This is chilling. From Roger Ebert's review of the new documentary, Hijacking Catastrophe:
"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 peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." Hermann Goering said that at the Nuremberg trials.
On a different note, this movie looks interesting.
He has rated it much higher than fahrenheit 9/11 - hopefully it will come in theaters.
ReplyDeleteRobin Williams was good in those other movies; especially in One Hour Photo (though I thought the ending was a bit of a letdown).
ReplyDeleteFeels like a lot of recent movies are about manipulating peoples' memories.
