propaganda that glorifies the soldier's cause and dehumanizes the enemy that pretty much sums it up, generally in combat both side have some grand mission (liberate Iraqi people, repel the Great Satan). I doing so both sides propaganda strives to dehumanize the opponent. The problem is many times this work all too well and the end result is a nation frothing at the mouth with blood lust and a leader that is all to willing to quench it with genocide. History, is full of examples of such happenings.
