WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
PROTIP: In WWII, recruits in the Japanese army were told by their superior officers about their counterparts in the US Marines, that before they could become a fully-fledged Marine, each one had to kill, cook and eat a baby. And no, not as in a baby cow, or chicken*, or rabbit**, no.
A human baby.
Said Japanese soldiers believed what was told them, too. Why would they think otherwise? I mean, they were their superior officers after all; why should they lie to them?!
Indoctrination. 'Tis a beautiful thing to use as a tool to educate kids, is it not?:

Goebbels would be so proud. [/Godwin]
*- But US Marine recruits - during survival training - are given a live chicken to kill, pluck, cook & eat
**- Similarly for our Royal Marines. In their case, kill, skin, cook & eat a rabbit.
