In other words, Dubya LIED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!


"Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on a
farm 
want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to
come 
back to his farm in one piece? Naturally, the common people don't want
war: 
neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That
is 
understood. But after all it is the leaders of the country who determine
the 
policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the 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. That 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."
