Summary, etc. The thesis of this study is that Soviet propaganda against the United States is one of the main instruments of the Kremlin's aggressive foreign policy. It follows logically that one of the principal tasks of American policy is the analysis, exposure, and ideological annihilation of Soviet propaganda. The Kremlin's Korean war underlines the importance and urgency of this task. Moscow's handling of the propaganda and political warfare aspects of the Korean operation constitutes the latest and most intense phase of a ferocious hate campaign which the Soviet leaders have been conducting for several years.<br/><br/>Soviet propaganda presents the Korean war as a struggle for national liberation against American "imperialist" aggression. This line exemplifies two of the major Communist propaganda objectives discussed in this work. One is the attempt to mobilize the peoples of Asia and other economically underdeveloped areas against European and American "imperialism." The other s the exploitation of the world's yearning for peace and fear of war in the interests of Soviet expansion. But the Korean propaganda and the other Soviet political maneuvers and propa anda lines accompanying it, in particular the campaign for sig atures to the so-called "Stockholm petition" demanding the utlawing of atomic weapons and branding as war criminals the rst national leaders who might use such weapons in time of illustrate a still more fundamental characteristic of Soviet opaganda.
