...between the Wars, however, saw intense British and French maneuvering in the Arab world, machinations in which Syria was the pawn. As a result of these Western political manipulations in the area, strong anti-West sentiment festered in Syria, resentment which has remained and has been nurtured by Soviet propaganda and diplomacy...
...chief cause of the team emphasis is the fear that an Olympic loss is of great propaganda value to the enemy. But the U.S. finished well behind Russia in the winter Olympics without any noticeably ill effects. Indeed, it seems unlikely that many countries would assume from an American Olympic loss that the U.S. is an ineffective world leader. If American officials would take the lead in ignoring the team aspects, the U.S. might even gain a propaganda victory of sorts, for the smaller countries would feel better, and America would be taking a significant step in promoting world brotherhood...
Armless Parliament. With deliberate optimism, the President left unsaid one fundamental fact: the test which the U.N. faced last week is a bigger one than it was designed to meet.

In no broadcast was the promise of active help by the West given...
Facts Forum, the most expensive personal propaganda mill in the U.S., came to a halt last week. Launched five years ago by Dallas' Haroldson Lafayette Hunt, 67, whose oil, natural-gas and farmland interests give him an income of $200,000 a day, Facts Forum billed itself as a "nonpartisan, nonpolitical educational organization." But in its monthly Facts Forum News (reported circ. 100,000), a clutter of radio and TV shows, e.g., Reporters' Roundup, Topic of the Week, and widely distributed "public-opinion" polls, Hunt's nonprofit-and tax-free-foundation promoted a far-right, McCarthyist line...
