So, in an age of mass travel, and migration, how do you propose a nation actually do that?
It was a lot easier when crossing the oceans took a month, and the people coming were all from the same cultural backgrounds.
I agree. Absolutely it is harder.
But have you noticed how fast information moves around the world? And how quickly it influences events?
That is where the war is being fought. And has to be won.
Our enemies know this.
We have to fight back with equally compelling stories and ignore those that would dismiss all such efforts as propaganda. Propaganda is just a word like any other. It is a means of propagating information, information that supports a particular belief or cause.
In an adversarial world, even moreso than in the court room, it is necessary that the defence be argued as forcefully and competently, with verve and skill, as the complaint.

We have an advantage that our enemies hate. People want to live in our countries. They want to leave their countries. We just have to tell people how we got here. It wasn't luck. It wasn't crime. It wasn't Satan and it wasn't God. It was hard choices and a lot of mistakes.
We need to get Hollywood back on side.
