News you won't see in controlled mainstream media.

Mark Twain wrote this in "Chronicle of Young Satan":*

"The loud little handful -- as usual -- will shout for the war.
The pulpit will -- warily and cautiously -- object... at first.
The great, big, dull bulk of the nation will rub its sleepy eyes
and try to make out why there should be a war, and will say,
earnestly and indignantly, "It is unjust and dishonorable, and
there is no necessity for it.

"Then the handful will shout louder. A few fair men on the other
side will argue and reason against the war with speech and pen,
and at first will have a hearing and be applauded, but it will not
last long; those others will outshout them, and presently the
antiwar audiences will thin out and lose popularity.

"Before long, you will see this curious thing: the speakers stoned
from the platform, and free speech strangled by hordes of furious
men...

"Statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting blame upon the nation
that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-
soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to
examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by
convince himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the
better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-
deception."

* Twain began this manuscript in 1897 but never finished it. He
later worked on two other versions of this material under the
working title "The Mysterious Stranger." After his death a
bowdlerized edition of these three manuscripts was published,
under the title "The Mysterious Stranger," by his literary
executor.
