War Stories

If you're still unsure of the arguments pro and con the impending war with Iraq, here are two pretty clear statements by two men who are widely respected for their personal integrity.  John McCain tells us why the war is just and necessary.  Jimmy Carter tells us why it isn't.  This is not to suggest either of them is completely right.

As we all know, William Randolph Hearst once told one of his reporters, "You furnish the pictures, and I'll furnish the war."  Well, he apparently didn't say that.  Spinsanity (one of the saner websites) debunks that story here.

As we all know, George W. Bush once told an audience, "The war on terror involves Saddam Hussein, the history of Saddam Hussein and his willingness to terrorize himself."  Well, he apparently didn't mean that. Spinsanity (still one of the saner websites) debunks that story here.
