They understand that they cannot survive if a majority of the American population becomes fully aware of their control of the news and entertainment media and their manipulation of public opinion and of the political process through that control. They know that they must limit the spread of information about themseles, about their power, about the crimes they have committed against humanity.

Eyewitnesses, who had been silent for decades, were speaking out about what had really happened during and immediately after the war, about who had done what to whom, about who were the real war criminals.
