This is a truly insightful article. Some of us already know some of the content of this article, but this author's conclusions set this one apart from others I've seen. I doubt it will happen, but it's good input for pondering. Also, this is a good article to pass on to others.

Step 1: Demonizing the Enemy

War is always sold by artificially demonizing the enemy.

Countries need to lie about their enemies in order to demonize them sufficiently so that the people will support the war.

Everyone knows that “truth is the first casualty of war“.

As Tom Brokaw said:

All wars are based on propaganda.

Posters prepared in foreign countries demonizing Americans are an obvious form of propaganda. For example, here are samples from Nazi Germany:

"It's Coming" and "It's Becoming" both need to be removed from our dialog for a time - Its already Here, and has been for quite some time.

They shove it in our faces on a daily basis.

Did you know that the basis of fascism is a bundle of sticks? The word fascism has as its root in the Latin word “Fasces” or a bundle of sticks. The individual sticks represent citizens and the bundle overall represents the state. So, when considering if any country is becoming more and more fascist, think of the bundle of sticks. Which is more important in the society, the individual or the state? Or maybe the individual or the corporation? To elaborate further on this theme, here are 14 points that past fascist governments have had in common, brought to us by Dr. Lawrence Britt in his essay, “Fascism Anyone?” Let me know if these criteria look at all familiar.

1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism

2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights

3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause

4. Supremacy of the Military

5. Rampant Sexism

6. Controlled Mass Media

7. Obsession with National Security

8. Religion and Government are Intertwined

9. Corporate Power is Protected

10. Labor Power is Suppressed

11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts

12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment

13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption

14. Fraudulent Elections

I would gladly lay aside the use of arms and settle matters by negotiation, but unless the whole will, the matter ends, and I take up my battle rifle, and thank God that He has put it within my grasp.

I do not subscribe to the use of the fasces symbol as representative that the US is a facist country.

The fasces symbol goes back to the Roman empire and was a symbol of the authority of the magistrate and represented strength through unity.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fasces

The facists of the 20th century, such as Mussolini, adopted the symbol for their own.
