One of the assigned functions of our propaganda organs ( Press) is
to conceal from us the ruthlessness and the vicious ways our rulers operate domestically and internationally. By making them appear virtuous and leaders of other countries as conniving politicians or merciless tyrants, they perpetuate the idea that whatever is done in our name must be correct and our rulers do it only reluctantly.
That is the reason a man like Milbank can attack John Conyers's exercise of his rights as a citizen of a Democracy.
