However back to the World War II era for the unending wars that were already seen as essential for the domination of the "Grand Area" (which in the following decades grew to include more and more territories not included in the first version of the project), there was one big imperative: The American people had to be convinced of the necessity for these wars and the ability of the U.S. military to win them.
Thus the propaganda industry was born actually a concept heralded and developed as a quasi-scientific method by Sigmund Freud's nephew, Edward Bernays, a resident of the United States, who coined the term "the engineering of consent' which he saw as "the very essence of the democratic process'. The term "propaganda' was first used in 1922. Edward Bernays' carefully developed theories were of great use to the warmongers during and following World War II. [7]
In " Imperial Brain Trust: The Council on Foreign Relations and United States Foreign Policy" Shoup and Minter point to the importance of spreading the message of the benign influence of the United States to all corners of the planet.

Zbignew Brzezinski, one of the founders, along with David Rockefeller, of the trilateral commission (the executive arm of the Council on Foreign Relations) wrote the book 'The Grand Chessboard' to lay out the main lines for controlling the "Grand Area". No attempt at obfuscation here. The objectives are clearly laid out. 'The Grand Chessboard' equals "How to Conquer the World and barely being noticed".
