drag the people along...

in a recent letter to the editor of newsweek, w.e. willingham of boone, north carolina, quotes hermann göring, hitler's second in command:
"Naturally the common people don't want war....But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament or a communist dictatorship....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 danger. It works the same in any country."
sound familiar, anyone?
