“Israel is an embattled country. They rely very heavily on U. S. support. So they have developed a very sophisticated system of propaganda. They don't call it propaganda. They call it hasbarah.

The idea being that our position on everything is so obviously correct that if we only explain it to people, they will see that it is right.”
