Pat Buchanan wrote this after Iraq war started but its relevant now with Iran increasingly in the cross hairs. The war theatres were planned well before 9/11, by the neoconservatives and Israel. "Iraq has WMD and wants to attack us"...and now same script with Iran, and people actually believe it!

On Sept. 12, Americans were still in shock when Bill Bennett told CNN that we were in “a struggle between good and evil,” that the Congress must declare war on “militant Islam,” and that “overwhelming force” must be used. Bennett cited Lebanon, Libya, Syria, Iraq, Iran, and China as targets for attack. Not, however, Afghanistan, the sanctuary of Osama’s terrorists. How did [neocon] Bennett know which nations must be smashed before he had any idea who attacked us?

Yes people still believe it--because they have the notion that our Gov't is really here to help us when they could not care less about the "people". Just their own self interest. The Neocons, the Council on Forein Relations, etc.have been at it for about 20 years, doing incredible damage to this nation and the world and most people don't even know who they are or what their agenda is. Y'all COULD LOOK IT UP ON THAT GOOGLE THING!
