[ via our London correspondent, who has been reading Graydon Carter's new book, "What We've Lost" ]
Who said:
"People do not like war, but it is always possible to bring them to the bidding of their leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are under
attack, then denounce the pacifists as lacking in patriotism and exposing the country to danger."
So who said this .... ?
Was it Karl Rove or Alastair Campbell in an unguarded moment? Or even their bosses?
Nope ...
It was one Herman Goering, talking to a psychiatrist at the time of the 1946 Nuremberg Trials.
