"It is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it
is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a
communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be
brought to the bidding of their leaders. That is easy. All you have to
tell them is that they are being attacked and denounce the peacemakers
for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the
same in any country." Hermann Goering, Nuremberg Trials
