Quote  Category: Propaganda “Naturally the common people don't want war ... but after all, it is the leaders of a country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along.... All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.” - Hermann Goering (1832-1946) German Nazi political leader, Hitler’s inner circle.
