The Rise of the Fourth Reich - ThereAreNoSunglasses

354 THE RISE OF THE FOURTH REICHHitler achieved this conformity of thought among his followersthrough the use of radio, mass rallies, and meetings. Today, it is thecorporate- controlled mass media that determines the worldview of mostAmericans. The corporate media owners, many of them members or closeassociates of the fascist globalists’ secret societies, have learned the lessonsof Nazi media manipulation well—i.e., simplistic catchwords repeatedconstantly with no real opposing viewpoints allowed. For example, at thetime of the Iraqi invasion, the corporate media called the enemy “insurgents,”defined as anyone who opposed the established authority. This, ofcourse, meant Iraqis opposed to the U.S. occupation, but the term “Iraqis”did not fit well with government pronouncements about U.S. troops beingwell received by that nation’s population. By 2007, the term “insurgent”was being superseded by the term “al-Qaeda” in an effort to connectfighting in Iraq to the attacks of September 11, 2001. This attempt camein the wake of President Bush’s admission that neither Saddam Husseinnor Iraq played any role in the attacks. Likewise, the mass media long andloudly has trumpeted the term “War on Terror,” with its attendant warningsto be watchful for terrorists trying to slip weapons of mass destructioninto the United States, yet noticeably failed to report that even sevenyears after 9/11, no serious attempt has been made to secure the nation’sborders. Official government pronouncements are merely broadcast uncritically,with very little effort to check their reliability.Also, like Hitler, the directors of modern American viewpoints speakof a brighter and better tomorrow, yet constantly regale the public withimages and evocations of great moments in history. The attacks of 9/11initially were compared to Pearl Harbor, and President Bush early on garneredcriticism for calling his War on Terror a “crusade,” a term with uglyhistorical connotations. The sacrifices of wartime America during WorldWar II were pointed to as models for the war against terrorism.The Nazis brought complex social and economic issues down to onesingle concept—the Aryan German in a death struggle with the InternationalJew. Nearly the same concept is widespread in America—thefreedom-loving American in a “war on terror” with Muslim fanatics. Such“us against them” mentality has been used by despots for centuries to rallypopulations behind them.
