Navy Yard shooting: psyop, loose ends, media parrots
by Jon Rappoport
September 17, 2013
After covering a number of mass shootings and bombings over the last 20 years, I question the official explanation when a new one occurs. Automatically. Always. Every single time.
They lie. They obfuscate. They parrot. They don't investigate beyond a comfortable point. They leave loose ends, which are often far more important than the supposed central facts.
And there is always a psyop after the event. It goes like this: "tragedy," "unspeakable," "will bring to justice," "our thoughts and prayers are with," "this didn't happen in a war, it happened here," "vigil for victims," "grieving," "closure," "nation mourns the loss."
Why is this a psyop? Because the government officials and mainstream media reporters don't feel what they claim to be feeling. Their "positions as leaders" feel something, which is the same thing as saying it's an act.
Beyond that, the purpose of the psyop is to divert attention from the fact that law-enforcement officials are bending the investigation, abandoning significant leads, and taking the short path to a "satisfactory" wrap-up.
To boil down the psyop: "it was tragic, and now it's solved." One, two. Open wound, closed wound. That's the government/media formula.
In my previous article, I mentioned the psychiatric drug connection as a distinct possibility that haunts every one of these crimes. Rarely will reporters bother to look into this. It's dicey for them. Exposing pharmaceutical companies and their horrendously toxic drugs is bad for business.
Imagine this front-page NY Times headline: "Four leading physicians state that, in all likelihood, the shooter was on one of the SSRI antidepressants, which can and do push people over into violence, including murder."
Sub-head: "The doctors vow to press the authorities until they get to the bottom of the psychiatric-homicide connection."
Sure. That's going to happen when a rooster flies a spaceship to the Orion Belt.
If the purported shooter at the Navy Yard, Aaron Alexis (where is/are the other shooters?), was suffering from PTSD, as his family apparently claims, was he seeing a psychiatrist? What was the diagnosis? What drugs were prescribed? What effects do these drugs have?
Perfectly reasonable and legit questions.
Then we have the drills. In a number of these shootings/bombings, official drills that cover the same kind of event that eventually happens were held at the crime scene. Normal? Or op rehearsals? Desensitization of personnel to the real thing?
It turns out that Navy Citadel Shield security drills were held nationwide, at naval facilities, in February/March of both 2012 and 2013. From dcmilitary.com, Feb. 28, 2013: "...various training exercises with an emphasis on realism to train personnel. Scenarios included active shooters, mass casualty drills, bomb threats, surveillance, and false credential exercises."
From USA Today, 9/16: Dave Sarr, an environmental engineer, was walking down a nearby street when he saw people running from the Navy Yard. Sarr had seen an evacuation drill a few days earlier at the Navy Yard. "At first I thought it was another drill," Sarr said. "Then I saw an officer with his weapon drawn."
The same USA article cites a federal law-enforcement source (off the record) who states that Aaron Alexis, the accused shooter, cleared a Navy Yard security checkpoint in his car. After parking in the lot, he got into an argument and opened fire on one or two people. He then entered the building where he went on a killing spree.
So did Alexis shoot his way past security guards at the building's separate checkpoint? Why weren't the guards waiting for him just outside the building with their weapons drawn, after he, Alexis, had already shot people in the parking lot?
And then, of course, we have the many reports of one or two additional shooters at the Navy Yard. Where is he/they? Authorities now state one of these suspects has been cleared.
In Columbine, Aurora, Sandy Hook, there were reports of "extra" shooters. They faded out in the repetitive media reports of horror, shock, and grief, never to be mentioned again.
