Devils appear angels..Inductive fallacy..Points to ponder
Devils appear angels..Inductive fallacy..Points to ponder. By Dr. Sohail Ansari
Conceived and worded by DR Sohail Ansari (originality of
concepts and originality of words).
He
believes that there can never be a zero scope for improvement and appreciates
criticism if it is not for the sake of criticism

If he never means
what he says, then he must mean never when he does not say anything.
Twin Denial: Devils appear angels and..
·
Media or education
system is thought to be co-opted for indoctrination against some group if it
depicts any group or any nation as devils, and other morally charged figures. Material
is not propaganda if depictions reflect reality; however any material that is
anti-Semitic is propaganda. The children’s program (The pioneers of tomorrow,
better name I suggest The prisoner of today and tomorrow) broadcast on the
official Palestinian Hamas television (Al-Aqsa) that deals with many life aspects
Palestinian children actually face is as well propaganda.
Rejection of the depiction of reality as propaganda
is itself the technique of propaganda that
that makes propaganda appear impartial. Both truths are
rejected (depiction of Jews and depiction of Palestinians) as propaganda even if
things said about Jews are true and so the problems children of Palestinians confront.
This twin denial leads to interesting result: Devils
appears angels and angels if not devil so at least not angels.
Inductive fallacy of irrelevant association

David is a brave man. David
is an intelligent man; therefore, every intelligent man is a brave man.

Gray in his book ‘The socialist
tradition Moses to Lenin’ says that ‘Lenin peculiar position in the history of
socialism is that somehow he got things done.’ The world would have been much
better place, if Lenin had not got things done.
