“Naturally the common people don’t want war. But after all, it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it’s always a simple matter to drag people along whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.

--- Hermann Goering, Hitler’s Reich Marshall, at the Nuremberg Trials after World War II.
