Irrational? Come on? The only thing Bush talks about is Terrorism. Try to see him speak 2 minutes without bringing it up. The war on Terror is cleary Propagana, or to put it bluntly....A diversion. To paraphrase that famous quote by Hermann Goring at the Nuemberg trials discussing how Hitler kept the masses under control....
'Its easy, all you have to do is tell the people they are being attacked and denounce the pacifist for being unpatriotic. It works the same in every country'
Now you say an attack on G.W is IRRATIONAL? Well, I say the War on terror is irrational. Do the Rational math.....Lets see...in 2000 nobody was killed in America by terrorists. In 2001 2500 people were killed.(less than 1% of a typical year of tobbaco related death) 2002 nobody 2003 nobody...you get the picture. Now if we are going to get all worked up and ridiculous lets have a 'War on Cancer' It going to get half of us. But for some irrational reason it only manages to get 2% of the money be are blowing on the paranoid terror war.
Instead we continue with this stupid fictional war that never can be won, fighting enemies that for the most part we created. While we do this we make the rest of the people on Earth in practically every nation hate us.
