This was brought to my attention by a pretty Canadian... "Certain events should be presented in such a light that unconsciously the masses will automatically come to the conclusion: If there's no way to redress this matter pleasantly then it will have to be done by force; we can't possibly let things go on this way." Is that neo-con pre-war planning for the invasion of Iraq? Is it what Cheney told Bush before sending him out to claim a shadowy (and entirely fictional) connection between Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein? Was it the marching orders handed to Colin Powel before he told bald-faced lies to the U.N.? No. It's a excerpt from a speech about the proper method of conducting propaganda to create war readiness...the speaker? Adolf Hitler. Scary how it could so easily apply today, eh? |
