Propaganda is used to persuade people to someone's viewpoint, and has been used in virtually every war. It gives us the reason to go off and kill other people. Propaganda designates one side as good and pure, the hero's of the other country they are about to face. Their opponents are cast as evil, viscious, malignant, and deserving of death. Of course on the side of the opposition, the roles are reversed. However, rarely are the true motives for going off to war revealed to the population at large.
