"Naturally, the common people don't want war, but after all, it is the leaders of a country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag people along whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. This is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country."How scary is it that the same kind of rhetoric used by the Nazis to explain their methodology has been (and is being) used in America today by this corrupt administration to justify attacking a sovereign country based on lies and manipulated intelligence and to attack its own critics at home?
Hermann Goering, Hitler's Reich-Marshall at the Nuremberg Trials
Let's just hope the few checks and balances still present in the institutions of this country, and the larger freedoms and availability of information Americans enjoy will be enough to stifle any efforts on the part of George W. Bush to bring the US back in time to the most horrifying period in the history of humanity.
George W. Bush, the WORST PRESIDENT EVER.
