On se repassera le cours de Bezmenov sur les méthodes de guerre psychologique pour affaiblir et détruire de l'intérieur les démocraties occidentales. 

Souvenons nous de ce que disait Nikita Khrushchev: “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within.”

Ce cours semble expliquer l'ensemble de la géostratégie à t'écouter...

On peut aussi se rappeler que quoi qu'ait dit NK c'est bien l'URSS qui a explosé, ou aussi que le fameux renouveau de la guerre hybride russe (inexactement nommée doctrine Guerassimov) résulte notamment de la volonté d'imiter ce que l'Occident avait réussi à mettre en place, même si cette vision était très exagérée...

Bref on trouve des discours et des actions de guerre psychologique ou hybride chez tous les grands acteurs, et il est loin d'être certain que les Russes y soient meilleurs que d'autres aujourd'hui.

En quelque sorte oui.

L'effondrement de L'URSS n'invalide pas certaines méthodes. La France n'a jamais renoncé à fabriquer ses avions de chasse, même après la défaite de 40.

Cognitive warfare is Russia’s way of war, governance, and occupation.

(1/4) Russia has effectively used cognitive warfare to facilitate its war in Ukraine, shape Western decision-making, obfuscate Russian objectives, preserve Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime, and mask Russia’s weaknesses. The goals, means, and effects of Russian cognitive warfare are far greater than disinformation at the tactical level. Russian cognitive warfare is:

1. The way of war: The Russian way of war is centered on the notion that wars can be won and lost in the opponent’s mind. The Kremlin’s main effort is shaping its opponents' decisions to achieve aims unattainable through Russia’s physical capabilities alone. The Russian strategy that matters most is not its warfighting strategy, but rather the Kremlin’s strategy to cause us to see the world as Moscow wishes us to see it and make decisions in that Kremlin-generated perception of reality.

2. The way of governance: The Kremlin has been waging an information war inside Russia and on territories that Russia illegally occupies in order to maintain the regime's control and stability. Russia’s internal and external information operations, while distinct from one another, interact and cannot be understood in siloes. The Kremlin's domestic information control helps it generate resources for Russia’s military efforts abroad.

3. Born out of need: Russia is not weak, but it is weak relative to its goals. The Kremlin uses cognitive warfare to close gaps between its goals and its means. The main purpose of Russia’s cognitive warfare is to generate a perception of reality that allows Russia to win more in the real world than it could through the force it can actually generate and at a lower cost.

4. Targets reasoning: The primary objective of Russian cognitive warfare is to shape its adversaries’ decision-making and erode our will to act. The Kremlin aims to decrease US and allied will and capability to resist Russia to lower the barrier to achieving its aims. Russia needs its opponents to do less so that Moscow can achieve more of its goals. The Kremlin uses cognitive warfare to create a world that would simply accept, and not fight, Russian premises and actions.

5. Beyond media: Russia uses all platforms that transmit narratives — media, conferences, international frameworks, diplomatic channels, individuals ­­— as tools of its cognitive warfare.

6. Beyond informational means: Russian cognitive warfare is supported by physical activities. These physical tools include military exercises; sabotage; cyber-attacks; combat operations, and exaggerations of Russia’s military capabilities and battlefield progress.

7. Cross-theater and multigenerational: Russian information operations span decades and geographies. The effects of Russian cognitive warfare may occur years after Russia launches information operations. Russia selectively activates and deactivates a set of narratives over decades to adapt them to the Kremlin’s evolving requirements.

8. Effective, but only to a point: Cognitive warfare allowed Russia to make some gains that would have been impossible with conventional forces alone. Russian cognitive warfare is not always effective, however, as Russian information operations regularly succeed only partially, fail, and even backfire.

9. A constant pursuit: Russia is always fighting for the initiative in the information space. The initiative is not permanent and can be contested.

10. A vulnerability: The Kremlin is overly dependent on cognitive warfare. The Kremlin’s ability to achieve its objectives abroad critically depends on the West’s acceptance of Russia’s assertions about reality. Putin’s presidency also depends in part on his ability to maintain a perception that an alternative to his rule is either worse or too costly to fight for.

11. Predictable, hence targetable: Russian cognitive warfare supports the Kremlin’s strategic aims, which have not changed in years. This fact presents opportunities for defense and offense. The Kremlin also relies on a set of predetermined messages, making it hard for the Kremlin to rapidly pivot to new information operations.

Je rappelle que The Institute for the Study of War est un think tank néoconservateur, et constitue par lui-même une source de propagande. Donc c'est l'hôpital qui se fout de la charité.

Mais encore ? Plus spécifiquement ? Sur le fond ? 

Une critique argumentée de ta part peut être, sur un point particulier de ce qu'écrit L'ISS ?

Y'a t'il besoin d'argumenter sur le fait que la source politisée, comme peut l'être aussi RT, est biaisée dans ses postulats, son analyse, et ses conclusions ?

Après dans l'exemple que tu cites, il y autant d'informations que dans l'horoscope, des banalités de haut niveau, mais qui a force d'être répétées en boucle sont aussi efficaces qu'une pub vantant les électrolytes dans la boisson de "Brawndo"...
