> 'This is total war. We are fighting a variety of enemies. There are lots
of them out there. All this talk about we are going to do Afghanistan, then
we will do Iraq..this is entirely the wrong way to go about it. If we just
let our vision of the world go forth, and we embrace it entirely and we
don't try to piece together clever diplomacy, but just wage a total war.
.our children will sing great songs about us years from now.' - Richard
Perle, 2003 - Washington insider, neocon architect of the 'War on Terror'

> Ever since the Florida electoral coup of 2000 the Bush regime has been
driving headlong for War without End. Every new war, every new law, every
new outrage is justified by reference to 911 as the founding Myth of the New
World Order and the 'Clash of Civilisations' which we are told is
inevitable. Aided by compliant media Blair has lied to us about sanctions,
about WMD in Iraq, about Israel/Palestine, about Africa and the
Environment... Now they are lying about Syria, Iran and the 'threat of
Islamic terrorism in the UK'.

maintained by violence. Anyone who has once proclaimed violence as their
method is inevitably forced to take the lie as their principle.' Alexander
