'Of course the
people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the
country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple
matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, 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. That is easy. All you
have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce
the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country
to greater danger.'
