"the aim of propaganda is not to try to pass judgment on conflicting rights, giving each its due, but exclusively to empahsixe the right which we are asserting.

propaganda must not investigate the truth objectively and, in so far as it is favorable to the other side, present it according to the theoretical rules of justice; yet it must present only that aspect of the truth which is favourable to its own side...... the broad masses of the people are not made up of diplomats or professors of public jurisprudence nor simply of persons who are able to form a reasoned judgment in given cases, but a vacillating crowd of human children who are constantly waveering between one idea and another....the masses are not in a position to discern where the enemy's fault ends and where our own begins..... the great majority of a nation is so feminine in its character and outlook that its thought and conduct are ruled by sentiment rather than by sober reasoning.

this sentiment, however, is not complex,but simple and consistent.

Chaplin became associated with politics--in a good way (politically, at
least)--with "The Great Dictator." About a generation later, after Chaplin had a
paternity suit and made a public stand against the HUAC of the red scare days,
the Attorney General bluffed that Chaplin couldn't re-enter the US and unfortun-
ately Chaplin decided not to try to re-enter:

I'm pretty sure yadda yadda 2 meant Charles Manson.

Didn't Hitler say something like one of the advantages or ironies of his
strategy (killing combatants and non-combatants) is that it forced his opponents
who criticized it to emulate it (area bombing, etc.) if they were going to
defend themselves?
