It's not just a question, as the old bromide says, of the winners determining what's history; skillful manipulation of "History" can help determine the winners. That's why I really hate the casual selection and bending of facts by our news outlets (both print and broadcast)to create or follow a story line. It makes it to easy to paper-over events and distort the public record. Every lie counts and every silence speaks volumes when extended out along the timeline of History. Yes, Hitler knew it. And he has lot's of company.
