Umno vice-president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi today drew parallels between the opposition's propaganda efforts with the leaders of Nazi Germany.
 
In his speech to the joint opening of the annual assemblies of Umno's Wanita, Youth and Puteri wings tonight, Zahid recounted how Adolf Hitler and his propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels had a grip on German citizens through carefully crafted propaganda strategies.
 
"It was based on lies... Hitler once wrote: 'If you are going to tell a lie, tell a big one and if you tell it often enough, people will begin to believe it'.

"Through creative radio and film propaganda, they succeeded in controlling the minds of more than 80 million people.
 
"The opposition's plot in this country is almost the same," Zahid said.
