You know, the Spanish didn't sink the battleship Maine, the Lusitania was not an innocent vessel but was loaded with munitions, the North Vietnamese did not attack the Seventh Fleet, and, of course, Saddam Hussein hated al Qaeda and had nothing to do with it, and yet the administration convinced 45 percent of the people that they were brothers in arms, when he would hang one from the nearest lamppost.
你知道吗？西班牙没有击沉缅因战舰， 卢西塔尼亚号也不是无辜的。 它载满武器弹药。 北越没有根本攻击第七舰队， 并且，当然，萨达姆 · 侯赛因痛恨基地组织， 跟他们一点儿关系也没有。 然而，政府当局却能让45%的美国人相信 萨达姆和基地组织关系紧密。 这样他（领导者）就找到了理由（去打仗）。
