What Makes Mortal Enemies Make Nice?
Updated: July 17, 2015
To "demonize the enemy" is a staple of war propaganda. But, you don't need a war to call your enemy demonic. Case in point, the United States and Iran for the past 35 years -- as in, "The Great Satan" vs. "The Axis of Evil." Each country really did use language that describes a mortal foe. So what on earth explains recent news of these two enemies shaking hands over a comprehensive nuclear agreement? This week's Pop Trends, Price Culture explains the otherwise inexplicable answer.
