 A U.S. airman’s mother pleaded guilty in a Japanese court to attempting to smuggle cannabis liquid into the country by mail in August and to possessing the drug while visiting her son on Okinawa in September.

Kasandra Michelle Stephens, 45, the mother of Tech. Sgt. DariusOmar Stephens, 26, a miliary working dog handler at Kadena Air Base, admitted Thursday in Naha District Court to violating Japan’s Cannabis Control Act and Customs Law.

Stephens told Judge Takashi Kato that she sent a couple of packages to her son’s post office box at Kadena after her daughter-in-law, Elena Barriga-Stephens, 22, requested she send some “pens” that she could share with a Japanese co-worker.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.
