COUNTRY PERCENTAGE OF YEARS AT WAR<br />

SPAIN 67%<br />

POLAND 58%<br />

ENGLAND 56%<br />

FRANCE 50%<br />

RUSSIA 46%<br />

HOLLAND 44%<br />

ITALY 36%<br />

GERMANY 28%<br />

Sorokin concludes therefore, "that Germany has had the smallest and Spain the largest percent <strong>of</strong><br />

years at war." Of leading modern European states, England, France and Russia show clearly twice<br />

the aggressive tendencies <strong>of</strong> Germany.<br />

From the years 1815 to 1907 the record stands as follows:<br />

BRITAIN 10 wars<br />

RUSSIA 7 wars<br />

FRANCE 5 wars<br />

AUSTRIA 3 wars<br />

PRUSSIA-GERMANY 3 wars<br />

<strong>The</strong> lie as so <strong>of</strong>ten is the direct opposite to the truth. On the other hand, Britain was and still is<br />

notorious for seeking world domination and the elimination <strong>of</strong> trade competition.<br />

WINSTON CHURCHILL<br />

"<strong>The</strong> war was not just a matter <strong>of</strong> the elimination <strong>of</strong> Fascism in Germany, but rather <strong>of</strong> obtaining<br />

German sales markets." - Winston Churchill, Fulton, March 1946<br />

"You must understand clearly that this is not against Hitler or National Socialism, but rather against<br />

the power <strong>of</strong> the German nation, which it is desired to destroy forever, whether it lies in the hands <strong>of</strong><br />

Hitler or a Jesuit priest." - English explanation to a German political opponent <strong>of</strong> Hitler<br />

THE STRATEGY OF PROPAGANDA<br />

"<strong>The</strong> European war which Britain unleashed on 3rd September, 1939 is, considered in its proper<br />

relation to world history during the last hundred years, a tremendous undertaking the object <strong>of</strong> which<br />

is to save in the eyes <strong>of</strong> the world British glory, British prestige and the British creed. <strong>The</strong> British<br />

Empire represents a political structure which, like no other hitherto known, has been built up on<br />

propaganda; propaganda which conceals the troublesome and <strong>of</strong>ten painful voice <strong>of</strong> history and facts.<br />

No country in the world has achieved such perfection in this way as Britain. <strong>The</strong>re, even truth has<br />

become the servant <strong>of</strong> propaganda."<br />

- <strong>The</strong> Legacy and Strategy <strong>of</strong> the British War Propaganda, Wilhelm von Axies, Berlin, 1941<br />
