I know author H. Beam Piper mostly for his "Fuzzy" novels, which are charming and recommended, if you can find them.
But I recently found a collection of his short stories and in the second story read: "And a dictator, unsupported by the prestige of royalty, has no choice but to lead his people into foreign war, to keep them from turning upon him.”
Draw your own conclusion.
