Christopher Pyne says the curriculum must focus on Anzac Day and western history ?



Propaganda Techniques
The assertion is commonly used in advertising and modern propaganda. An assertion is an enthusiastic or energetic statement presented as a fact, although it is not necessarily true.

They often imply that the statement requires no explanation or back up, but that it should merely be accepted without question. 


The Abbott government is triggering a new battle over Australia’s culture and history as it launches a review of the national curriculum with a goal of removing “partisan bias”.

A bias exists or are they wanting to create a bias to thier beliefs, I seem to remember someone in Europe did the same thing.

We saw an announcement from another government seeking to sweep aside the existing curriculum and claiming there was not the right sort of politics in that curriculum.

Now we have appointed two trusted mates to do a six-month review to overturn a curriculum, we should regard that as worrying and bizarre, reckless, and it’s something that authoritarian governments have done before. Australia’s children deserve better.”


Goebbels quotes

“It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient repetition and a psychological understanding of the people concerned that a square is in fact a circle.
They are mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas and disguise.”

“Think of the press as a great keyboard for a government to play on."
.
“The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over.”
