Like clockwork, numerous reports were quickly circulated suggesting that the terrorists used incredibly sophisticated encryption techniques, despite no evidence by investigators that this was the case. These reports varied in the amount of hallucination involved, the New York Times even having to pull one such report offline. Other claims the attackers had used encrypted Playstation 4 communications also wound up being bunk.

To support the military industrial complex.
Wish the stupid ass people would realize all printed material is government fed propoganda, also called psychological warfare.
Another term for it is world view warfare, coined by the Germans who invented it. America imported the German psychiatrists and mind control experts in operation paperclip. Its a form of mind control.
