You may want to comment on the following:
- What sensory and psychological misdirection did you detect?
- What cognitive biases does it play upon?
- Compare the message with what may be the true agenda it conceals. Popular vs Practical Geopolitics.
- The narrative: How it is framed. What is included and ignored. What is true, false and assumed. What is concluded. Is the narrative logical? Who are the protagonists, victims and antagonists? What is and what ought to be our country’s role?
- A scientific interpretation with a regard for Evidence and Reason.
