Chadwick, Robert. "The Assyrians." In First Civilizations Ancient Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt,  
            77. 2nd ed. Oakville, Conn.: Equinox Pub., 2005. Chadwick argues that Assyrian kings 
            including Assurnasirpal II used "war propaganda" . . . "to strike fear and terror" in opponents.
            Such propaganda and actual tortuous acts were intended "not only to punish those who had  
            revolted, but to frighten the leaders of other cities and regions".
