Subject: RE: BS: Another Diplomat resigns
Most people would rather do almost anything than change a long cherished opinion, quite regardless of even damning evidence to the contrary. They achieve this by simply not paying much (if any) attention to that evidence, quickly dismissing it, and by cheering lustily whenever anyone speaks out supporting their established opinion.

The prescription is: Don't worry your head about the fact that the Bush administration keeps changing its reasons for attacking Iraq, don't worry about the fact that it is launching a completely unnecessary war against a pathetically weak opponent which is incapable of menacing the USA, don't worry about the cribbed college papers presented as up-to-date evidence by Blair, don't worry about the forged documents presented to the U.N. to prove things that never happened, don't worry about the lies, the evasions, the transparent greed for Iraqui oil, don't worry about the horrific collateral damage that will ruin the lives of millions for years to come, don't worry about the fact that almost the whole World now looks upon the USA as an out-of-control aggressor run by a criminal administration...don't even think about any of that!

Just focus on the monster Saddam...on how evil he is...on how he MUST be stopped now by "all necessary means"!!!!

Just keep focused on that, folks. Gotta love that Saddam, eh? He must be worth, oh, I'd say a good $100 billion to the American administration and its undeclared agenda. Without him, whatever would they do?

They'd have to find another "bad guy", that's what. Probably a former employee too, like Saddam and Bin Laden. Those bad guys love the Yankee dollar and the high tech weaponry it buys for them.
