The Revolution has Already been Documented.

Back on 4 Fed while everyone was so busy discussing the situation in Egypt, I posted this:

The Shock Doctrine, redirect the attention of the public to some other trivial issue away from what you're doing so when their attention is back and focused, the changes have already been approved and implemented and there's nothing they can do. I wonder what kind of mischief the GOper's were able to gum up because everyone's attention was distracted?

Now Ms Naomi chimes in.

Where's the News?

Since Egypt has fallen into political disarray, has anyone taken notice all MSM resources, both print nd web, are focused intently on the situation on the ground there while the rest of the world is slowing dissolving under the weight of their own destructive powers. As Nomi Klein so aptly put in her book, The Shock Doctrine, redirect the attention of the public to some other trivial issue away from what you're doing so when their attention is back and focused, the changes have already been approved and implemented and there's nothing they can do.
