We have formulated the basic research questions concerning psychological warfare and suggested simple steps that provide initial analysis. In our research, we consider Twitter as a typical representative of the social networking phenomenon as it is one of most subscribed social networks. To determine points of view related to chosen theme an algorithm of keyword clustering is used.
