One reason that the public is confused is because if a lie is repeated over and over again, like in the liberal, anti-capitalist media, then it gets taken as gospel. Goebbels was right, if you repeat a lie, often enough, loud enough, then people will believe you.
I was shocked by this 10 years ago when a friend of mine, at that time, was expressing his viewpoint that the reason there was no peace in the Middle East was because of Israel. That’s the way it plays in Europe because of their media and it is shocking.
