“It is not civilizations that promote clashes. They occur when old-fashioned leaders look for old-fashioned ways to solve problems by rousing their people to armed confrontation.” –Kenichi Ohmae, The End Of The Nation State, (New York: The Free Press 1995), p. 11.

Why of course the people don’t want war. … That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and 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 the leaders.Hermann Goering, Adolph Hitler’s heir-apparent

There is more propaganda in a democracy than in a dictatorship. … The United States is unusual among the industrial democracies in the rigidity of the system of ideological control -’indoctrination,’ we might say - exercised through the mass media. –Seminal linguist Noam Chomsky
