"The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of societyconstitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country."-Edward Bernays, Propaganda "It is possible to "regiment the public mind every bit as much as an army regiments their bodies." These new techniques of regimentation of minds, he said, had to be used by the intelligent minorities in order to make sure that the slobs stay on the right course. We can do it now because we have these new techniques." - Noam Chomsky "The use of large-scale military force in volatile regions of underdeveloped countries is difficult to do right, has major unintended consequences and rarely turns out to be quick, effective, controlled and short lived." - Dennis Cutler Blair - Former United States Director of National Intelligence and is a retired United States Navy admiral.
