According to Condi Rice, now _plagiarism_ is a high crime:

Condi stated in a N.Y. Times Op-Ed contribution that:

"Iraq's declaration even resorted to unabashed plagiarism, with lengthy passages of United Nations reports copied word-for-word ... and presented as original text." She continues: "It is a reflection of the regime's well-earned reputation for dishonesty and constitutes a _material_ breach of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1441..."

Does the Bush administration's National Security Advisor really think that plagiarism is now grounds for attacking a country and bombing its people? Has this administration gone totally insane???
