"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
A Case Study in the Limits of Propaganda
"...videos of the 'Shared Values' television ads that the U.S. Department of State produced to improve the image of the United States in Muslim countries shortly after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks"....So when TV ads didn't work, the U.S. decided to invade instead. Has invasion and occupation worked better to improve U.S. popularity?
