The first victim of information war is its own definition. Information war is not just propaganda, in the same way that PR is not just advertising.

It is stunts, events; it is making the news. You don’t just tell a story, you orchestrate events which demonstrate your story is true. False flags, agent provocateurs etc., are all essential weapons in the information wars. The victims of such events are nothing more than casualties on the global battlefield. As ‘accountable’ as the muddy corpses of WW1, sacrificed for a higher political vision. Unknown soldiers, even to themselves.
