Politicians lie, but the odd thing about politicians in the US is that they believe their own lies.

National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan’s infamous line uttered shortly before the start of the war about how the region was quieter than it had been in decades reflected how much the administration had come to believe its own press releases.

They could have asked any Arab or read what we were saying, if they cared to know. Instead they go to extreme lengths to silence us and drown our voices with propaganda. “Inventing reality” is what it is.

That's the danger of having a really good propaganda machine, you end up getting high on your own supply.
