If I might coin a word.

Geheime Staatspolizei(Gestapo)=Homeland Security

Abduction=Special Rendition

Torture=Enhanced Techniques

War=The Kinetic Option

Hence the euphemistification of fascism.

Steven Poole calls it 'Unspeak', in his (2006 Abacus)examination of this Orwellian enhanced technique applied to propagandist manipulation of public debate.

no doubt you can all think of your own examples of this daily ethical cleansing.
