UN General Assembly
1947

For a long time past there has been waged in the Press, especially the American Press and the Press of countries like Turkey, which follow obediently in the wake of the United States, a furious campaign designed to prepare world public opinion for a new war. Every method of psychological effect is brought into play: newspapers, magazines, radio and cinema. This propaganda for a new war is conducted under a great variety of flags and pretexts; but however different the banner or pretext the essence of the propaganda remains the same: to justify a mad race for armaments, including atomic weapons, in the United States; to justify the boundless ambitions of influential circles in the United States to realize their expansionist schemes, which centre around the insane idea of world hegemony.
