Quote:A charismatic leader with a twisted message can bring a nation of conditioned zealots to the mass suicide of total war, and justify the most terrible of atrocities. Looking at the aggressions of the recent past centuries that was true of China, the Soviet Union, Japan, Italy, Turkey, Great Britain, France or Germany.But the leaders won't put *themselves* in harm's way. Crazy people with lots of power aren't stupid, they understand that they lose their power when they die, thus they send the young/poor/stupid to the dying for them.
