9/11 Narrative
The term Narrative management describes all required means and instances for the design, the implementation, the evaluation and adjustment of a psyop. Depending on the aims, the technical requirements and the military methods needed for of a psyop, the narrative management can be modest or complex. Historical example: The major worldwide radio broadcasts to combat communism through Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty during the cold war.
The official narrative of a psyop is only one part of the narrative management, namely that one, which is aimed to be established as the "truth" about the deceptive event or series of events that took place. No less important though for the maintenance of the official story, is the design and implementation of various alternative interpretations.
These alternative interpretations perform multiple functions within the concept of psyops. They do e.g. misdirect the discourse by offering disinformation or misinformation; or they offer "good information" about secondary aspects of the plot, that direct the research away from the main deceptive content. Such interpretations are often called controlled opposition, a term which is in itself part of the concept of psyops, as it originates from the theory and praxis of the military intelligence apparatus to seize the discourse of truth and to subject it under the logic of warfare.
For major psyops with far reaching consequences for the world, the narrative management begins long before a psyop kicks off and it continues for years or decades thereafter, so that any criticism which adresses the dispositif of power can be managed by laws and other instituitions as well as by merchandisable products.
The 9/11 Performance
The 9/11 psyop constitutes in every respect a historical turning point, as it depicts a culmination of all previous states of the art for psyops. The 9/11 psyop was the kickoff of a globally mediated military operation that changed the face of the world.
Although it is indisputable that the preparations for 9/11 must have taken many years, we do not know with certainty when and by whom the strategic decisions were taken. But we have information in many forms, texts, photos, moving images, that do relate to the psyop 9/11 in one or the other form.
In order to approach the material, we will distinguish between the period prior to 9/11 and after 9/11. The event itsself, as it was presented to the public, was a live event with simultaneous worldwide impact and as such it constitutes the main act of the 9/11 performance. September Clues, Clues Forum and Fakeologist.com have undertaken distiguished analysis of the main "performance" of 9/11. Their work, which built the basis for our thoughts, are presented on the page the 9/11 The Grand Deception. On the current page we will concentrate on the periods prior to the event and after the event. We will try to understand what this material tells us about the conceptional time, the methods and media used for the preparational period and the time after the 9/11 performance.
Pre and Post 9/11
For the success of a psyop it is of undiminishable importance that the core narrative can be “naturalized” by anyone without special knowledge or big effort. This naturalization means in essence, that all storytelling, no matter how complex, has in the end to comply with the natural axis of time, because that is what represents the natural form of human reality. Human time is irreversible.
