And which country will be invaded next without any good reasons -
"I will give a propagandist reason for starting the war, no matter whether it is plausible or not. The victor will not be asked afterwards whether he told the truth or not. When starting and waging war it is not right that matters, but victory."

      I think the only reason Bush is taking this much flack is because we're losing more than we're gaining now . Our troops are getting hurt and there's no 'Saddam' to threaten the Iraqi people. Plus we can't get out cleanly. If Bush makes a good enough excuse to invade someone else, his numbers will go back up. That's politics.
      By the by, two points for anyone that can name the author of the quote. I thought it applied and wanted the thought behind it to be processed before who the author was.
