The War Architects Have a Gallery Page

It reads like a profile page of war criminals. See them all in one page, and revisit their cynical propaganda.

Try to imagine them in the dock at a war crimes tribunal. Ah, if you only had the courage!

Remember, you'll still be paying for their mess long after the revisionists have rewritten the sordid tales of these tiny zealots who sold their souls for a palmful of silver and a splash of limelight.

Oh, they had plenty of help. Remember the fairy tales their media friends wove throughout the national press during the post invasion glory?

"May 11, 2004: If Cheney and Rumsfeld chuckled when they read this column, they must have laughed aloud when when they read Brooks's next piece. 'There's something about our venture into Iraq that is inspiringly, painfully, embarrassingly, and quintesentially American,' Brooks writes. 'No other nation would have been hopeful enough to evangelize for democracy across the Middle East. No other nation would have been naïve enough to do it this badly. No other nation would be adaptable enough to recover from its own innocence and muddle its way to success, as I suspect we are about to do.' "

"Through this metamorphosis of personal failure into what he calls 'national style', Brooks is able to dissolve the granite egos of Cheney and Rumseld in the warm soup of a national 'we'. They didn't plan the war, the national psyche did. They didn't blunder, the national style did. The beauty of his thesis is that it leaves everyone as innocent at the end as they were at the beginning. No one can be blamed, so why search for accountability? Why look for a substantive conclusion about right and wrong, competence and blunders, when the scene of action is the national character not the Oval Office?"

Disney World for Warriors. Dumbo made a boo boo. How sweet. No justice needed. Let's imagine it never happened. Change the channel, please? Paris Hilton, we love you !!

Instead, how about this?

Can we not promote law and order in this country -- we've been swindled, the world's suffered dearly, where's the outrage? Why can't we bring justice to the perpetrators of war?

Or would we rather dream on?

It seems the State Department wants you to. They retired their War Crimes Tribunal page.
