>>>Propoganda, almost by definition, is at least slanted and at worst a fabrication. I remember during the Vietnam war the "Information" put out by the US and the "Propoganda" put out by the North Vietnamese. It's interesting to me to see an American President using the word "propoganda" in a postive sense (or else I'm misreading the quote).

Let's face it though. US would have won if they'd just nuked a few cities. That's how they won WW II. All that power and can't use it. Like becoming a black-belt in karate but knowing that if you used it in self-defence you'd be thrown in prison, so you let yourself get beaten.
