**The Operation: #Gaslighting**

**The Illusion:** Implanting doubt and deception into minds, then controlling them.

The overwhelming majority of people around the world continue to repeat rumors and lies. We still receive fake news on social media pages, and we immediately spread it without the slightest sense of responsibility or awareness. We don’t stop for a moment to think about the source of the news, the rumor, or the smear campaigns targeting certain public figures, especially the famous ones. We don’t pause to reflect on the danger of this matter and its impact on the awareness of entire populations. And the question is:

Do you know where these rumors come from, who created them, and how?

How is it that the minds and awareness of patriots supporting their countries are manipulated? How did supporters of enemies, traitors, and terrorist groups fall into this trap early on, without realizing what happened to them, leading them to this advanced stage of mind control and manipulation to serve the enemies’ interests?

One of the most dangerous operations is the total control over the awareness, perception, thoughts, and emotions of the victims. Here, the victim is an entire population, whose ideas, directions, and identity are being targeted.

**The Operation: #Gaslighting**

This operation comes to us from the world of psychology and mental health. It was developed and used by the intelligence agencies of the United States, the United Kingdom, and of course, Israel. The goal of this operation is to deal devastating blows to the minds of the targeted populations, aiming to destroy them.

It involves planting doubt and lack of self-confidence first, then expanding the process to plant doubt in the hearts of the victims until they become confused, uncertain, and indecisive. One morning, they believe in a certain idea, and by evening, they deny it and believe the opposite. The targeted victim can be a person, an ethnic or religious group, a certain age category, or an entire population through social media and satellite channels. Hired media mercenaries are employed to plant doubt in people's minds. How?

1. They undermine your ideas and religious and national beliefs by promoting one of their agents on media platforms to speak with contradictory messages, pretending to be reformers or enlightenment figures, then harshly attack the foundations of religion and the homeland. All this happens while you sit relaxed on your couch, watching and listening, with your thoughts in a state of conflict and debate due to what you're hearing.

2. The person or entity executing the operation identifies the group whose awareness they aim to destroy, then addresses them with arrogance, claiming to possess deeper knowledge of the issues and implying that the victim doesn’t know how to think or understand, lacking any information on the topic in question.

3. The person or entity executing the operation listens to your correct opinions, then completely denies them. They deny the truth, responding with lies, fake information, and rumors, trying to convince you that you're wrong. Even if reality screams in agreement with you, they are professionals at denying it.

4. The primary goal of the operatives is full control over the victim's mind and beliefs by making the victim believe both something and its opposite, causing them to doubt everything and question all their inherited and learned beliefs. Eventually, the victim reaches the point of discarding their religious and national principles, even attacking and cursing them, which are the very core of their identity.

5. Not only that, but the victim begins to trust only the operatives and relies on them to shape their ideas and directions. The victim thus becomes their property, manipulated as they wish, losing their identity and allegiance to the principles of their religion and homeland.

**What are the warning signs you should look out for before you fall into this well-crafted trap?**

6. The operatives give you a small part of the truth but hide the full picture, leading you to believe that what they’ve told you is the whole truth and that there are no other details. This is why the phrase "absolutely" is often used by those striking your consciousness, to deceive you into thinking that no other details exist beyond what they've mentioned.

7. The operatives typically address you only with what serves their goals and ideas. For example, you'll notice that their interests are limited, and their topics are narrow. They cling to these topics intensely, making you believe they're right, and you fall prey to them.

8. The operatives use arrogance, disdain, insults, and vulgar language, often cloaking all this in humor, cartoons, or constant mockery of religious and national principles. You begin to think they are smart and sophisticated, but it's all a well-crafted trap.

9. The operatives use their famous colleagues in fields like entertainment, media, and sports to convince the victim of falsehoods and pollute their mind with the words and positions of these celebrities. You've grown up believing that famous people are credible and trustworthy, so you believe the lies.

10. When you respond to them, they quickly belittle you personally and deny what you say and believe, putting you in a position of embarrassment about your identity, beliefs, and national and religious principles. You become deeply ashamed, falling victim to their ideas and discarding your identity under the pretext of being more progressive, enlightened, and smarter than the "herd" who don’t understand what you and your friends—who targeted you with the #Gaslighting operation—understand.

The battle is both old and new. They create an event or terrorist act before your eyes, then control the situation with their deception tactics, portraying it to you as they want, according to the steps of the #Gaslighting operation. The fabricated event is written, produced, and directed with great care to reach you in the form of news, a video, an article, or a program, while you're unaware that the event was fake from the beginning.

The #Gaslighting operation aims to completely erase the victim's identity. As mentioned, intelligence agencies from major countries have adopted this operation to undermine the consciousness of targeted populations. Even some husbands use it against their wives, and vice versa. One partner makes the other doubt everything they believe, to control or drive them insane. You also see some parents erasing their children’s identities by constantly mocking their ideas and convincing them they are always wrong, causing them to grow up without identity or independent thinking.

In politics, the #Gaslighting operation is present and powerful as a means of controlling the minds of populations and convincing them of fanatical ideas, such as starting a war, displacing people, and killing thousands. For instance, George W. Bush successfully deceived most of the American public into supporting the invasion of Iraq. He was aided by hundreds of shady organizations working as consultants to the White House. The public then supported Bush in the war because their minds were filled with the image Bush had fed them—a distorted, incomplete image wrapped in lies and fabrications. The biggest lie being: Saddam Hussein will destroy the world!

The solution is in your hands. You are the primary person responsible for your awareness. You can verify every piece of news you hear before spreading it. Or, you can continue to spread lies that threaten the safety of the people, national security, and human identity without a second thought. You believe what is presented to you, and then the one who fabricated the lie moves you to further stages of controlling your thoughts and emotions, guiding you as they wish, whenever they wish, with full control—and you're completely unaware.

You think you're the only conscious, enlightened mind in the universe. But you don't realize that the #Gaslighting operation is named after a story by British writer Patrick Hamilton, in which the word’s meaning in English shifted to "illusion" rather than just "gas lamp."

The story tells of a husband who wants to drive his wife insane by manipulating the placement of objects in the house. When she notices, he denies it, making her think she’s wrong, even though she sees what he sees.

For example, he lights the attic with a gas lamp, and when his wife points it out, he tells her the lamp is off, making her believe she’s imagining things. This continues until she doubts and loses confidence in everything around her.

The story was made into a 1944 film titled *Gaslight*, starring Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer. The poster attached is from the same film.
