Disinfo Maginot Line: Protecting EU from \u2018Russian Influence\u2019 \u2013 by Manufacturing History<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It is now apparent with the release of the Mueller investigation findings<\/a>, that the great storm that has embattled the US government and establishment since 2016 over supposed Russia-Trump collusion during the US elections, originates not from a genuine tangible source, but a constant stream of rhetoric  driven by partisan corporate media.  One certainty though is the Western narrative of Russia as a \u2018malign influence\u2019 will not go away.  While America\u2019s liberal establishment continues to rage at Trump, Europe allies, under the influence of Washington, maintain their aggressive stance towards Russia following the catastrophic US meddling in Ukraine<\/a> in 2014 and the subsequent reunification of Crimea with Russia<\/a>.  The question is how can the narrative of \u2018malign Russian influence\u2019 be kept going?  Mainstream media will continue its role in this, <\/strong> but Western governments are also pouring resources into promulgating certain narratives while containing others.  This week, hackers released more documents from the UK government-funded project known as the <\/strong>Integrity Initiative<\/a>, revealing British government plans to build an umbrella network of organisations across Europe to counter \u2018Russian disinformation\u2019.  The following is a look  at one of the EU projects already operating to ensure European populations do not stray from this constructed narrative that at times crosses over into real xenophobic racism, or <\/strong>Russophobia<\/em>. While researching this phenomenon, it was impossible not to find some of the EU\u2019s counter-propaganda material quite funny.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we want to know the meaning of disinformation, the American think tank known as the\u00a0National Endowment for Democracy<\/strong>\u00a0which\u00a0funds regime change<\/a>\u00a0in the service of US corporate interests, has its own\u00a0definition<\/a>, but it\u2019s not important \u2013 \u00a0so long as we believe Russia or the Nazis invented the problem.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
