Question: Are WAR MOVIES and war games sponsored by the military!?

Adolescents and young adults are easily influenced by what they see and by what they play and I think that the military knows that better than I do!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The US military has sponsored video games as a recruiting tool!. They also cooperate with movies and provide support if there's nothing in the film they object to!. They will sometimes make demands of the film in return for support!. You only hear about it when the filmmakers say "no"!.

The "black budget", which is the part of the military that budget that doesn't say what they're spending it on has grown A LOT under Bush (under Bush Sr!. and Clinton too, but especially under Bush Jr!.)!. Nobody knows exactly where that money goes, but the odds are a lot of it goes toward propaganda oversees and not much goes to propaganda here!. Their propaganda tactics here seem to be pretty well disclosed, like recruiting on campuses and making lots of promises!. There's nothing subtle about their ads on TV either and they still don't meet their recruiting goals!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
