Cost of Imperialism

NPR had an effective recounting of the war run-up, including most of the touch-stone pronouncements from the major players (“smoking gun as a mushroom cloud” kind of rhetoric).  

As in the majority of fundamental philosophies, the present administration will see what it wants to see.  This deeply saddens me.
