An illusionist uses misdirection and
sleight of hand to manipulate their audience to see one thing when in fact they
are seeing nothing of the sort. Magicians perform their misdirection and
sleight of hand to baffle and amuse their audience. The Joint Chiefs of Staff
have defined psychological operations (PSYOPS) as those that: " include
psychological warfare and, in addition, encompass those political, military,
economic and ideological actions planned and conducted to create in neutral or
friendly foreign groups the emotions, attitudes, or behavior to support
achievement of national objectives. " Another proposal " develops
the concept of 'strategic psychological operations' as aimed at influencing and
shaping decision-makers' power to govern or control their followers. "
PSYOPS are sleight of mind. PSYOPS are not designed to baffle and amuse. PSYOPS
are designed to create tension among different groups; enhance dislike and
discord; and erode friendship and harmony. Misdirection and deception are PSYOP
strategies for achieving these objectives.

Nelson Rockefeller, Hadley Cantril, Gerard
B. Lambert, and Adlebert Ames staged and presented the Roadshow of
Deception. Other men developed the psychological warfare techniques,
built the communication delivery system, and designed and coordinated the
psychological operations used to manipulate public opinion at home
and abroad. Many of the men worked in United States intelligence agencies
and the US Department of State. Many worked in the British Secret Service and
the British State Department. The Americans belonged to the Council on Foreign
Relations; the British to the Royal Institute of International Affairs.
This is your doorway to the Roadshow of
Deception.
