[quote:Anonymous Coward 1048292:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzIwMzIyNDk3X0ZFQTc3NTQx] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1155721] [b]Psychological Operations by Another Name Are Sweeter[/b] The Department of Defense has decided to change the name of military psychological operations (PSYOP) and this is a good thing .. While the U.S. military has never had mind control lasers, current PSYOP doctrine does allow for the possibility of products and messages that are not wholly true, or are made to appear as if they were written or published by someone else. Public and congressional support for PSYOP has lagged because of the incorrect assumption that these operations are inherently insidious. Changing the name from the menacing "psychological operations" to the more benign "military information support operations," with the friendlier acronym MISO, should go some ways toward fixing the problem. The solution is simple. To protect military information support operations from developing the same sort of taint that psychological operations now have, they should be made unambiguously truthful. PSYOP (now MISO) doctrine should be rewritten to ban misleading or false content or disseminating messages with false attribution. .. Of course, there may still be times when the Department of Defense wants and needs to mislead or manipulate an enemy. Most of these will be tactical and short-term needs, and either directly protect the lives of U.S. forces or trick adversaries into exposing themselves to harm, or both. To preserve U.S. credibility in those cases where "black" tools are necessary, they should be separated completely from military information support so that MISO is never touched by the taint of falsehood. [/quote] Thanks for this. BTW...US military is not the only military that practices psyops. Not by a long shot. [/quote]
