“Hell is empty and all the devils are here” – William Shakespeare (The Tempest Act 1 Scene 2) War has always depended on a reliable system to spread its propaganda. The Arthashastra written by Chankya (350-283 BCE) who was chief advisor to the Emperor Chandragupta (the first ruler of the Mauryan Empire) discusses propaganda and how to disperse and apply it in warfare. It is one of the oldest accounts of the essentialism of propaganda in warfare.
I had the pleasure of meeting Udo Ulfkotte in person years ago at a lecture and subsequent discussion in a villa in Cologne. His signed books will always have a place of honor on my bookshelf.
It is a great loss for us Germans to lose this brave man who had chosen truthfulness. His death, which has not been solved until today, still makes me stunned and sad.
All the more thank you, dear Cynthia, for reminding me and many others here of him in this place. ❤
As the collective West's "500 Year Reich" of total world domination comes to an inglorious and inexorable end in the form of the much dreaded - "multi-polar world" - blatant and ceaseless propaganda will be more critical than ever in order to keep Western populations locked into our ongoing infantile state of clueless idiocy regarding anything that might be fairly described as - "objective reality."
The depth and breadth of the corruption in nearly every institution beggars belief. We allowed the deep state to become so large, wealthy and powerful that, at this point, only total destruction and starting over could reign them in. That is never going to happen, as we know, since they own and control every institution that would be used to bring them down. Now we're stuck with trying to live in a thoroughly corrupt world in the best way we can, knowing that there is no way we can hide from them forever. And all this in furtherance of world domination by psychopathic monsters.
Ich durfte Udo Ulfkotte anlässlich eines Vortrags und anschließender Diskussion vor Jahren in einer kölner Villa persönlich kennenlernen. Seine handsignierten Bücher werden immer einen Ehrenplatz meinem Bücherregal haben.
Es ist ein großer Verlust für uns Deutsche, diesen tapferen Mann, der sich für die Wahrhaftigkeit entschieden hatte, zu verlieren. Sein bis heute nicht aufgeklärter Tod macht mich immer noch fassungslos und traurig.
Um so mehr Danke ich Dir, liebe Cynthia, dass Du mich und viele andere hier an dieser Stelle an ihn erinnerst. ❤
A question about something else: Have you Canadians stopped laughing yet? Major General Paul Valaley disclosed yesterday that your PM is Fidel Castro's son!

Another quote from Shakespeare’s Hamlet comes to mind: “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark”. Thank you for your analysis.

Just a headzup - "fear and paranoia" link to source is dead. Good essay so far!
another dead link - "Churchill"
