network in Syria with over 100 informants spread across the country. Purpose? Preparing the war against Syria in 2011. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
The goal was as simple as getting support from the own population. In Norway, it was the Norwegian population. The model has worked according to plan from the start of the war in 2011 until today, 10 years later. steigan.no/2021/03/al-nus…
